Serial Interface For MTK Chipset

The document describes 5 different circuit designs for connecting DivX players to RS232 serial ports. The first two circuits use MAX3232 and MAX232 chips respectively and take power from either the player or PC. The next two "Tiny" circuits use two transistors each and take power from both the player and RS232 port. The final design uses a CMOS 4069 chip and gets power from the player. All circuits are intended for short cable connections under 1500mm.

Collection of serial interface circuits for DivX players mounting the Mediatek MT1389.

All these interfaces need a pin to pin cable for the connection with the RS232 serial port 1. Interface with MAX3232. This is the best circuit for the serial connection with the player. The MAX3232 need only 4 capacitors and the supply (3.3V) is taken from the player. Design by Cachirulo. This circuit is based on the MAX3232 datasheet.

2. Interface with MAX232. This circuit is using a MAX232 instead MAX3232. It is very similar to the previous, but the supply (5Vcc) is taken from the RS232 of the pc. This circuit is based on the MAX3232 datasheet.

3. Tiny interface with 2 transistors This is the simplest and cheaper interface. The supply is taken from the player for RX_player (3.3V) and from pin 4 of the RS232 for RX_RS232 (7-12V) The maximum length of the cable must not be exceed 1000-1500 mm.

4. Tiny_plus interface with 2 transistor This is an evolved version of TINY. The supply is taken from the player (3.3V) and from pin3 of the RS232 for a better negative level (-12V). Design by Ste.g. The maximum length of the cable must not be exceed 1000-1500 mm.

5. A.U.S.I. interface. with cmos 4069 This is another unusual serial interface (A.U.S.I). The supply (3.3V) is taken from the player The maximum length of the cable must not be exceed 1000-1500 mm.
