WS3221ECA

GEC · RS232 ICs · SSOP-16

WS3221ECA from GEC, in a SSOP-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 XEN input Receiver enable, active low; a high level forces the receiver outputs into high impedance.
2 C1+ passive Positive terminal of the boost charge-pump capacitor, with C1P to C1N recommended at 0.1uF.
3 V+ power_out Positive supply generated by the charge pump, stated as +5.4V.
4 C1- passive Negative terminal of the boost charge-pump capacitor, with C1P to C1N recommended at 0.1uF.
5 C2+ passive Positive terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor, with C2P to C2N recommended at 0.1uF.
6 C2- passive Negative terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor, with C2P to C2N recommended at 0.1uF.
7 V- power_out Negative supply generated by the charge pump, stated as -5.4V.
8 R1IN input First RS-232 receiver input, rated at ±20V in the absolute maximum table.
9 R1OUT output First TTL/CMOS receiver output, referenced to VCC and rated from -0.3V to VCC+0.3V.
10 XIDLE output TTL/CMOS output that indicates the XPWRSAVE or shutdown state.
11 T1IN input First TTL/CMOS driver input, rated from -0.3V to +7V.
12 XPWRSAVE input A high level forces the driver to operate, and SHUTDOWN must be high for this function to apply.
13 T1OUT output First RS-232 driver output, rated at ±15V in the absolute maximum table.
14 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
15 VCC power_in Supply voltage of +3V to +3.6V, with 3.3V typical.
16 XSD input Shutdown control, active low; a low level shuts down the driver and voltage converter.
