GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The CBM3232 is a 3.3V powered
EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communication
interface with low power requirements, high
data-rate capabilities. CBM3232 has a
proprietary low dropout transmitter output
stage providing true RS-232 performance
from 3.3vVto 5.5V supplies. The device
requires only four small 0.1 µF standard
external capacitors for operations from 3.3V
supply.
The CBM3232 has two receivers and two
drivers. The device is guaranteed to run at
data rates of 120Kbps while maintaining
RS-232 output levels. Typical applications are
Notebook, Subnotebook and Palmtop
Computers, Battery Powered Equipment,
Hand-Held Equipment, Peripherals and
Printers.
