DESCRIPTION The ST3232 is a 3V powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communication interface with low power requirements, high data-rate capabilities. ST3232 has a proprietary low dropout transmitter output stage providing true RS-232 performance from 3 to 5.5V supplies. The device requires only four small 0.1µF standard external capacitors for operations from 3V supply. The ST3232 has two receivers and two drivers. The device is guaranteed to run at data rates of 250Kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels.
