TransZorb is a registered trademark of General Instruments, GSI UO S The LT (R)1280A/LT1281A are dual RS232 driver/receiver pairs with integral charge pump to generate RS232 voltage levels from a single 5V supply. These circuits feature rugged bipolar design to provide operating fault tolerance and ESD protection unmatched by competing CMOS designs. Using only 0.1F external capacitors, these circuits consume only 40mW of power, and can operate to 120kbaud even while driving heavy capacitive loads. New ESD structures on the chip allow the LT1280A/LT1281A to survive multiple 10kV strikes, eliminating the need for costly TransZorbs(R) on the RS232 line pins. The LT1280A/ LT1281A are fully compliant with EIA RS232 standards. Driver outputs are protected from overload, and can be shorted to ground or up to 30V without damage. During shutdown or power-off conditions, driver and receiver outputs are in a high impedance state, allowing line sharing.

This pin should be decoupled with a 0.1F ceramic capacitor close to the package pin. Insufficient supply bypassing can result in low output drive levels and erratic charge pump operation. GND: Ground Pin. ON/OFF: A TTL/CMOS Compatible Operating Mode Control. A logic low puts the LT1280A in shutdown mode. Supply current drops to zero and both driver and receiver outputs assume a high impedance state. A logic high fully enables the device. V +: Positive Supply Output (RS232 Drivers). V + 2VCC - 1.5V. This pin requires an external charge storage capacitor C 0.1F, tied to ground or VCC. Larger value capacitors may be used to reduce supply ripple. With multiple transceivers, the V+ and V - pins may be paralleled into common capacitors. V -: Negative Supply Output (RS232 Drivers). V - - (2VCC - 2.5V). This pin requires an external charge storage capacitor C 0.1F. Larger value capacitors may be used to reduce supply ripple. With multiple transceivers, the V+ and V - pins may be paralleled into common capacitors. TR1 IN, TR2 IN: RS232 Driver Input Pins. These inputs are TTL/CMOS compatible. Inputs should not be allowed to float. Tie unused inputs to VCC. TR1 OUT, TR2 OUT: Driver Outputs at RS232 Voltage Levels. Driver output swing meets RS232 levels for loads up to 3k. Slew rates are controlled for lightly loaded lines. Output current capability is sufficient for load conditions up to 2500pF. Outputs are in a high impedance state when in shutdown mode or VCC = 0V. Outputs are fully shortcircuit protected from V - + 30V to V + - 30V. Applying higher voltages will not damage the device if the overdrive is moderately current limited. Short circuits on one output can load the power supply generator and may disrupt the signal levels of the other outputs. The driver outputs are protected against ESD to 10kV for human body model discharges. REC1 IN, REC2 IN: Receiver Inputs. These pins accept RS232 level signals (30V) into a protected 5k terminating resistor. The receiver inputs are protected against ESD to 10kV for human body model discharges. Each receiver provides 0.4V of hysteresis for noise immunity. Open receiver inputs assume a logic low state. REC1 OUT, REC2 OUT: Receiver outputs with TTL/CMOS Voltage Levels. Outputs are in a high impedance state when in shutdown mode to allow data line sharing. Outputs are fully short-circuit protected to ground or VCC with the power ON, OFF or in the shutdown mode. C1 +, C1 -, C2 +, C2 -: Commutating Capacitor Inputs. These pins require two external capacitors C 0.1F: one from C1+ to C1- and another from C2+ to C2 -. C1 should be deleted if a separate 12V supply is available and connected to pin C1+. Similarly, C2 should be deleted if a separate - 12V supply is connected to pin V -. 5 LT1280A/LT1281A U ESD PROTECTIO ESD Test Circuit The RS232 line inputs of the LT1280A/LT1281A have onchip protection from ESD transients up to 10kV. The protection structures act to divert the static discharge safely to system ground. In order for the ESD protection to function effectively, the power supply and ground pins of the circuit must be connected to ground through low impedances. The power supply decoupling capacitors and charge pump storage capacitors provide this low impedance in normal application of the circuit. The only constraint is that low ESR capacitors must be used for bypassing and charge storage. ESD testing must be done with pins VCC, VL, V +, V -, and GND shorted to ground or connected with low ESR capacitors. 1 + + + 0.1F RS232 LINE PINS PROTECTED TO 10kV 18 17 C1+ 3 V+ 4 C1- 5 C2+ RX1 IN 14 6 C2 - RX1 OUT 13 7 V- 0.1F + ON/OFF 2 0.1F 0.1F NC LT1280A 5V VCC GND + 16 0.1F DR1 OUT 15 RS232 LINE PINS PROTECTED TO 10kV DR1 IN 12 DR2 IN 11 8 DR2 OUT RX2 OUT 10 9 RX2 IN 1280A ESD TC UO TYPICAL APPLICATI Supporting an LT1039 (Triple Driver/Receiver) SHUTDOWN 5V 18 TTL INPUT TTL INPUT VCC ON/OFF LT1280A 17 11 8 12 15 18 RS232 OUTPUT TTL INPUT RS232 OUTPUT TTL INPUT TTL INPUT TTL OUTPUT 14 13 RS232 INPUT TTL OUTPUT VCC ON/OFF LT1039 15 4 13 6 11 8 16 3 + 1F + 1F 9 10 2 RS232 INPUT RS232 OUTPUT RS232 OUTPUT RS232 INPUT TTL OUTPUT 14 5 RS232 INPUT 30k 5k C1+ 4 C1- 5 C2 + 6 C2 - TTL OUTPUT 7 12 RS232 INPUT 30k GND 16 6 RS232 OUTPUT 30k 5k TTL OUTPUT 17 V+ 3 V- 7 + 1F + 1F 1 V+ 9 V- GND 10 LT1280A * TA04 LT1280A/LT1281A U PACKAGE DESCRIPTIO Dimensions in inches (millimeters) unless otherwise noted.
