ICL3232CBNZ

ICL3232CBNZ is an one microamp supply-current transmitter/receiver. It meets ElA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 specifications, even at VCC = 3.0V. Targeted applications are PDAs, notebook, and laptop computers where the low operational power consumption and even lower standby power consumption are critical. Small footprint packaging, and the use of small, low value capacitors ensure board space savings as well. It is fully compatible with 3.3V only systems, mixed 3.3V and 5.0V systems, and 5.0V only systems. It is 3-driver, 5-receiver device that provides a complete serial port suitable for laptop or notebook computers. This device also includes noninverting always-active receivers for “wake-up” capability. Application includes any system requiring RS-232 communication ports, battery powered, hand-held, and portable equipment, laptop computers, notebooks, modems, printers, and other peripherals, digital cameras, cellular/mobile phones.
