The SP3222EEA-L is a true RS-232 Transceiver has a high-efficiency, charge-pump power supply that requires only 0.1μF capacitors in 3.3V operation. This charge pump allows the SP3222E series to deliver true RS-232 performance from a single power supply ranging from 3 to 5.5V. The SP3222E is 2-driver/2-receiver device. The ESD tolerance of the SP3222E device is over ±15kV for both human body model and IEC61000-4-2 air discharge test methods. The SP3222E device has a low-power shutdown mode where the devices driver outputs and charge pumps are disabled. During shutdown, the supply current falls to less than 1μA.
Minimum 120kbps data rate under full load
Interoperable with RS-232 down to a 2.7V power source
