RS-232 Transceivers with AutoShutdown Plus
If direct software control is desired, use INVALID to
indicate DTR or Ring Indicator signal. Tie FORCEOFF
and FORCEON together to bypass the AutoShutdown
Plus so the line acts like a SHDN input.
The capacitor type used for C1–C4 is not critical for
proper operation; polarized or nonpolarized capacitors
can be used. The charge pump requires 0.1µF capaci-
tors for 3.3V operation. For other supply voltages, see
Table 3 for required capacitor values. Do not use val-
ues smaller than those listed in Table 3. Increasing the
capacitor values (e.g., by a factor of 2) reduces ripple
on the transmitter outputs and slightly reduces power
consumption. C2, C3, and C4 can be increased without
changing C1’s value. However, do not increase C1
without also increasing the values of C2, C3, C4,
and C
the other capacitors).
When using the minimum required capacitor values,
make sure the capacitor value does not degrade
excessively with temperature. If in doubt, use capaci-
tors with a larger nominal value. The capacitor’s equiva-
lent series resistance (ESR), which usually rises at low
temperatures, influences the amount of ripple on V+
and V-.
In most circumstances, a 0.1µF V
is adequate. In applications that are sensitive to power-
supply noise, use a capacitor of the same value as
charge-pump capacitor C1. Connect bypass capaci-
tors as close to the IC as possible.
Figure 6 shows two transmitter outputs when exiting
shutdown mode. As they become active, the two trans-
mitter outputs are shown going to opposite RS-232 lev-
els (one transmitter input is high; the other is low). Each

The transmitter outputs display no ringing or undesir-
able transients as they come out of shutdown. Note that
the transmitters are enabled only when the magnitude
of V- exceeds approximately -3V.
