GENERAL DESCRIPTION
(ADM242)
EN
ADM2xx
The ADM222, ADM232A, ADM242 are a family of high speed
RS-232 line drivers/receivers offering transmission rates up to
200 kB/s. Operating from a single +5 V power supply, a highly
efficient on-chip charge pump using small (0.1 µF) external
capacitors allows RS-232 bipolar levels to be developed. Two
RS-232 drivers and two RS-232 receivers are provided on each
device.

ORDERING GUIDE
The devices are fabricated on BiCMOS, an advanced mixed
technology process which combines low power CMOS with high
speed bipolar circuitry. This allows for transmission rates up to
200 kB/s yet minimizes the quiescent power supply current to
under 5 mA.

The ADM232A is a pin-compatible, high speed upgrade for the
AD232 and for the ADM232L. It is available in 16-pin DIP and
in both narrow and wide surface mount (SOIC) packages.
The ADM222 contains an additional shutdown (SHDN) func-
tion which may be used to disable the device thereby reducing
the supply current to 0.1 µA. During shutdown, all transmit/
receive functions are disabled. The ADM222 is available in
18-pin DIP and in a wide surface mount (SOIC) package.
R-18W
The ADM242 combines both shutdown (SHDN) and enable
(EN) functions. The shutdown function reduces the supply
curent to 0.1 mA. During shutdown, the transmitters are
disabled but the receivers continue to operate normally. The
enable function allows the receiver outputs to be disabled
thereby facilitating sharing a common bus. The ADM242 is
available in 18-pin DIP and in a wide surface mount (SOIC)
package.
