ST3243

ST3243 3 TO 5.5V, 400KBPS, RS-232 TRANSCEIVER WITH AUTO-POWERDOWN s s s s s s s 1µA SUPPLY CURRENT ACHIEVED WHEN IN AUTO-POWERDOWN 250Kbps MINIMUM GUARANTEED DATA RATE GUARANTEED 6V/µs SLEW RATE RANGE GUARANTEED MOUSE DRIVEABILITY 0.1µF EXTERNAL CAPACITORS MEET EIA/TIA-232 SPECIFICATIONS DOWN TO 3V AVAILABLE IN SO-28, SSOP-28 AND TSSOP28 SOP DESCRIPTION The ST3243 device consists of 3 drivers, 5 receivers and a dual charge-pump circuit. The device meets the requirements of EIA/TIA and V.28/V.24 comunication standards providing high data rate capability. The receiver R2 is always active to implement a wake-up feature for serial port. The ST3243 has 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 device is guaranteed to run at data rates of 250kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels. The Auto-powerdown feature functions when FORCEON is low and FORCEOFF is high. During this mode of operation, if the device does not sense a valid RS-232 signal, the driver outputs are disabled. If FORCEOFF is set low, both drivers and receivers (expert R2B) are shut off, and supply current is reduced to 1mA. Disconnecting SSOP TSSOP the serial port or turning off the peripheral drives causes the auto-powerdown condition to occur. Auto-powerdown can be disabled when FORCEON and FORCEOFF are high, and should be done when driving a serial mouse. With Auto-powerdown enabled, the device is activated...
