Data Sheet
September 2001
File Number 6015.1
15kV ESD Protected, 10nA Supply-
Current, +3V to +5.5V, 250kbps, RS-232
Transmitters/Receivers
Features
• ESD Protection For RS-232 I/O Pins to 15kV (IEC1000)
• Drop In Replacement for SP3239E
The Intersil ISL83239E contains 3.0V to 5.5V powered
RS-232 transmitters/receivers which meet ElA/TIA-232 and
• Meets EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 Specifications at 3V
• RS-232 Compatible Outputs at 2.7V
• Latch-Up Free
V.28/V.24 specifications, even at V
= 3.0V. Additionally, it
CC
provides 15kV ESD protection (IEC 1000-4-2 Air Gap and
Human Body Model) on transmitter outputs and receiver
inputs (RS-232 pins). Targeted applications are cell phones,
PDAs, Palmtops, and data cables where the low operational,
and even lower standby, power consumption is critical.
Efficient on-chip charge pumps, coupled with the manual
powerdown function, reduce the standby supply current to a
10nA trickle. Small footprint packaging, and the use of small,
low value capacitors ensure board space savings as well.
Data rates greater than 250kbps are guaranteed at worst
case load conditions.
• On-Chip Voltage Converters Require Only Four External
Capacitors
• Manual Powerdown Feature
• Flow Through Pinout
• Rx and Tx Hysteresis For Improved Noise Immunity
• Guaranteed Minimum Data Rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . 250kbps
• Guaranteed Minimum Slew Rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6V/µs
• Wide Power Supply Range . . . . . . . Single +3V to +5.5V
• Low Supply Current in Powerdown State. . . . . . . . . .10nA
The ISL83239E is a 5 driver, 3 receiver device that also
includes a noninverting always-active receiver for “wake-up”
capability.
