Product Description
 
The UM3243 series are 3-driver/5-receiver 3V-5.5V powered RS-232 transceivers featuring Auto Power-Off and low supply current, when no valid RS-232 level signal is sensed on any receiver inputs, the charge pump circuit and drivers will be powered off. Disconnection of the RS-232 cable or poweroff of the transmitters of the attaching peripherals will lead to Power-Off mode. When a valid level is applied to any RS-232 receiver inputs, the chip will turn on again. The Auto Power-Off mode helps to save power without changing the existing system.
The UM3243 transceivers have a regulated discontinuous mode dual charge pump power supply and low-dropout transmitters, which combine to deliver true RS-232 performance from a single +3V to +5.5V supply. Data rate of 250kbps is guaranteed.
The UM3243 needs only four 0.1μF capacitors in 3.3V operation, and can operate from input voltages ranging from +2.7V to +5.5V. They are ideal for 3.3V-only systems, mixed 3.3V and 5.0V systems, or 5.0V-only systems that require true RS-232 performance or EIA/TIA-562 levels of ±3.7V with supply voltages as low as 2.7V.
The UM3243 includes one complementary always-active receiver. This receiver can monitor an external device (such as a modem) in Power-Off. The UM3243 also includes an always-active INVALID(_________________) output which indicates valid RS-232 signal levels on any receiver inputs. It is usually used in UART wakeup. The UM3243 also features enhanced ESD protection with ±8kV for human body mode and ±8kV for IEC61000-4-2 contact discharge mode.
