GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The ADM3202/ADM3222/ADM1385 transceivers are high

speed, 2-channel RS-232/V.28 interface devices that operate

from a single 3.3 V power supply. Low power consumption and

a shutdown facility (ADM3222/ADM1385) make them ideal for                                                                                      

battery-powered portable instruments.

The ADM3202/ADM3222/ADM1385 parts conform to the                       

EIA-232E and CCITT V.28 specifications and operate at data

rates up to 460 kbps.

Four external 0.1 μF charge pump capacitors are used for the

voltage doubler/inverter, permitting operation from a single

3.3 V supply.

The ADM3222 contains additional enable and shutdown

circuitry. The ^EN input can be used to three-state the receiver

outputs. The ^SD input is used to power down the charge pump

and transmitter outputs, reducing the quiescent current to less

than 0.5 μA. The receivers remain enabled during shutdown

unless disabled using ^EN.

The ADM1385 contains a driver disable mode and a complete

shutdown mode.

The ADM3202 is available in a 16-lead PDIP, SOIC_W,

and SOIC_N, as well as a space-saving 16-lead TSSOP. The ADM3222

is available in 18-lead PDIP and SOIC_W and in 20-lead SSOP and TSSOP.

The ADM1385 is available in a 20-lead SSOP,

which is pin-compatible with the LTC1385 CG.
