GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SP337E is a dual mode serial transceiver containing both RS-232 and RS-485/422 line drivers and receivers. The RS-232 mode provides three drivers and five receivers to support all eight signals commonly used in the DB9 serial port connector (3TX/5RX). In RS-485 mode the device features two independent high speed RS-485/422 transmit and receive channels (2TX/2RX). The default RS-485 configuration is full-duplex, but half-duplex operation can be obtained by tying together the TX and RI pins,
and the TXEN and RXEN signals.
The SP337E is pin compatible to MaxLinear’s SP334.
The SP337EB features a maximum data rate of 250kbps in RS-232 mode and a maximum data rat e of 15Mbps in RS-485. However, the SP337EU features a maximum data rate of 1Mbps in RS-232 mode and a maximum data rate of 15Mbps in RS-485 mode.
The MaxLinear-patented high efficiency charge pumps (5,306,954) deliver true RS-232 driver out put voltages from a single power supply from 3.3V to 5V. Charge pump outputs are self-monitored to minimize power consumption. The SP337E requires only four 0.1µF capacitors for complete functionality.
All RS-485 receivers or transceivers feature high impedance inputs which allow up to 256 transceivers on a single shared bus. When configured in RS -485 mode, each driver may be individually enabled or put into tri-state, simplifying use on shared bus es or for bidirectio...
