SIPEX SP237AET-L

The SP230A Series are multi–channel RS-232 line drivers/receivers that provide a variety of configurations to fit most communication needs, especially where ±12V is not available. Some models feature a shutdown mode to conserve power in battery-powered systems. Some require no external components. All, except one model, feature a built-in charge pump voltage converter, allowing them to operate from a single +5V power supply. All drivers and receivers meet all EIA RS-232D and CCITT V.28 requirements. The Series is available in plastic DIP and SOIC packages.

• The multi–channel RS-232 line drivers/receivers provides a variety of configurations to fit most communication needs, especially those applications where ±12V is not available.
• The SP230A, SP235A/B, SP236A/B, SP240A/B, and SP241A/B feature a shutdown mode which reduces device power dissipation to less than 5μW.
• All feature low power CMOS operation, which is particularly beneficial in battery-powered systems.
• The SP235A/B use no external components and are ideally suited where printed circuit board space is limited.
• All products in the Series include two charge pump voltage converters which allow them to operate from a single +5V supply.
• These converters convert the +5V input power to the ±10V needed to generate the RS-232 output levels.
• An internal charge pump converter produces the necessary -12V supply.
• All drivers and receivers meet all EIA RS-232D and CCITT V.28 specifications.
• The Series are available for use over the commercial, industrial temperature ranges.
• They are packaged in plastic DIP and SOIC packages.
