3 Description
The TRS3122E is a two-driver and two-receiver RS-
232 interface device, with split supply pins for mixed-
voltage operation. All RS-232 inputs and outputs are
protected to ±15 kV using the IEC 61000-4-2 Air-Gap
Discharge method, ±8 kV using the IEC 61000-4-2
Contact Discharge method, and ±15 kV using the
Human-Body Model.
The charge pump requires five small 0.1-μF
capacitors for operation from as low as a 1.8-V
supply. The TRS3122E is capable of running at data
rates up to 1000 kbps, while maintaining RS-232-
compatible output levels.
The TRS3122E has a unique VL pin that allows
operation in mixed-logic voltage systems. Both driver
in (DIN) and receiver out (ROUT) logic levels are pin
programmable through the VL pin. This eliminates the
need for additional voltage level shifter while
interfacing with low-voltage microcontrollers or
UARTs.
Auto Powerdown Plus automatically places the
device in a low power mode when the device has not
received or transmitted data for more than 30
seconds. This feature makes this device a very
attractive option for battery powered or other power-
sensitive applications.
