ADM232LJNZ - High-Speed, 5 V, 0.1 μF CMOS RS-232 Drivers/Receivers

The ADM232LJNZ is a robust, high-speed transceiver from Analog Devices Inc., designed to interface data terminal equipment (DTE) with data circuit-terminating equipment (DCE). This product is part of a family of devices that operate from a single 5 V power supply and feature onboard charge pump voltage converters, which allow the transceiver to conform to RS-232 voltage levels using only 0.1 μF external capacitors.

This integrated circuit is optimized for operation in harsh environments, with an operating temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. The ADM232LJNZ features two drivers and two receivers, making it suitable for full-duplex communication, and it is capable of achieving data rates up to 200 kbps. Its low-power shutdown mode, which reduces power consumption to less than 5 μW, makes it ideal for power-sensitive applications.

Furthermore, the ADM232LJNZ provides a reliable solution for data transmission with its enhanced electro-static discharge (ESD) protection, capable of withstanding ±15 kV on the RS-232 input/output lines, thereby safeguarding the device in environments prone to static electricity.

Key features of the ADM232LJNZ include:

• Single 5 V power supply operation
• Low power consumption with a power-saving shutdown mode
• Two RS-232 drivers and two RS-232 receivers
• Operates with 0.1 μF charge pump capacitors
• 200 kbps transmission rate
• ±15 kV ESD protection on RS-232 I/O pins
• Industry-standard 16-pin PDIP (Plastic Dual In-line Package)

The ADM232LJNZ is commonly used in a variety of applications such as portable or compact communication devices, modems, printers, and other serial data communication systems. Its reliability and high-speed data capabilities make it an excellent choice for engineers and designers looking for a proven RS-232 interface solution.

With its combination of features, the ADM232LJNZ from Analog Devices Inc. represents a versatile and durable solution for RS-232 communication in both commercial and industrial environments.
