Receivers operate from 3V logic supply V L, while the onboard charge pump and drivers operate from 5V or 3V supply V CC. The transceiver has two shutdown modes. One mode disables the drivers and the charge pump, the other shuts down all circuitry except for one low power receiver which can be used for ring detection. The VCC supply may be shut down while in ring detection mode. While shut down, the drivers and receivers assume high impedance output states.
