Overview

Description

The ISL4270E is a 3. 0V to 5. 5V powered RS-232 transceiver that meets ElA/TIA-232 and V. 28/V. 24 specifications, even at VCC = 3. 0V. It provides ±15kV ESD protection (IEC61000-4-2 Air Gap and Human Body Model) on transmitter outputs and receiver inputs (RS-232 pins). Targeted applications are notebook and laptop computers where the low operational power consumption and even lower standby power consumption is critical. Efficient on-chip charge-pumps coupled with manual and enhanced automatic powerdown functions reduce the standby supply current to a 300nA trickle. The 5mmx5mm Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) packaging and the use of small, low value capacitors ensure board space savings. Data rates greater than 250kbps are ensured at worst case load conditions. The ISL4270E features a VL pin that adjusts the logic pin output levels and input thresholds to values compatible with the VCC powering the external logic (for example, a UART). This device includes an enhanced automatic powerdown function that powers down the on-chip power-supply and driver circuits. Automatic powerdown occurs when all receiver and transmitter inputs detect no signal transitions for a period of 30 seconds. The ISL4270E automatically powers back up whenever it senses a transition on any transmitter or receiver input. Application Note AN9863 summarizes the features of each device comprising the 3V RS-232 family.
