MaxLinear, Inc. Interface - Interface - Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers - SP3223EBEY-L SP3223EBEY-L

The SP3223EBEY-L is an RS-232 transceiver designed for portable applications, operating from a power supply range of +3.0V to +5.5V. It features a 2-driver/2-receiver configuration and complies with EIA/TIA-232-F standards. The device incorporates AUTO ON-LINE¬Æ circuitry, allowing it to automatically wake from a low-power shutdown state when an RS-232 cable is connected. It supports a minimum data rate of 250Kbps under load and can achieve up to 1Mbps for high-speed applications. The SP3223EBEY-L utilizes an internal charge pump that requires only 0.1¬µF capacitors, ensuring stable RS-232 outputs regardless of variations in supply voltage. It offers robust ESD protection with ratings of +15kV for the Human Body Model and +8kV for contact discharge. The device is packaged in a 20-pin TSSOP format and is available in lead-free options, making it suitable for environmentally conscious designs. The operating temperature range is specified from -40¬8C to +85¬8C, catering to a variety of application environments.
