ST3232EBTR

UMW · RS232 ICs · TSSOP-16

ST3232EBTR from UMW, in a TSSOP-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 charge-pump flying capacitor C1. Connects to the external ceramic capacitor (typ. 0.1 µF at Vcc=3.3V; 0.047 µF at Vcc=5V) whose negative terminal ties to C1- (pin 3).
2 V+ power_out Positive charge-pump output (approximately +5.5V generated by the internal voltage-doubler). Requires an external reservoir capacitor (typ. 0.1 µF / 0.33 µF depending on Vcc) to GND. Absolute max +7V.
3 C1- passive Negative terminal of the voltage-doubler charge-pump flying capacitor C1 (paired with C1+ on pin 1).
4 C2+ passive Positive terminal of the inverting charge-pump flying capacitor C2. Connects to the negative terminal on C2- (pin 5).
5 C2- passive Negative terminal of the inverting charge-pump flying capacitor C2 (paired with C2+ on pin 4).
6 V- power_out Negative charge-pump output (approximately -5.5V generated by the internal inverter). Requires an external reservoir capacitor (typ. 0.1 µF / 0.33 µF depending on Vcc) to GND. Absolute max -7V.
7 DOUT2 output RS-232 driver #2 output. Drives the RS-232 line between roughly ±5V (VOH ≥ +5.0V, VOL ≤ -5.0V into 3 kΩ). Short-circuit current limited to ±35..±60 mA. Transition slew rate 6-30 V/µs.
8 RIN2 input RS-232 receiver #2 input. Accepts ±25V RS-232 line levels with 5 kΩ input impedance (3-7 kΩ). Hysteretic threshold: VIT+ ≈ 1.5V typ, VIT- ≈ 1.2V typ at Vcc=3.3V (0.3V typical hysteresis).
9 ROUT2 output TTL/CMOS receiver #2 output. Drives logic-level output rail-to-rail (VOH ≥ Vcc-0.6V at -1 mA; VOL ≤ 0.4V at 1.6 mA).
10 DIN2 input TTL/CMOS driver #2 logic input. VIH ≥ 2V (Vcc=3.3V) or ≥ 2.4V (Vcc=5.5V); VIL ≤ 0.8V. Accepts up to 5.0V logic input even with a 3.3V supply.
11 DIN1 input TTL/CMOS driver #1 logic input. VIH ≥ 2V (Vcc=3.3V) or ≥ 2.4V (Vcc=5.5V); VIL ≤ 0.8V. Accepts up to 5.0V logic input even with a 3.3V supply.
12 ROUT1 output TTL/CMOS receiver #1 output. Drives logic-level output rail-to-rail (VOH ≥ Vcc-0.6V at -1 mA; VOL ≤ 0.4V at 1.6 mA).
13 RIN1 input RS-232 receiver #1 input. Accepts ±25V RS-232 line levels with 5 kΩ input impedance (3-7 kΩ). Hysteretic threshold: VIT+ ≈ 1.5V typ, VIT- ≈ 1.2V typ at Vcc=3.3V.
14 DOUT1 output RS-232 driver #1 output. Drives the RS-232 line between roughly ±5V (VOH ≥ +5.0V, VOL ≤ -5.0V into 3 kΩ). Short-circuit current limited to ±35..±60 mA. Transition slew rate 6-30 V/µs.
15 GND power_in Device ground reference for both the logic side and the RS-232 charge-pump network.
16 VCC power_in Positive logic supply, +3.0V to +5.5V (absolute max +6.0V). Requires an external bypass capacitor to GND (typ. 0.1 µF). Typical no-load supply current ~1 mA (max 3 mA) at Vcc=3.3V.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
st3232ebtr.step 205 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
st3232ebtr-etched.step 2.7 MB You want the part with ST3232EBTR already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 664 faces against 255 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.

Provenance

Data extracted from the manufacturer datasheet, not a distributor listing:
