NAME
FUNCTION
14 1 19 1 22 EN
Receiver Enable Control. Drive low for normal
operation. Drive high to force the receiver outputs
(R_OUT) into a high-impedance state.

Drive high to override automatic circuitry keeping
transmitters and charge pump on (FORCEOFF must be
high) (Table 1).

FORCEOF
F
Force-Off Input, active low. Drive low to shut down
transmitters, receivers (MAX3243E, except R2OUTB),
and on-board charge pump. This overrides all
automatic circuitry and FORCEON (Table 1).
