ST3232BDR from UMW, 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 charge-pump capacitor C1. Connect a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between C1+ and C1- (pin 3). Part of the internal charge pump generating V+ ≈ +5.5V. |
| 2 | V+ | power_out | Regulated +5.5V rail generated internally by the charge pump. Bypass to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Do not load externally beyond the internal driver requirements. |
| 3 | C1- | passive | Negative terminal of the voltage-doubler charge-pump capacitor C1. Connect to C1+ (pin 1) through a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. |
| 4 | C2+ | passive | Positive terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor C2. Connect a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor between C2+ and C2- (pin 5). Part of the internal charge pump generating V- ≈ -5.5V. |
| 5 | C2- | passive | Negative terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor C2. Connect to C2+ (pin 4) through a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. |
| 6 | V- | power_out | Regulated -5.5V rail generated internally by the inverting charge pump. Bypass to GND with a 0.1µF capacitor. Do not load externally beyond the internal driver requirements. |
| 7 | DOUT2 | output | RS-232 driver output for channel 2. Swings between V+ and V- levels (typically ±5.4V). Meets TIA/EIA-232-F output specifications; short-circuit current typically ±35 mA. |
| 8 | RIN2 | input | RS-232 receiver input for channel 2. Accepts ±25V input swing with typical 5kΩ input resistance. Positive-going threshold typ 1.5V, negative-going typ 1.2V (VCC=3.3V); ~0.3V hysteresis. |
| 9 | ROUT2 | output | TTL/CMOS receiver output for channel 2. Drives to VCC-0.1V high / 0.4V low with 1.6 mA sink current. Level-translated version of RIN2 for the host UART. |
| 10 | DIN2 | input | TTL/CMOS driver input for channel 2. VIH ≥ 2.0V (VCC=3.3V) / 2.4V (VCC=5.5V); VIL ≤ 0.8V. Accepts up to 5.5V input even with 3.3V VCC. |
| 11 | DIN1 | input | TTL/CMOS driver input for channel 1. VIH ≥ 2.0V (VCC=3.3V) / 2.4V (VCC=5.5V); VIL ≤ 0.8V. Accepts up to 5.5V input even with 3.3V VCC. |
| 12 | ROUT1 | output | TTL/CMOS receiver output for channel 1. Drives to VCC-0.1V high / 0.4V low with 1.6 mA sink current. Level-translated version of RIN1 for the host UART. |
| 13 | RIN1 | input | RS-232 receiver input for channel 1. Accepts ±25V input swing with typical 5kΩ input resistance. Positive-going threshold typ 1.5V, negative-going typ 1.2V (VCC=3.3V); ~0.3V hysteresis. |
| 14 | DOUT1 | output | RS-232 driver output for channel 1. Swings between V+ and V- levels (typically ±5.4V). Meets TIA/EIA-232-F output specifications; short-circuit current typically ±35 mA. |
| 15 | GND | power_in | Device ground reference. All voltages are with respect to this network GND. |
| 16 | VCC | power_in | Supply voltage input, +3.0V to +5.5V. Typical supply current 1 mA (no load, VCC=3.3V). Bypass to GND with a 0.1µF ceramic capacitor. |

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 662 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.
