SP232ECN-L from MaxLinear, in a SOIC-16. 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 | C1+ | passive | Positive terminal of charge pump capacitor C1, a 0.1µF to 10µF capacitor. |
| 2 | V+ | power_out | Positive charge pump output (about +6V for driver swing), decoupled with a storage capacitor; absolute maximum 11.0V. |
| 3 | C1- | passive | Negative terminal of charge pump capacitor C1. |
| 4 | C2+ | passive | Positive terminal of charge pump capacitor C2. |
| 5 | C2- | passive | Negative terminal of charge pump capacitor C2. |
| 6 | V- | power_out | Negative charge pump output (about -6V for driver swing), decoupled with a storage capacitor; absolute maximum -11.0V. |
| 7 | T2OUT | output | RS-232 transmitter 2 output with typical ±6V swing, ±5.0V minimum into 3kΩ, short-circuit protected, ±15kV HBM ESD. |
| 8 | R2IN | input | RS-232 receiver 2 input with voltage range ±15V, internal 5kΩ pull-down, ±15kV HBM ESD. |
| 9 | R2OUT | output | TTL/CMOS receiver 2 output, inverted relative to R2IN, low 0.4V max at 3.2mA. |
| 10 | T2IN | input | TTL/CMOS transmitter 2 input with logic thresholds 0.8V low and 2.0V high and internal pull-up. |
| 11 | T1IN | input | TTL/CMOS transmitter 1 input with logic thresholds 0.8V low and 2.0V high and internal pull-up. |
| 12 | R1OUT | output | TTL/CMOS receiver 1 output, inverted relative to R1IN, low 0.4V max at 3.2mA. |
| 13 | R1IN | input | RS-232 receiver 1 input with voltage range ±15V, internal 5kΩ pull-down, ±15kV HBM ESD. |
| 14 | T1OUT | output | RS-232 transmitter 1 output with typical ±6V swing, ±5.0V minimum into 3kΩ, short-circuit protected, ±15kV HBM ESD. |
| 15 | GND | power_in | Ground. |
| 16 | VCC | power_in | Single +5V ±10% supply input; absolute maximum 6.0V. |
