Overview: Datasheet ISL83387E
±15kV ESD Protected, +3V to +5.5V, 1Microamp, 250kbps, RS-232 Transceivers with Enhanced Automatic Powerdown The ISL83387E is a 3.0V to 5.5V powered RS-232 transceiver that meets ElA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 specifications, even at VCC = 3.0V. Additionally, it provides ±15kV ESD protection (IEC61000-4-2 Air Gap and Human Body Model) on transmitter outputs and receiver inputs (RS-232 pins). Targeted applications are industrial laptop computers, Palmtops, PDAs, and notebooks where the low operational power consumption and even lower standby power consumption is critical. Efficient on-chip charge pumps coupled with manual and enhanced automatic powerdown functions reduce the standby supply current to a 1µA trickle. The TSSOP 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.
