MAX3320A/B/L/T
_______________General Description
The MAX3320 combines a microprocessor (µP) supervisory circuit with an RS-232 transceiver. The power-on
reset performs a single function: it asserts a reset signal
whenever the VCC supply voltage declines below a preset threshold, staying asserted for at least 100ms after
VCC rises above the reset threshold. The MAX3320 has
an active-low RESET output, which is guaranteed to be in
the correct state for VCC down to 1V. The reset comparator is designed to ignore fast transients on VCC. Reset
thresholds suitable for operation with a variety of supply
voltages are available.

______________ Detailed Description
Dual Charge-Pump Voltage Converter
The MAX3320’s 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) while V CC remains in the 3V to 5.5V
range. The charge pumps operate in discontinuous
mode; they are enabled if the output voltages are less
than 5.5V, and disabled if output voltages exceed 5.5V.
Each charge pump requires a flying capacitor (C1, C2)
and a reservoir capacitor (C3, C4) to generate the V+
and V- supplies.

RS-232 Transmitters
The transmitters are inverting level translators that convert CMOS-logic levels to 5V EIA/TIA-232 levels. The
MAX3320 transmitters guarantee a 250kbps data rate
with worst-case loads of 3kΩ in parallel with 1000pF,
providing compatibility with PC-to-PC communication
software (such as LapLink™). Transmitters can be paralleled to drive multiple receivers. Figure 1 shows a
complete system connection.
When FORCEOFF is driven to ground, the transmitter’s
outputs become high impedance. When the
AutoShutdown Plus circuitry senses that all receiver
and transmitter inputs are inactive for more than 30sec,
the transmitters turn off and the outputs go into a highimpedance state, but the receivers remain active.
When the power is off or the MAX3320 is shut down,
outputs may be driven up to ±12V.
The transmitter inputs do not have pull-up resistors.
Connect unused inputs to GND or VCC.

RS-232 Receivers
The receivers convert RS-232 signals to CMOS-logic output levels. All receivers have inverting outputs and are
active in shutdown FORCEOFF (Table 1).
AutoShutdown Plus Mode
Maxim’s AutoShutdown Plus feature, which operates
when FORCEOFF is high and FORCEON is low, achieves
a 4µA supply current. When the MAX3320 senses no
valid signal levels on all receiver and transmitter inputs for
30sec, the on-board power supply and drivers shut off,
_______________________________________________________________________________________
3V to 5.5V, up to 250kbps True RS-232 Transceiver
with 4µA AutoShutdown Plus and Power-On Reset
Tables 1 and 2 and Figure 2 summarize the MAX3320’s
operating modes. FORCEON and FORCEOFF override
the automatic circuitry and force the transceiver into its
normal operating state or into its low-power standby
state. When neither control is asserted, the IC enters
AutoShutdown Plus mode and selects between these
states automatically, based on the last receiver or
transmitter input edge received.
When shut down, the device’s charge pumps turn off,
V+ decays to VCC , V- decays to ground, and the transmitter outputs turn off (high impedance). The time
required to exit shutdown is typically 25µs (Figure 3a).
Software-Controlled Shutdown
If direct software control is desired, use INVALID to indicate DTR or Ring Indicator signal. Connect FORCEOFF
and FORCEON together to bypass the AutoShutdown

Power-On Reset
In addition to issuing a reset to the microprocessor (µP)
during power-up, power-down, and brownout conditions, the MAX3320 is relatively immune to shortduration, negative-going V CC transitions (glitches).
Typically, a VCC transient that goes 100mV below the
reset threshold and lasts 20µs or less does not cause a
reset pulse (see Typical Operating Characteristics).
Additional bypass capacitance mounted as close as
possible to the VCC pin provides additional transient
immunity.
MAX3320
MAX3320A/B/L/T
reducing supply current to 4µA. This occurs if the RS-232
cable is disconnected or the connected peripheral transmitters turn off. The system turns on again when a valid
transition occurs at any RS-232 receiver or transmitter
input. As a result, the system saves power without
changes to the existing BIOS or operating system. The
INVALID output is high when the receivers are active.
Since INVALID indicates the receiver inputs’ condition, it
can be used in any mode (Figure 2).

__________Applications Information
Ensuring a Valid Reset Output
Down to VCC = 0V
When VCC falls below 1V, RESET no longer sinks current: it becomes an open circuit. Therefore, highimpedance CMOS logic inputs connected to RESET
8
can drift to undefined voltages. This presents no problem in most applications, since most µPs and other circuitry is inoperative with V CC below 1V. However, in
applications where RESET must be valid down to 0V,
add a pull-down resistor to ground, holding RESET low
(Figure 4). R1’s value is not critical; 100kΩ is large
enough not to load RESET, and small enough to pull it
to ground.
Capacitor Selection
The capacitor type used for C1–C4 is not critical for
proper operation; use either polarized or nonpolarized
capacitors. The charge pump requires 0.1µF capacitors for 3.3V operation. For other supply voltages, refer
to Table 3 for required capacitor values. Do not use values 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 CBYPASS, to maintain the proper ratios (C1 to
the other capacitors).

When using the minimum required capacitor values,
make sure the capacitor value does not degrade
excessively with temperatures outside the 0°C to +70°C
range. If in doubt, use capacitors with a larger nominal
value. The capacitor's equivalent series resistance
(ESR), which usually rises at low temperatures, influences the amount of ripple on V+ and V-.
Transmitter Outputs
when Exiting Shutdown
Figure 5 shows two transmitter outputs when exiting
shutdown mode. As they become active, the two transmitter outputs go to opposite RS-232 levels (one transmitter input is high; the other is low). Each transmitter is
loaded with 3kΩ in parallel with 2500pF. The transmitter
outputs display no ringing or undesirable transients as
they exit shutdown. Note that the transmitters are
enabled only when the magnitude of V- exceeds
approximately 3V.
