UM232EESE

Union Semiconductor · RS232 ICs · SOP-16

UM232EESE from Union Semiconductor, in a SOP-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 of the voltage-doubler (positive charge pump) flying capacitor. Connect a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between C1+ (pin 1) and C1- (pin 3).
2 V+ power_out +2·VCC (approximately +10V) output generated by the internal charge-pump voltage doubler. Bypass to GND with a 0.1μF capacitor; may supply a small load current at the expense of driver swing.
3 C1- passive Negative terminal of the voltage-doubler (positive charge pump) flying capacitor. Paired with C1+ (pin 1) via a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor.
4 C2+ passive Positive terminal of the voltage-inverter (negative charge pump) flying capacitor. Connect a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor between C2+ (pin 4) and C2- (pin 5).
5 C2- passive Negative terminal of the voltage-inverter (negative charge pump) flying capacitor. Paired with C2+ (pin 4) via a 0.1μF ceramic capacitor.
6 V- power_out -2·VCC (approximately -10V) output generated by the internal charge-pump voltage inverter. Bypass to GND with a 0.1μF capacitor.
7 T2OUT output RS-232 line driver #2 output. Inverting driver output swinging typically ±9V (guaranteed ±5V into 3kΩ / 2500pF). Slew rate internally limited to <30V/μs; short-circuit and ±15kV ESD protected.
8 R2IN input RS-232 line receiver #2 input. Accepts ±30V input, typical thresholds VIL=1.2V / VIH=1.7V with ~0.5V hysteresis, ~5kΩ internal pull-down to GND. ±15kV ESD protected.
9 R2OUT output RS-232 line receiver #2 output (TTL/CMOS logic level). Inverted with respect to R2IN; VOL≤0.4V @ 3.2mA sink, VOH≥3.5V @ 1mA source.
10 T2IN input RS-232 line driver #2 input (TTL/CMOS logic level). VIL≤0.8V, VIH≥2.0V; internally pulled to VCC through ~400kΩ so an unconnected input defaults high.
11 T1IN input RS-232 line driver #1 input (TTL/CMOS logic level). VIL≤0.8V, VIH≥2.0V; internally pulled to VCC through ~400kΩ so an unconnected input defaults high.
12 R1OUT output RS-232 line receiver #1 output (TTL/CMOS logic level). Inverted with respect to R1IN; VOL≤0.4V @ 3.2mA sink, VOH≥3.5V @ 1mA source.
13 R1IN input RS-232 line receiver #1 input. Accepts ±30V input, typical thresholds VIL=1.2V / VIH=1.7V with ~0.5V hysteresis, ~5kΩ internal pull-down to GND. ±15kV ESD protected.
14 T1OUT output RS-232 line driver #1 output. Inverting driver output swinging typically ±9V (guaranteed ±5V into 3kΩ / 2500pF). Slew rate internally limited to <30V/μs; short-circuit and ±15kV ESD protected.
15 GND power_in Ground / 0V reference for logic and RS-232 signaling.
16 VCC power_in Positive supply input, +4.5V to +5.5V (nominal +5V). Typical ICC = 10mA (15mA max) no-load. Bypass to GND with at least 0.1μF ceramic.
