ICL3225EIAZ

RENESAS · RS232 ICs · SSOP-20-208mil

ICL3225EIAZ from RENESAS, in a SSOP-20-208mil. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 READY output Active high output that indicates when the device is ready to transmit (V- ≤ -4V).
2 C1+ passive External capacitor (voltage doubler) is connected to this lead.
3 V+ power_out Internally generated positive transmitter supply (+5.5V).
4 C1- passive External capacitor (voltage doubler) is connected to this lead.
5 C2+ passive External capacitor (voltage inverter) is connected to this lead.
6 C2- passive External capacitor (voltage inverter) is connected to this lead.
7 V- power_out Internally generated negative transmitter supply (-5.5V).
8 T2OUT output ±15kV ESD protected, RS-232 level (nominally ±5.5V) transmitter output.
9 R2IN input ±15kV ESD protected, RS-232 compatible receiver input.
10 R2OUT output TTL/CMOS level receiver output.
11 INVALID output Active low output that indicates if no valid RS-232 levels are present on any receiver input.
12 T2IN input TTL/CMOS compatible transmitter input.
13 T1IN input TTL/CMOS compatible transmitter input.
14 FORCEON input Active high input to override automatic powerdown circuitry, keeping transmitters active (FORCEOFF must be high).
15 R1OUT output TTL/CMOS level receiver output.
16 R1IN input ±15kV ESD protected, RS-232 compatible receiver input.
17 T1OUT output ±15kV ESD protected, RS-232 level (nominally ±5.5V) transmitter output.
18 GND power_in Ground connection.
19 VCC power_in System power supply input (3.0V to 5.5V).
20 FORCEOFF input Active low to shut down transmitters and on-chip power supply, overriding automatic circuitry and FORCEON.
