ICL3217ECB-T

ICL3217ECB-T is a popular integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It is a high-speed, low-power, and single-supply RS-232 transceiver designed to facilitate bidirectional communication between a microcontroller or a UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter) and RS-232 devices. Key Features: 1. RS-232 Transceiver: ICL3217ECB-T provides a highly integrated solution for RS-232 communication. It contains both the driver and receiver circuitry, allowing seamless communication with RS-232 devices. 2. High-Speed Operation: With its high-speed capabilities, the IC can support data rates up to 1 Mbps, enabling fast and efficient data transfer. 3. Low Power Consumption: The ICL3217ECB-T is designed to operate at low power, making it ideal for battery-operated devices or applications where power efficiency is critical. 4. Single 3.3V Supply: This IC operates using a single 3.3V power supply, simplifying the design and reducing the need for additional power regulation components. 5. Integrated Charge Pumps: The transceiver includes an integrated charge pump voltage converter, which generates the required RS-232 voltage levels (-10V to +10V) from the 3.3V supply, eliminating the need for external voltage level shifters
