The MAX253 is a monolithic oscillator/power-driver,
specifically designed to provide isolated power for an
is ola te d RS-485 or RS-232 d a ta inte rfa c e . It
drives a center-tapped transformer primary from a 5V
or 3.3V DC p owe r s up p ly. The s e c ond a ry c a n b e
wound to provide any isolated voltage needed at power
levels up to 1W.
♦ Power-Supply Transformer Driver for Isolated
RS-485/RS-232 Data-Interface Applications
♦ Single +5V or +3.3V Supply
♦ Low-Current Shutdown Mode: 0.4µA
♦ Pin-Selectable Frequency: 350kHz or 200kHz
♦ 8-Pin DIP, SO, and µMAX Packages
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 flip-flop
to e ns ure 50% d uty c yc le to e a c h of the s witc he s .
Internal delays are arranged to ensure break-before-
make 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.

and are intended for industrial communications and control
applications where very high voltage transients, differential
ground potentials, or high noise may be encountered.
Is o la t e d RS -2 3 2 Da t a In t e rfa c e
The MAX253 is ideal for isolated RS-232 data-interface
applications requiring more than four transceivers. The
1W power output capability of the MAX253 enables it to
drive more than 10 transceivers simultaneously. Figure 5
shows the typical application circuit for a complete
120kbps isolated RS-232 data interface. The figure
also shows how the Sharp PC417 optocouplers can be
replaced by the lower-cost 4N25 devices to achieve
data-transfer rates up to 9.6kbps.
Table 2 lists transformer characteristics for the applica-
tions of Figures 3–10. Some suggested manufacturers
of transformers, transformer cores, and optocouplers
are listed in Table 3, along with their respective phone
and fax numbers.
Important layout considerations include:
♦ For maximum isolation, the “isolation barrier” should not
be breached. Connections and components from one
side should not be located near those of the other side.
For 3.3V operation, substitute the primary portion of
Figure 5 with the circuit of Figure 7.
♦ Since the optocoupler outputs are relatively high-
impedance nodes, they should be located as close
as possible to the Maxim interface IC. This mini-
mizes stray capacitance and maximizes data rate.
For applications requiring two transceivers or fewer,
refer to the MAX250/MAX251 or MAX252 data sheet.
Is o la t e d P o w e r S u p p lie s
The MAX253 is a versatile isolated power driver, capa-
ble of driving a center-tapped transformer primary from
a 5V or a 3.3V DC power supply (see Figures 6 and 7).
The secondary can be wound to provide any isolated
voltage needed at power levels up to 1W with a 5V sup-
ply, or 600mW with a 3.3V supply. Figure 6 shows a
typical 5V to isolated 5V application circuit that delivers
up to 200mA of isolated 5V power.
Refer to the µMAX package information for pin spacing
and physical dimensions.
Is o la t e d RS -4 8 5 Da t a In t e rfa c e
The MAX253 p owe r-s up p ly tra ns forme r d rive r is
designed specifically for isolated RS-485 data-interface
applications. The application circuits of Figures 3 and 4
combine the MAX253 with a low-dropout linear regulator,
a transformer, several high-speed optocouplers, and a
Maxim RS-485 interface device. With a few modifica-
tions to these circuits, full-duplex communications can
be implemented by substituting the MAX481/MAX485
with the MAX490/MAX491 (for data rates up to 2.5Mbps)
or s ub s tituting the MAX483/MAX487 with the

and may be useful for other applications, as shown in
Figure 4. The average current in each MAX253 switch
must still be limited to less than 200mA, so the total
power available is approximately 600mW.

Output-Ripple Filtering
A simple lowpass pi-filter (Figures 6 and 7) can be added
to the output to reduce output ripple noise to about
10mVp-p. The cutoff frequency shown is 21kHz. Since the
filter inductor is in series with the circuit output, minimize its
resistance so the voltage drop across it is not excessive.

two optocouplers in the same package sharing the same
LED; one detector is across the isolation barrier, the
other is on the same side as the LED (Figure 8). The lat-
ter detector is used to generate a feedback signal identi-
cal to the signal on the isolated side of the barrier. The
current signal transferred across the barrier is converted
back to a voltage that matches the input in the 100mV to
500mV range. This voltage is then transformed to the
final 4mA to 20mA current signal range by the second
MAX480, Darlington stage, and the 20Ω resistor.

optocoupler. This device is unique in that it corrects

allowance for worst-case losses in the rectifiers. Since
the turns ratio determined in this manner will ordinarily
produce a much higher voltage at the secondary under
conditions of high input voltage and/or light loading, be
careful to prevent an overvoltage condition from occur-
ring (see Output Voltage vs. Load Current in the Typical
Operating Characteristics).
is a good choice for through-hole applications, and the
NIEC* SB05W05C dual in an SOT-23 package is rec-
ommended for surface-mount applications. Use the
higher frequency setting to reduce ripple.
Output Filter Capacitor
In applications sensitive to output-ripple noise, the out-
p ut filte r c a p a c itor C2 s hould ha ve a low e ffe c tive
series resistance (ESR), and its capacitance should
remain fairly constant over temperature. Sprague 595D
surface-mount solid tantalum capacitors and Sanyo
OS-CON through-hole capacitors are recommended
due to their extremely low ESR. Capacitor ESR usually
rises at low temperatures, but OS-CON capacitors pro-
vide very low ESR below 0°C.
Transformers used with the MAX253 will ordinarily be
wound on high-permeability magnetic material. To min-
imize radiated noise, use common closed-magnetic-
path physical shapes (e.g., pot cores, toroids, E/I/U
cores). A typical core is the Philips 213CT050-3B7,
which is a toroid 0.190” in diameter and 0.05” thick.
For operation with this core at 5.5V maximum supply
voltage, the primary should have about 22 turns on
each side of the center tap, or 44 turns total. This will
result in a nominal primary inductance of about 832µH.
The secondary can be scaled to produce the required
DC output.
In applications where output ripple is not critical, a
0.1µF chip or ceramic capacitor is sufficient. Refer to
Table 4 for suggested capacitor suppliers. Use the
higher frequency setting to reduce ripple.
Input Bypass Capacitor
The input bypass capacitor C1 is not critical. Unlike
switching regulators, the MAX253’s supply current is
fairly constant, and is therefore less dependent on the
inp ut b yp a s s c a p a c itor. A low-c os t 0.1µF c hip or
c e ra mic c a p a c itor is norma lly s uffic ie nt for inp ut
