Overview

Description

ICL3232CBNZ is a dual RS-232 transceiver from Intersil/Renesas. It provides two drivers and two receivers, enabling bidirectional serial interface between TTL/CMOS logic (microcontrollers) and RS-232 ports.
Key points:
- Converts TTL/CMOS levels to RS-232 voltage levels and back.
- Single-supply operation (roughly 3.0–5.5 V) with an internal charge-pump to generate RS-232 voltages; requires external capacitors.
- Suitable for microcontroller to PC/modem serial connections; supports typical RS-232 data rates and signaling.
- Suffix “CBNZ” denotes packaging/grade; check the datasheet for exact package type, voltage/temperature specs, and capacitor recommendations.
If you’re designing a board, review the datasheet for pinout, capacitor values, drive strength, input thresholds, and any ESD/EMI considerations.

Features

Key features of ICL3232CBNZ (RS-232 transceiver):
- Dual RS-232 transceiver: 2 drivers and 2 receivers
- On-chip charge pump to generate RS-232 levels from a single supply
- External capacitors required (typical: four 0.1 μF caps per datasheet)
- Data rate up to ~250 kbps (typical)
- Outputs swing to RS-232 levels (roughly ±6V to ±7V)
- TTL/CMOS input thresholds; accepts standard TTL/CMOS on transmit side and RS-232 signals on receive side
- Low quiescent current for low-power operation
- Available in CBNZ package variant (16-pin)
Note: Always verify exact voltage/supply range and capacitor values against the specific datasheet for ICL3232CBNZ.

Package

16‑pin package: DIP‑16.

Pinout

- Pin count: 16-pin package (DIP-16 / SO-16)
- Function: Dual RS-232 transceiver (two drivers and two receivers) with an internal charge-pump to generate RS-232 voltage levels. Interfaces TTL/CMOS logic on TIN/RIN pins to RS-232 on TOUT/ROUT pins.

Manufacturer

Application

ICL3232CBNZ is a dual RS-232 line driver/receiver. Applications: any UART-based serial interface in embedded systems—MCU to PC/modem/printer/POS terminals; industrial controllers and instrumentation; data loggers and telemetry; telecom and network peripherals. Designed for 5V operation with low power; requires external charge-pump capacitors for RS-232 levels.
