The ICL3245EIB-T is an integrated circuit (IC) component manufactured by Intersil Corporation. It is a quad, low-power, RS-232 transceiver designed for use in various communication applications. This IC offers reliable and robust performance, making it suitable for industrial, automotive, and battery-powered systems.
One of the key features of the ICL3245EIB-T is its low power consumption, which makes it ideal for battery-powered devices. It operates from a single power supply ranging from 3.0V to 5.5V, making it compatible with a wide range of systems. Additionally, it has a low shutdown current, which further enhances power efficiency.
The ICL3245EIB-T is a quad transceiver, meaning it has four independent channels. Each channel can be used for full-duplex communication, capable of both receiving and transmitting data. The transceiver integrates a charge pump to generate the required RS-232 voltage levels, eliminating the need for an external voltage supply.
Another noteworthy feature is the ICL3245EIB-T's ESD protection, which safeguards against electrostatic discharge. It is designed to withstand up to ±15kV electrostatic discharge without damage, providing robust protection to the communication circuitry.
Furthermore, this IC supports data rates up to 235kbps, enabling high-speed communication. It also offers a wide common-mode voltage range, allowing for reliable data transmission in noisy environments
