ISL3243EIRZ

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The ISL3243EIRZ is a full-duplex RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It integrates three drivers and five receivers within a single package, supporting data rates up to 250 kbps. The device operates on a single power supply ranging from 2.7 V to 3.6 V. It features ±15 kV ESD protection on all pins and includes automatic shutdown functionality for low-power applications. The component is housed in a 32-pin QFN package with an exposed pad, designed for surface-mount installation.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrates three independent drivers and five independent receivers for full RS-232 communication
• Provides robust ±15 kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection across all signal pins
• Incorporates automatic power-down mode to minimize current consumption during idle periods
• Supports common-mode voltage ranges of ±15 V for reliable operation in noisy environments

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring isolated serial communication
• Portable battery-powered equipment utilizing low-voltage logic interfaces
• Data acquisition modules interfacing with RS-232 peripherals
• Embedded systems needing compact footprint solutions for serial I/O

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EIRZ' corresponds to the 32-pin QFN package variant when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status as per the latest manufacturer documentation. Check for any recent Product Change Notifications regarding labeling or assembly updates. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability for the Renesas Electronics Corporation origin.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a full-duplex RS-232 interface is required with integrated ESD protection. It is suitable for designs constrained by a maximum supply voltage of 3.6 V. Consider the 32-pin QFN form factor for space-limited printed circuit board layouts. Verify that the 250 kbps data rate meets the system's throughput requirements.
