description/ordering information
The SN65C3221 and SN75C3221 consist of one line driver, one line receiver, and a dual charge-pump circuit
with
15-kV ESD protection pin to pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND). These devices provide the
electrical interface between an asynchronous communication controller and the serial-port connector. The
charge pump and four small external capacitors allow operation from a single 3-V to 5.5-V supply. These devices
operate at data signaling rates up to 1 Mbit/s and a driver output slew rate of 24 V/
s to 150 V/
s.
Flexible control options for power management are available when the serial port is inactive. The
auto-powerdown feature functions when FORCEON is low and FORCEOFF is high. During this mode of
operation, if the devices do not sense a valid RS-232 signal on the receiver input, the driver output is disabled.
If FORCEOFF is set low and EN is high, both the driver and receiver are shut off, and the supply current is
reduced to 1
A. Disconnecting the serial port or turning off the peripheral drivers causes the auto-powerdown
condition to occur. Auto-powerdown can be disabled when FORCEON and FORCEOFF are high. With
auto-powerdown enabled, the device is activated automatically when a valid signal is applied to the receiver
input. The INVALID output notifies the user if an RS-232 signal is present at the receiver input. INVALID is high
(valid data) if the receiver input voltage is greater than 2.7 V or less than -2.7 V, or has been between -0.3 V
and 0.3 V for less than 30
s. INVALID is low (invalid data) if the receiver input voltage is between -0.3 V and
0.3 V for more than 30
s. Refer to Figure 5 for receiver input levels.

Stresses beyond those listed under "absolute maximum ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "recommended operating conditions" is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES:
1. All voltages are with respect to network GND.
2. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max),
JA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) - TA)/
JA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150
C can affect reliability.
3. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7.
