Description and Introduction

One microamp supply-current, +3V to +5.5V, 250kbps, RS-232 transmitter/receiver The ICL3241CB is a RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Intersil (now part of Renesas Electronics). Below are the key specifications, descriptions, and features based on the available knowledge base:

### **Specifications:**
- **Supply Voltage:** 3.0V to 5.5V  
- **Data Rate:** Up to 250kbps  
- **Number of Drivers/Receivers:** 1 Driver, 1 Receiver  
- **Operating Temperature Range:** -40°C to +85°C  
- **Package:** 16-pin SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit)  
- **ESD Protection:** ±15kV (Human Body Model)  
- **Interface Type:** RS-232  

### **Descriptions:**
- The ICL3241CB is a low-power, single-channel RS-232 transceiver designed for serial communication applications.  
- It is compatible with 3V to 5V logic levels, making it suitable for mixed-voltage systems.  
- The device includes an integrated charge pump to generate RS-232 voltage levels (±5.5V) from a single supply.  

### **Features:**
- **Low Power Consumption:** Operates with minimal power draw, ideal for battery-powered devices.  
- **Auto-Powerdown:** Automatically enters low-power mode when not in use.  
- **Enhanced ESD Protection:** Protects against electrostatic discharge (ESD) up to ±15kV.  
- **Wide Supply Voltage Range:** Supports 3V to 5.5V operation.  
- **Compliant with EIA/TIA-232-F Standards:** Ensures compatibility with RS-232 communication protocols.

Alternative Part Number

  • MAX3241CAI+ --: Pin-compatible 3V/5V RS-232 transceiver with three drivers and five receivers, functionally equivalent to the ICL3241 and widely available.
  • SP3241ECA-L --: Direct functional replacement for the ICL3241 RS-232 transceiver family, offering similar driver/receiver count and supply range.
  • ADM3241EARUZ --: Equivalent 3-driver/5-receiver RS-232 interface IC with comparable electrical characteristics and pinout.
  • MAX3241CAI --: Pin-compatible 3V RS-232 transceiver with same 3-driver/5-receiver configuration and similar speed, widely used as a direct substitute.
  • SP3241ECA --: Equivalent 3V RS-232 transceiver with matching driver/receiver count and pinout, suitable drop-in replacement.
  • ADM3241ARU --: Comparable 3V RS-232 transceiver offering same functionality and package options, usable as an alternative with minor layout checks.
  • SP3243ECA-L --: 3V RS-232 transceiver with matching driver/receiver configuration and similar shutdown/auto-online features, suitable as a functional replacement.
  • ADM3243EARUZ --: Low-power 3V RS-232 transceiver with comparable channel count and performance, usable as an alternative with minor layout considerations.
