UM3221E/UM3222E/UM3232E
Fail-Safe, Single Supply RS-232 Transceivers
UM3221E/UM3222E/UM3232E
General Description
The UM3221E/UM3222E/UM3232E series are 3.3V powered RS-232 transceivers intended for portable or hand-held applications. The UM3221E has one driver/one receiver while the UM3222E/UM3232E has two drivers/two receivers. The device features low power consumption, high data-rate capability and enhanced ESD protection. The ESD rating of all transmitter outputs and receiver inputs is ±15kV for both human body mode and IEC61000-4-2 air discharge methods, and over ±8kV for IEC61000-4-2 contact discharge methods. The logic I/O pins are protected to ±2kV for human body mode. Small footprint, low profile package and the use of small 0.1μF capacitors ensure board space savings as well.
