BL13232ESO

BL Shanghai Belling · RS232 ICs · SOP-16

BL13232ESO from BL Shanghai Belling, 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 lead of charge-pump flying capacitor C1. Connect a 0.1 µF (Vcc=3.3V) or 0.047 µF (Vcc=5V) ceramic capacitor between C1+ and C1-.
2 V+ power_out Positive charge-pump output for storage capacitor only (typ +2×VCC). Connect a 0.1 µF (Vcc=3.3V) or 0.33 µF (Vcc=5V) reservoir capacitor from V+ to GND.
3 C1- passive Negative lead of charge-pump flying capacitor C1.
4 C2+ passive Positive lead of charge-pump flying capacitor C2. Connect a 0.1 µF (Vcc=3.3V) or 0.33 µF (Vcc=5V) ceramic capacitor between C2+ and C2-.
5 C2- passive Negative lead of charge-pump flying capacitor C2.
6 V- power_out Negative charge-pump output for storage capacitor only (typ -2×VCC). Connect a 0.1 µF (Vcc=3.3V) or 0.33 µF (Vcc=5V) reservoir capacitor from V- to GND.
7 DOUT2 output RS-232 line-driver output for channel 2. Swings approximately ±5.4V into a 3 kΩ load; short-circuit current typ ±30 mA.
8 RIN2 input RS-232 line-receiver input for channel 2. Input voltage range ±25V; input resistance 3-7 kΩ. Positive threshold typ 1.5-2.0V, hysteresis typ 0.4V.
9 ROUT2 output TTL/CMOS receiver output for channel 2. VOH ≥ VCC-0.6V at -1 mA; VOL ≤ 0.4V at 1.6 mA.
10 DIN2 input TTL/CMOS driver input for channel 2. Accepts 5V logic input even with 3.3V supply. VIH ≥ 2V (VCC=3.3V) / 2.4V (VCC=5V); VIL ≤ 0.8V.
11 DIN1 input TTL/CMOS driver input for channel 1. Accepts 5V logic input even with 3.3V supply. VIH ≥ 2V (VCC=3.3V) / 2.4V (VCC=5V); VIL ≤ 0.8V.
12 ROUT1 output TTL/CMOS receiver output for channel 1. VOH ≥ VCC-0.6V at -1 mA; VOL ≤ 0.4V at 1.6 mA.
13 RIN1 input RS-232 line-receiver input for channel 1. Input voltage range ±25V; input resistance 3-7 kΩ. Positive threshold typ 1.5-2.0V, hysteresis typ 0.4V.
14 DOUT1 output RS-232 line-driver output for channel 1. Swings approximately ±5.4V into a 3 kΩ load; short-circuit current typ ±30 mA.
15 GND power_in Ground reference (0V).
16 VCC power_in Supply voltage. Single supply 3V to 5.5V (3.3V ±0.3V or 5V ±0.5V typical). Bypass with a 0.1 µF capacitor to GND. ICC typ 1.5 mA (no load).

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: BL13232ESO

  • 3D model: SOP-16 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
bl13232eso.step 217 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
bl13232eso-etched.step 2.7 MB You want the part with BL13232ESO 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 267 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:
