3.6.3 Application
The level shifter must be set at 2.8V compliant with a V28 electrical signal.
Figure 5: Example of RS-232 level shifter implementation for UART1
U1 chip also protects the Q64 against ESD at 15KV. (Air Discharge).
Recommended components:
R1, R2 : 15KΩ
C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 : 1uF
C6 : 100nF
C7 : 6.8uF TANTAL 10V CP32136 AVX
U1 : ADM3307EACP ANALOG DEVICES
J1 : SUB-D9 female
R1 and R2 are necessary only during Reset state to lift RI and DCD1 signals to high
level.
The ADM3307EACP chip is able to reach 921Kb/s*. If other level shifters are used,
make sure that their speeds are compliant with the UART1 speed.
*: For this baud rate, the power supply must be provided by an external regulator at
3.0 V.
The ADM3307EACP can be powered by an external regulator at 2.8 V (the baud rate
will be limited up to 720kbps).
If the UART1 interface is connected directly to a host processor, it is not necessary to
use level shifters. The interface can be connected as shown below:
