Datasheet

By connecting FORCEON to INVALID, the MAX3224–
MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245 shut down when no valid
receiver level and no receiver or transmitter edge is
detected for 30sec, and wake up when a valid receiver
level or receiver or transmitter edge is detected.
By connecting FORCEON and FORCEOFF to INVALID,
the MAX3224–MAX3227/MAX3244/MAX3245 shutdown
when no valid receiver level is detected and wake up
when a valid receiver level is detected (same function-
ality as AutoShutdown feature on MAX3221/MAX3223/
MAX3243).
A mouse or other system with AutoShutdown Plus may
need time to wake up. Figure 5 shows a circuit that
forces the transmitters on for 100ms, allowing enough
time for the other system to realize that the MAX3244/
MAX3245 is awake. If the other system outputs valid
RS-232 signal transitions within that time, the RS-232
ports on both systems remain enabled.
