TPT3243-TS6R

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The TPT3243-TS6R is a multi-channel RS-232 transceiver manufactured by 3PEAK, designed for balanced communication systems. It integrates three drivers and five receivers, supporting data rates up to 1 Mbps while operating from a single 3.0 V to 5.5 V power supply. The device features an internal charge pump requiring only four external 0.1 μF capacitors. It provides robust electrostatic discharge protection with ±20 kV contact and ±25 kV air-gap ratings per IEC61000-4-2 standards. The component includes an auto-power-down function that reduces supply current to 1 μA typical when no valid signal is detected. It is housed in a TSSOP28 package and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrates three drivers and five receivers for multi-channel serial communication
• Features an always-active complementary receiver output (ROUT2B) for ring indicator functionality during power-down
• Includes an auto-power-down mode that disables driver outputs upon detection of invalid RS-232 signals
• Provides high-level ESD protection on bus pins compliant with IEC61000-4-2 standards

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix TS6R corresponds to the TSSOP28 package variant. Confirm the tape and reel quantity matches the standard 4000-unit packaging defined in the manufacturer's order information. Ensure the selected components meet the required moisture sensitivity level MSL3 classification for surface-mount assembly processes.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring multiple RS-232 channels within a compact footprint. The TSSOP28 package offers a balance between thermal performance and board space efficiency compared to larger SOP variants. Consider the low standby current capability if the application demands extended battery life or strict power management protocols during idle states.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the TPT3243 family of RS-232 transceivers produced by 3PEAK. The family shares identical electrical specifications and functional blocks but differs in physical packaging options. Other available packages include SOP28, SSOP28, and QFN5x5-32, allowing designers to choose based on thermal requirements and PCB layout constraints without altering circuit design parameters.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same family include TPT3243-SO5R and TPT3243-SS6R. These alternatives offer different package footprints while maintaining identical electrical characteristics. Verify mechanical compatibility before substitution.
