U7 – MAX3232ECDR: RS-232 interface connected to DB9 connector J10 U10 – MAX3232ECDR: RS-232 interface connected to 3.5 mm stereo/TRS jack J11 Supply voltage: 3.3 V 1. Charge-pump connections For both MAX3232 devices, I am using 100 nF / 50 V ceramic capacitors for the charge pump: C1+ to C1− C2+ to C2− V+ to +3.3 V V− to GND Could you please confirm whether these connections are correct for VCC = 3.3 V , particularly the V+ capacitor connected to +3.3 V and the V− capacitor connected to GND ? Also, is 100 nF / 50 V suitable for these charge-pump capacitors? 2. DB9 interface – U7 The RS-232 signals are connected as: DOUT1 → DB9 pin 2 RIN1 ← DB9 pin 3 DB9 pin 5 → GND The other DB9 pins are unused. Could you please confirm whether this DB9 pin assignment is correct for a standard RS-232 interface ? 3. 3.5 mm stereo jack interface – U10 The second MAX3232 is connected to a 3.5 mm stereo/TRS jack Tip → DOUT2 Ring → RIN2 Sleeve → GND The intention is to use the stereo jack for RS-232 TX, RX, and GND . Could you please confirm whether this Tip/Ring/Sleeve assignment is suitable for RS-232 , and whether there are any concerns with using a 3.5 mm stereo jack for this interface? 4. Unused pins The unused MAX3232 pins are left unconnected as shown in the schematic. Should the unused logic inputs/outputs be left floating, or should any unused input be tied to GND or VCC? 5. General review I would also appreciate feedback on: ESD/TVS protection for the external connectors Decoupling capacitor placement Charge-pump capacitor placement Ground/layout considerations Any other schematic issues that should be addressed before PCB fabrication The schematic for both MAX3232ECDR interfaces is attached. Thank you in advance for your review and suggestions.</description><category domain="https://e2e.ti.com/support/interface-group/interface/tags/Wired%2bnetworking">Wired networking</category><category domain="https://e2e.ti.com/support/interface-group/interface/tags/MAX3232">MAX3232</category><category domain="https://e2e.ti.com/support/interface-group/interface/tags/MAX3232E">MAX3232E</category></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: DS90UB960-Q1: DS90UB960-Q1 Replicate mode for TX port 0 and port 1 is not working</title><link>https://e2e.ti.com/support/interface-group/interface/f/interface-forum/1680319/ds90ub960-q1-ds90ub960-q1-replicate-mode-for-tx-port-0-and-port-1-is-not-working/6500958</link><pubDate>Sat, 03 Oct 2026 01:07:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">cb01d8b2-d089-468d-babb-77d1d8683490:4e229235-5b6d-4816-adb6-3e9d2bbd8ca4</guid><dc:creator>Hamzeh Jaradat</dc:creator><description>Hi Sachin, [quote userid=&amp;quot;684591&amp;quot; url=&amp;quot;~/support/interface-group/interface/f/interface-forum/1680319/ds90ub960-q1-ds90ub960-q1-replicate-mode-for-tx-port-0-and-port-1-is-not-working/6500342&amp;quot;]1.

This indicates the default state that the pin is biased to on power-up or reset. Whether or not you need to pull up or pull down these pins is dependent on any strapping configuration you are doing.
