SP202EEP-L [MAXLINEAR]

The devices are pin-to-pin compatible with Exar's SP232A, SP233A, SP310A and SP312A devices as well as popular industry standard pinouts. The ESD tolerance has been improved on these devices to over +/-5kV for Human Body Model. This series offer a 20kbps data rate under load, small ceramic type 0.1μF charge pump capacitors and overall ruggedness for commercial applications. Features include Exar's BiCMOS design which allowing low power operation without sacrificing performance. The series is available in lead free packages with commercial and industrial temperature ranges. The devices have internal charge pump voltage converters which allow them to operate from a single +5V supply. The charge pumps will operate with polarized or non-polarized capacitors ranging from 0.1 to 10μF and will generate the +/-6V needed to generate the RS-232 output levels. The SP233E design offers internal charge pump capacitors. The SP310E provides an ON/OFF input that simultaneously disables the internal charge pump circuit and puts all transmitter and receiver outputs into a high impedance state. The SP312E is identical to the SP310E but with separate tri-state and shutdown inputs and uses a unique approach compared to older less efficient designs.
