Description
The 3PEAK TP32xxN devices are 3.0V to 5.5V RS-232
transmitters/receivers which meet ElA/TIA-232 and V.28
/V.24 specifications, even at V
CC
= 3.0V. Each receiver
converts TIA/RS-232-F inputs to TTL/CMOS levels.
The devices have a typical threshold of 1.26V, a typical
hysteresis of 0.5V, and can accept ±25V inputs. Data
rates greater than 470kbps are guaranteed at worst case
load conditions. The devices are fully compatible with
3.3V-only systems, mixed 3.3V and 5.0V systems, and
5.0V-only systems.
The TP3232N/TP3222N has two receivers and two
transmitters. The TP3222N features a 1μA shutdown
mode that reduces power consumption in battery
powered portable systems. The TP3222N receivers
remain active in shutdown mode, allowing monitoring of
external devices while consuming only 1μA of supply
current.

Detailed Description
Charge-Pump Voltage Converter
The integrated charge pump in TP3232N/TP3222N generates negative power supply from a single supply VCC. The
charge pump requires a flying capacitors (C1, C2) and a reservoir capacitors (C3, C4) to generate V- supplies(Figure1).
At the same time a decoupling capacitor shall be applied between VCC and ground. Typical value for the flying
capacitor is 0.1uF. Typical value of the decoupling capacitor shall be same as or larger than that of the flying capacitor.
The TP3232N/TP3222N’s charge pump could provides output voltages of +5V and -5V under single +5V VCC.
