Description:

• The SP232ACP is intended to convert the logic levels of a microcontroller or microprocessor to the voltage levels required by the RS-232 standard while also supplying adequate driving current to the load.
• It features an integrated charge pump, which eliminates the need for two power supplies.
• The device's low power consumption and built-in ESD protection make it reliable for many serial communication applications.
• Two Transmitters and Two Receivers: Contains two independent line drivers (transmitters) and two-line receivers, allowing for full-duplex communication.
• RS-232 Compatibility: Conforms to all RS-232 and ITU V.28 standards, making it ideal for a wide range of serial communication applications.
• Single Supply Voltage: Works with a single +5V power supply.
• High Data Rate: Supports data rates of up to 120kbps while under load.
• Low Power Consumption: Designed to consume little power while maintaining high performance.
• Small Ceramic Capacitors: Uses 0.1µF external charge pump capacitors to reduce overall component count.
• ESD Protection: Includes ±2kV Human Body Model ESD protection.
• Pin-to-Pin Compatibility: Uses industry-standard pinouts for easy integration into existing designs.
