ICL3224E, ICL3226E, ICL3244E
±15kV ESD Protected, +3V to +5.5V, 1µA, 250kbps, RS-232 Transceivers with
Enhanced Automatic Powerdown
The
ICL3224E, ICL3226E,
and
ICL3244E
devices are
3.0V to 5.5V powered RS-232 transmitters/receivers
that meet ElA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 specifications,
even at V
CC
= 3.0V. They provide
±
15kV ESD
protection (IEC61000-4-2 Air Gap and Human Body
Model) on transmitter outputs and receiver inputs
(RS-232 pins). Targeted applications are PDAs,
Palmtops, and notebook and laptop computers where
the low operational power and even lower standby
power consumption are critical. Efficient on-chip
charge pumps coupled with manual and enhanced
automatic powerdown functions, reduce the standby
supply current to a 1µA trickle. Small footprint
packaging and the use of small, low value capacitors
ensure board space savings. Data rates greater than
250kbps are ensured at worst case load conditions.
This family is fully compatible with 3.3V only systems,
mixed 3.3V and 5.0V systems, and 5.0V only
systems.
The ICL3244E is a 3-driver, 5-receiver device that
provides a complete serial port suitable for laptop or
notebook computers. It also includes a noninverting
always-active receiver for “wake-up” capability.
The ICL3224E, ICL3226E, and ICL3244E feature an
enhanced automatic powerdown function that powers
down the on-chip power supply and driver circuits.
Powerdown occurs when all receiver and transmitter
inputs detect no signal transitions for a period of 30s.
These devices power back up automatically
whenever they sense a transition on any transmitter
or receiver input.
Table 1
summarizes the features of the device
represented by this datasheet and
