description

The MAX3238 device consists of five line drivers, three line receivers, and a dual charge-pump circuit with
±15-kV ESD protection pin to pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND). The device meets the
requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F and provides the electrical interface between notebook and subnotebook
computer applications. The charge pump and four small external capacitors allow operation from a single 3-V
to 5.5-V supply . In addition, the device includes an always-active noninverting output (ROUT1B), which allows
applications using the ring indicator to transmit data while the device is powered down. These devices operate
at data signaling rates up to 250 kbit/s, and at a maximum of 30-V/µs driver output slew rate.

Flexible control options for power management are featured when the serial port and driver inputs are inactive.
The auto-powerdown plus feature functions when FORCEON is low and FORCEOFF
of operation, if the device does not sense valid signal transitions on all receiver and driver inputs for 30 s, the
built-in charge-pump and drivers are powered down, reducing the supply current to 1 µA. By disconnecting the
serial port or placing the peripheral drivers off, auto-powerdown plus occurs if there is no activity in the logic
levels for the driver inputs. Auto-powerdown plus can be disabled when FORCEON and FORCEOFF
With auto-powerdown plus enabled, the device automatically activates once a valid signal is applied to any
receiver or driver input. INVALID is high (valid data) if any receiver input voltage is greater than 2.7 V or less
than –2.7 V , or has been between –0.3 V and 0.3 V for less than 30 µs. INV ALID is low (invalid data) if all receiver
input voltages are between –0.3 V and 0.3 V for more than 30 µs. Refer to Figure 5 for receiver input levels.

The MAX3238C is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The MAX3238I is characterized for operation
from –40°C to 85°C.
