General Description
The UM202EExE series are low power single supply RS232 interface. The device consists of two
line drivers, two line receivers, and dual charge pump circuit. The device meets the requirements
of TIA/EIA-232 standard and provides the electrical interface between an asynchronous
communication controller and the serial-port connector. The on chip charge pump and four small
external capacitors act as onboard DC to DC converter, allow chip operated from single 5V
supply, eliminating the need for ±10V power supplies, reduce cost and board space. The device
operates at data signaling rates over 250Kbps. The slew rate of driver is set internally less than
30V/μs and the receivers feature internal noise filtering, eliminating the need for external slew
rate and filter capacitors for reliable operation. The driver inputs and receiver outputs are TTL and
CMOS compatible. UM202EExE comes in 16 pin DIP, SOP and TSSOP packages, operating over
the commercial and industrial temperature ranges.
The ESD tolerance has been upgraded on these devices to over ±15KV for both Human Body
Model and IEC61000-4-2 Air Discharge Method, without latch-up. The device operates with four
0.1μF capacitors, reduce system cost and board space.

Detailed Description
The UM202EExE consists of three sections: charge-pump voltage converters, drivers, and
receivers. These E versions provide extra protection against ESD. They survive ±15kV discharges
to the RS-232 inputs and outputs, tested using the Human Body Model. When tested according to
IEC61000-4-2, they survive ±8kV contact-discharges and ±15kV air-gap discharges. The rugged
E versions are intended for use in harsh environments or applications where the RS-232
connection is frequently changed. The UM202EExE devices have internal charge pump voltage
converters which allow them to operate from a single +5V supply. The charge pumps will operate
with polarized or non-polarized capacitors ranging from 0.1 to 10μF and will generate the ±9V
needed to generate the RS-232 output levels.
RS-232 Drivers
The drivers are inverting transmitters, which accept TTL or CMOS inputs and output RS-232
signals with an inverted sense relative to the input logic levels. Typically the RS-232 output
voltage swing is ±9V. Even under worst case loading conditions of 3kΩ and 2500pF, the output is

http://www.union-ic.com Rev.04 Jan.2013
4/11
UM202EExE
guaranteed to be ±5V, which is consistent with the RS-232 standard specifications. The
transmitter outputs are protected against infinite short-circuits to ground without degradation in
reliability. The instantaneous slew rate of the transmitter output is internally limited to a
maximum of 30V/μs in order to meet the RS-232 standard. The smooth transition of the loaded
output from V
OL
to V
OH
clearly meets the monotonicity requirements of the RS-232 standard.
RS-232 Receivers
The receivers convert RS-232 input signals to inverted TTL signals. The input thresholds are 0.8V
minimum and 2.4V maximum, again well within the 3V RS-232 requirements. The receiver
inputs are also protected against voltage up to 30V. A 5kΩ pull down resistor to ground will
commit the output of the receiver to a high state when the pin is float. In actual system
applications, it is quite possible for signals to be applied to the receiver inputs before power is
applied the receiver circuitry. This occurs, for example, when a PC user attempts to print, only to
realize the printer wasn’t turned on. In this case an RS-232 signal from the PC will appear on the
receiver input at the printer. When the printer power is turned on, the receiver will operate
normally. All of these enhanced devices are fully protected.
ESD Protection
UM202EExE devices have standard ESD protection structures incorporated on the pins to protect
against electrostatic discharges encountered during assembly and handling. In addition, the RS232
bus pins (driver outputs and receiver input) of these devices have an extra level of ESD protection.
Advanced ESD structures were designed to successfully protect these pins against ESD discharge
of ±15kV Human Body Model when powered down or up.
