TECHNICAL DATA
Interface Transceiver of RS-232 Standard
with One Supply Voltage
DESCRIPTION
ILX3232
The ILX3232 is a 3V powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communication interface with low power
requirements, high data-rate capabilities. ILX3232 has a proprietary low dropout transmitter output stage
providing true RS-232 performance from 3 to 5.5V supplies. The device requires only four small 0.1 µF
standard external capacitors for operations from 3V supply.
The ILX3232 has two receivers and two drivers. The device is guaranteed to run at data rates of
250Kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels. Typical applications are Notebook, Subnotebook and
Palmtop Computers, Battery Powered Equipment, Hand-Held Equipment, Peripherals and Printers.

Absolute Maximum Ratings are those values beyond which damage to the device may occur. Functional operation under these
condition is not implied. V+ and V-can have a maximum magnitude of +7V, but their absolute addition can not exceed 13 V.
