The MAX200–MAX209/MAX211/MAX213 consist of three
sections: charge-pump voltage converters, drivers (trans-
mitters), and receivers. Each section is described in detail.

The +5V to ±10V conversion is performed by two charge-
pump voltage converters (Figure 4). The first uses capaci-
tor C1 to double +5V to +10V, storing +10V on the V+
output filter capacitor, C3. The second chargepump volt-
age converter uses capacitor C2 to invert +10V to -10V,
storing -10V on the V- output filter capacitor, C4.

When V
= +5V, the typical driver output-voltage swing
CC
is ±8V when loaded with a nominal 5kΩ RS-232 receiver.
The output swing is guaranteed to meet the EIA/TIA-232E
and V.28 specifications, which call for ±5V minimum out-
put levels under worst-case conditions. These include

OUTPUT ENABLE TIME
400kΩ pullup resistors to V
are included onchip. Since
CC
all drivers invert, the pullup resistors force the outputs of
unused drivers low. The input pullup resistors typically
source 15μA; therefore, the driver inputs should be driven
high or open circuited to minimize power-supply current
in shutdown mode.
