DESCRIPTION
The SP3222EB/SP3232EB series is an RS-232 transceiver solution intended for portable or
hand-held applications such as notebook or laptop computers. The SP3222EB/SP3232EB
series has a high-efficiency, charge-pump power supply that requires only 0.1µF capacitors
in 3.3V operation. This charge pump allows the SP3222EB/SP3232EB series to deliver true
RS-232 performance from a single power supply ranging from +3.0V to +5.5V. The SP3222EB/
SP3232EB are 2-driver/2-receiver devices. The ESD tolerance of the SP3222EB/SP3232EB
devices is over +/-15kV for both Human Body Model and IEC61000-4-2 Air discharge test
methods. The SP3222EB 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.
