SP3223EEY-L

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SP3223EEY-L is a MaxLinear RS-232 interface integrated circuit featuring two drivers and two receivers in a TSSOP-20 package. It operates on a single power supply ranging from 3 V to 5.5 V, supporting full-duplex communication with a data rate of 235 kb/s. The device draws 300 uA during operation and provides 15 kV ESD protection. It functions within an industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, includes shutdown capability, and delivers 35 mA output current with 900 mW power dissipation.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Compliant with EIA/TIA-232-F standards for reliable serial communication
• Integrated charge pump ensures stable RS-232 voltage levels across varying supply conditions
• Shutdown mode significantly reduces power consumption for battery-operated systems

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust serial connectivity
• Portable computing devices such as laptops and handheld terminals
• Embedded equipment operating in extended temperature environments

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L' against the manufacturer's latest documentation to confirm lead-free compliance and RoHS status. Ensure the TSSOP-20 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Confirm that the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature rating aligns with your operational environment specifications before finalizing procurement.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-driver RS-232 transceiver is required for space-constrained designs using surface-mount technology. It is suitable for applications needing moderate data rates up to 235 kb/s with low standby current. Consider the TSSOP-20 package availability and thermal performance relative to your board layout constraints.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SP3223E series of intelligent RS-232 transceivers designed for portable electronics. It shares functional similarities with other members of the family but differs in package type and specific electrical characteristics. The EE variant typically denotes enhanced features or specific packaging options compared to standard versions.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include SP3223EEA-L (SSOP-20) and SP3223EUEA-L (SSOP-20). Verify pin compatibility and package dimensions before substitution. Other series members like SP3232E may offer similar functionality but require evaluation of driver/receiver counts and data rate differences.
