Figure 4. Charge Pump — Phase 1
In actual system applications, it is quite possible
for signals to be applied to the receiver inputs
before power is applied to the receiver circuitry.
This occurs, for example, when a PC user attempts
to print, only to realize the printer wasn’t turned on.
In this case an RS-232 signal from the PC will
appear on the receiver input at the printer. When
the printer power is turned on, the receiver will
operate normally. All of these enhanced devices
are fully protected.
Charge Pump
The charge pump is a Sipex–patented design
(5,306,954) and uses a unique approach com-
pared to older less–efficient designs. The charge
pump still requires four external capacitors, but
uses a four–phase voltage shifting technique to
attain symmetrical power supplies. There is a
free–running oscillator that controls the four
phases of the voltage shifting. A description of
each phase follows.
