Pin Descriptions

PIN

FUNCTION

System power supply input (3.0V to 5.5V).

V+

Internally generated positive transmitter supply (+5.5V).

V-

Internally generated negative transmitter supply (-5.5V).

GND

Ground connection.

C1+

External capacitor (voltage doubler) is connected to this lead.

C1-

External capacitor (voltage doubler) is connected to this lead.

C2+

External capacitor (voltage inverter) is connected to this lead.

C2-

External capacitor (voltage inverter) is connected to this lead.

TTL/CMOS compatible transmitter Inputs.

±15kV ESD Protected

±15kV ESD Protected

TTL/CMOS level receiver outputs.

TTL/CMOS level, noninverting, always enabled receiver outputs.

INVALID

Active low output that indicates if no valid RS-232 levels are present on any receiver input.

READY

Active high output that indicates when the ICL32XXE is ready to transmit (i.e., V-

≤ -4V).

FORCEOFF Active low to shut down transmitters and on-chip power supply. This overrides any automatic circuitry and FORCEON (see Table 2).

FORCEON Active high input to override automatic powerdown circuitry thereby keeping transmitters active. (FORCEOFF must be high).
