_______________Detailed Description
Dual Charge-Pump Voltage Converter
The MAX3224E鈥揗AX3227E/MAX3244E/MAX3245E鈥檚
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 (MAX3224E鈥揗AX3227E) is low
when the charge pumps are disabled in shutdown
mode. The READY signal asserts high when V- goes
below -4V.
RS-232 Transmitters
The transmitters are inverting level translators that
convert CMOS-logic levels to 5.0V EIA/TIA-232 levels.
The MAX3224E/MAX3226E/MAX3244E guarantee a
