RS-232 LINE DRIVER/RECEIVER AT 3.3 V/5 V
The
µ
PD4721 is a high-breakdown voltage silicon gate CMOS line driver/receiver based on the EIA/TIA-232-
E standard. The internal DC/DC converter can switch between multiple voltages, realizing the allowing it to
operate with a single +3.3 V or +5 V power supply. It also provides standby function.
This IC incorporates 2 driver circuits and 2 receiver circuits. An RS-232 interface circuit can be easily
configured by connecting 5 capacitors externally.
FEATURES
• Conforms to EIA/TIA-232-E (former name, RS-232C) standards
• Selectable +3.3 V/+5 V single power supply (selected by V
CHA
pin)
• By setting the standby pin to a low level (standby mode), circuit current can be reduced. At such times,
the driver output is in a high-impedance state.

Note 7.
In low temperature (below 0 ˚C), the capacitance of electrolytic capacitor becomes lower. Therefore,
set higher values when using in low temperature.
Concerning the wiring length between the capacitor and the IC, the shorter the better.
Capacitors with good frequency characteristics such as tantalum capacitors, laminated ceramic
capacitors, and aluminum electrolytic capacitors for switching power supply are recommended for the
external capacitors.
