ST232ABDR

STMicroelectronics · RS232 ICs · SOIC-16

ST232ABDR from STMicroelectronics, in a SOIC-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 C1+ passive Positive terminal for the first charge pump capacitor; use 0.1 µF capacitor to GND.
2 V+ power_out Doubled positive voltage terminal generated by internal charge pump for RS-232 transmitter drivers.
3 C1- passive Negative terminal for the first charge pump capacitor; connect to GND.
4 C2+ passive Positive terminal for the second charge pump capacitor; use 0.1 µF capacitor to GND.
5 C2- passive Negative terminal for the second charge pump capacitor; connect to GND.
6 V- power_out Inverted negative voltage terminal generated by internal charge pump for RS-232 transmitter drivers.
7 T2OUT output Second RS-232 transmitter output voltage with ±9 V typical swing into 3 kΩ load.
8 R2IN input Second RS-232 receiver input voltage accepting ±30 V input range with 0.8-1.3 V low and 1.8-2.4 V high thresholds.
9 R2OUT output Second receiver TTL/CMOS output voltage with typical output low of 0.2-0.4 V and high of 3.5 V to VCC-0.2 V.
10 T2IN input Second transmitter TTL/CMOS input voltage with logic thresholds 0.8-1.4 V (low) and 1.4-2 V (high).
