• Manufacturer Part Number: MAX3226
• Description: 1uA Supply Current, 1Mbps, 3.0V to 5.5V, RS-232 Transceivers with AutoShutdown Plus
• Manufacturer: MAXIM [Maxim Integrated Products]

1µA Supply Current, 1Mbps, 3.0V to 5.5V,
RS-232 Transceivers with AutoShutdown Plus
Figure 1. Interface Under Control of PMU
When FORCEOFF is 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 V
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).
