description/ordering information (continued)
Flexible control options for power management are featured when the serial-port and driver inputs are inactive.
The auto-powerdown plus feature functions when FORCEON is low and FORCEOFF is high. During this mode
of operation, if the device does not sense valid signal transitions on all receiver and driver inputs for 30 s, the
built-in charge-pump and drivers are powered down, reducing the supply current to 1 µA. By disconnecting the
serial port or placing the peripheral drivers off, auto-powerdown plus will occur if there is no activity in the logic
levels for the driver inputs. Auto-powerdown plus can be disabled when FORCEON and FORCEOFF are high.
With auto-powerdown plus enabled, the device automatically activates once a valid signal is applied to any
receiver or driver input. INVALID is high (valid data) if any receiver input voltage is greater than 2.7 V or less
than −2.7 V or has been between −0.3 V and 0.3 V for less than 30 µs. INVALID is low (invalid data) if all receiver
input voltages are between −0.3 V and 0.3 V for more than 30 µs. Refer to Figure 5 for receiver input levels.
