MAX253

Transformer Driver for Isolated RS-485 Interface

The MAX253 monolithic oscillator/power-driver is specifically designed to provide isolated power for an isolated RS-485 or RS-232 data interface. The device drives a center-tapped transformer primary from a 5V or 3.3V DC power supply. The secondary can be wound to provide any isolated voltage needed at power levels up to 1W.

The MAX253 consists of a CMOS oscillator driving a pair of N-channel power switches. The oscillator runs at double the output frequency, driving a toggle flipflop to ensure 50% duty cycle to each of the switches. Internal delays are arranged to ensure break-beforemake action between the two switches.

The SD pin puts the entire device into a low-power shutdown state, disabling both the power switches and oscillator.

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 in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
