Phase 1
— VDD charge storage — S1 and S2 are
closed. S3 and S4 are open. During this
phase of the clock cycle, the positive side of
C1 is connected to GND. The negative side
of capacitor C2 is now 2 times VCC.
Phase 2
— VDD transfer — S1 and S2 are closed.
S3 and S4 are open. The negative side of
capacitor C2 is connected to C2-, The posi-
tive side of C2 is connected to GND. This
transfers a negative generated voltage to
C2. A negative voltage is built up on the
negative side of C2 with each cycle of the
oscillator. If the current drawn is small, the
output voltage at C2- will be close to -Vdd.
As the current drawn from C2- increases, the
output voltage will decrease with magnitude.
The charge pump cycle will continue as long
as the operational conditions for the internal
oscillator present. Refer to Figure 8 for the
internal charge pump waveforms.
DESCRIPTION
Standby Circuitry
The SP2209E device incorporates power
saving, on board standby circuitry. The
standby current is typically less than
100µA. The SP2209E device automati-
cally enters a standby mode when the VDD
power supply is removed. An internal com-
parator generates an internal shutdown
signal that disables the external oscillator
disengaging the charge pump. Refer to
Figure 9 for the internal standby detection
circuit.
The inverted output V- goes to ground.
All driver outputs are disabled. The inputs
for receivers 1 through 4 for both ports A
and B are at high impedance. Receiver 5
for both ports A and B remain fully active
as power management receiver lines to
system peripherals that may come online
during the standby mode.
