DESCRIPTION…
The
Sipex SP231A, SP232A
and
SP233A
are enhanced versions of the
Sipex SP231, SP232
and
SP233
RS-232 line drivers/receivers. They are pin-for-pin replacements for these earlier
versions and will operate in their sockets. Performance enhancements include 10V/µs slew rate,
120k bits per second guaranteed transmission rate, and increased drive current for longer and
more flexible cable configurations. Ease of use enhancements include smaller, 0.1µF charge
pump capacitors, enhanced ESD protection, low power dissipation and overall ruggedized
construction for commercial environments. The series is available in plastic and ceramic DIP and
SOIC packages operating over the commercial, industrial and military temperature ranges.
