ADM206EARZ-REEL

Overview

The ADM206EARZ-REEL is an RS-232 transceiver from the ADM2xxE family, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. It operates on a single 5 V supply and features four drivers and three receivers with full-duplex communication capability. The device supports data rates up to 230 kbps and includes integrated shutdown functionality for low power consumption. It provides ±15 kV ESD protection compliant with IEC 1000-4-2 standards and meets EMC directives. The component is housed in a 24-lead SOIC_W package and functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Complies with EU EMC directive (89/336/EEC) with low EMI emissions
• Provides robust ESD protection up to ±15 kV on all I/O lines
• Features a shutdown mode that reduces power consumption to 1 μW
• Includes internal pull-up and pull-down resistors on logic inputs

Applications

• Laptop computers
• Notebook computers
• Printers and peripherals
• Modems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix REEL against the manufacturer's current documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging availability. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead-free specifications directly with Analog Devices or authorized distributors prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring high ESD immunity and EMC compliance for RS-232 interfaces. Ensure the design accommodates the required four external 0.1 μF capacitors for the charge pump. Verify that the 24-lead SOIC_W package dimensions fit the target PCB layout constraints.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ADM2xxE series of ruggedized RS-232 line drivers and receivers. The series is designed as a plug-in upgrade for older MAX2xxE devices, offering enhanced ESD protection and lower power consumption while maintaining backward compatibility with previous generations of interface ICs.

Replacement Considerations

The ADM206AR-REEL serves as a non-RoHS equivalent variant of this component. Designers should verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter alignment before substituting between these variants.
