________________General Description

The MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245 are 3V-
powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communications
interfaces with automatic shutdown/wakeup features
and high data-rate capabilities.
All devices achieve a 1µA supply current using Maxim’s
revolutionary AutoShutdown Plus™ feature. These
devices automatically enter a low-power shutdown
mode when the RS-232 cable is disconnected or the
transmitters of the connected peripherals are inactive,
and the UART driving the transmitter inputs is inactive
for more than 30 seconds. They turn on again when
they sense a valid transition at any transmitter or receiv-
er input. AutoShutdown Plus saves power without
changes to the existing BIOS or operating system.
The MAX3225/MAX3227/MAX3245 also feature
MegaBaud™ operation, guaranteeing 1Mbps for high-
speed applications such as communicating with ISDN
modems. The MAX3224/MAX3226/MAX3244 guarantee
250kbps operation. The transceivers have a proprietary
low-dropout transmitter output stage enabling true RS-
232 performance from a +3.0V to +5.5V supply with a
dual charge pump. The charge pump requires only four
small 0.1µF capacitors for operation from a 3.3V supply.
The MAX3224–MAX3227 feature a logic-level output
(READY) that asserts when the charge pump is regulat-
ing and the device is ready to begin transmitting.
All devices are available in a space-saving TQFN,
TSSOP, and SSOP packages.

_______________Detailed Description
Dual Charge-Pump Voltage Converter

The MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245’s internal
power supply consists of a regulated dual charge
pump that provides output voltages of +5.5V (doubling
charge pump) and -5.5V (inverting charge pump), over
the +3.0V to +5.5V range. The charge pump operates
in discontinuous mode: if the output voltages are less
than 5.5V, the charge pump is enabled; if the output
voltages exceed 5.5V, the charge-pump is disabled.
Each charge pump requires a flying capacitor (C1, C2)
and a reservoir capacitor (C3, C4) to generate the V+
and V- supplies.
The READY output (MAX3224–MAX3227) is low when
the charge pumps are disabled in shutdown mode. The
READY signal asserts high when V- goes below -4V.

MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245
RS-232 Transmitters
The transmitters are inverting level translators that
convert CMOS-logic levels to 5.0V EIA/TIA-232 levels.
The MAX3224/MAX3226/MAX3244 guarantee a
250kbps data rate (1Mbps for the MAX3225/MAX3227/
MAX3245) with worst-case loads of 3kΩin parallel with
1000pF, providing compatibility with PC-to-PC com-
munication software (such as LapLink®). Transmitters
can be paralleled to drive multiple receivers. Figure 1
shows a complete system connection.
When FORCEOFFis driven to ground or when the Auto-
Shutdown Plus circuitry senses that all receiver and
transmitter inputs are inactive for more than 30sec, the
transmitters are disabled and the outputs go into a high-
impedance state. When powered off or shut down, the
outputs can be driven to ±12V. The transmitter inputs
do not have pull-up resistors. Connect unused inputs to
GND or VCC.

the UART and interface are shut down.
MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245
RS-232 Receivers
The receivers convert RS-232 signals to CMOS-logic
output levels. The MAX3224–MAX3227 feature inverting
outputs that always remain active (Table 1). The
MAX3244/MAX3245 have inverting three-state outputs
that are high impedance when shut down (FORCEOFF
= GND) (Table 1).
The MAX3244/MAX3245 feature an extra, always
active, noninverting output, R2OUTB. R2OUTB output
monitors receiver activity while the other receivers are
high impedance, allowing Ring Indicator applications to
be monitored without forward biasing other devices
connected to the receiver outputs. This is ideal for sys-
tems where VCCis set to ground in shutdown to
accommodate peripherals such as UARTs (Figure 2).
The MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245 feature
an INVALIDoutput that is enabled low when no valid
RS-232 voltage levels have been detected on all receiv-
er inputs. Because INVALIDindicates the receiver
input’s condition, it is independent of FORCEON and
FORCEOFFstates (Figures 3 and 4).
AutoShutdown Plus Mode

The MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245 achieve a
1µA supplycurrentwith Maxim’s AutoShutdown Plus
feature, which operates when FORCEOFFis high and a
FORCEON is low. When these devices do not sense a
valid signal transition on any receiver and transmitter
input for 30sec, the on-board charge pumps are shut
down, reducing supply current to 1µA. This occurs if the
RS-232 cable is disconnected or if the connected

MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245
peripheral transmitters are turned off, and the UART dri-
ving the transmitter inputs is inactive. The system turns
on again when a valid transition is applied to any
RS-232 receiver or transmitter input. As a result, the sys-
tem saves power without changes to the existing BIOS
or operating system.
Figures 3a and 3b depict valid and invalid RS-232
receiver voltage levels. INVALIDindicates the receiver
input’s condition, and is independent of FORCEON and
FORCEOFFstates. Figure 3 and Tables 1 and 2 sum-
marize the operating modes of the MAX3224–
MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245 devices. FORCEON and
FORCEOFFoverride AutoShutdown Plus circuitry.
When neither control is asserted, the IC selects
between these states automatically based on the last
receiver or transmitter input edge received.
When shut down, the device’s charge pumps turn off,
V+ is pulled to VCC, V- is pulled to ground, the transmit-
ter outputs are high impedance, and READY
(MAX3224–MAX3227) is driven low. The time required
to exit shutdown is typically 100µs (Figure 6).
