Low Supply Current: 300µA
ESD Protection: Over
±10kV
1µA Supply Current in Shutdown
Operates from a Single 5V Supply
Uses Small Capacitors: 0.1µF
Operates to 120k Baud
Three-State Outputs Are High Impedance When Off
Output Overvoltage Does Not Force Current Back into
Supplies
RS232 I/O Lines Can Be Forced to
±25V
without
Damage
Pin Compatible with LT

1137A and LT1237
Flowthrough Architecture
The LTC
®
1337 is a 3-driver/5-receiver RS232 transceiver
with very low supply current. In the no load condition, the
supply current is only 300µA. The charge pump only
requires four 0.1µF capacitors and can supply up to 12mA
of extra current to power external circuitry.
In Shutdown mode, the supply current is further reduced
to 1µA. All RS232 outputs assume a high impedance state
in Shutdown and with the power off.
The LTC1337 is fully compliant with all data rate and
overvoltage RS232 specifications. The transceiver can
operate up to 120k baud with a 1000pF// 3kΩ load. Both
driver outputs and receiver inputs can be forced to
±25V
without damage, and can survive multiple
±10kV
ESD
strikes.
