NAME

FUNCTION

1

EN

Receiver Enable Control. Drive low for normal operation. Drive high to force the receiver output

(ROUT) into a high-impedance state.

2

C1+

Positive Terminal of the Voltage Doubler Charge-Pump Capacitor

PIN

3

V+

Positive Voltage Generated by the Charge Pump

4

C1-

Negative Terminal of the Voltage Doubler Charge-Pump Capacitor

8

RIN

RS-232 Receiver Input, ±15kV ESD protected

7

V-

Negative Voltage Generated by the Charge Pump

6

C2-

Negative Terminal of the Inverting Charge-Pump Capacitor

5

C2+

Positive Terminal of the Inverting Charge-Pump Capacitor

13

TOUT

RS-232 Transmitter Output, ±15kV ESD Protected

12

FORCEON

Drive high to override automatic circuitry, keeping transmitter and charge pump on. FORCEOFF

must be high (Table 1).

11

TIN

TTL/CMOS Transmitter Input

10

INVALID

Output of the Invalid Signal Detector. INVALID is pulled low if no valid RS-232 level is present on

the receiver input.

9

ROUT

TTL/CMOS Receiver Output

Pin Description

14

GND

Ground

15

+4.5V to +5.5V Supply Voltage

16

FORCEOFF

Force-Off Input, active low. Drive low to shut down transmitter, receiver, and on-board charge

pump. This overrides all automatic circuitry and FORCEON (Table 1).
