C1-
C2+
C2-
V-
R_IN
Receiver Enable Control. Drive low for normal
operation. Drive high to force the receiver outputs
(R_OUT) into a high-impedance state.
Positive terminal of the voltage doubler Charge-Pump
Capacitor
+5.5V generated by the charge pump
Negative terminal of the voltage doubler Charge-Pump
Capacitor
Positive terminal of inverting Charge-Pump Capacitor
Negative terminal of inverting Charge-Pump Capacitor
-5.5V generated by the charge pump
RS-232 Receiver Inputs
R_OUT TTL/CMOS Receiver Outputs
INVALID
Output of the Valid Signal Detector. INVALID is enabled
high if a valid RS-232 level is present on any receiver
input.
T_IN TTL/CMOS Transmitter Inputs
Drive high to override automatic circuitry keeping
FORCEON transmitters and charge pump on (FORCEOFF must be
high) (Table 1).
T_OUT RS-232 Transmitter Outputs
R2OUTB
TTL/CMOS Noninverting Complementary Receiver
Output. Always active.
GND Ground
VCC
+3.0V to +5.5V Supply Voltage
FORCEOF
F
Force-Off Input, active low. Drive low to shut down
transmitters, receivers (MAX3243E, except R2OUTB),
and on-board charge pump. This overrides all
automatic circuitry and FORCEON (Table 1).
SHDN Shutdown Control, Active Low
