Product Summary

The SP3232EEN-2 is an RS-232 transceiver solution intended for portable or hand-held applications such as notebook or palmtop computers. The SP3232EEN-2 has a high-efficiency, charge-pump power supply that requires only 0.1μF capacitors in 3.3V operation. This charge pump allows the SP3232EEN-2 to deliver true RS-232 performance from a single power supply ranging from +3.3V to +5.0V. The SP3232EEN-2 is a 2-driver/2-receiver device.
