The ISL32179EIRZ-T is an IC (integrated circuit) component developed by Renesas Electronics Corporation, widely used in industrial automation, instrumentation, and communication systems. It is a compact and versatile RS-232 transceiver with advanced features that improve reliability, performance, and noise immunity in serial communication applications.
The key features of the ISL32179EIRZ-T can be summarized as follows:
1. RS-232 Transceiver: This IC serves as a two-way interface converter between CMOS/TTL logic-level signals and the RS-232 standard voltage levels (+/- 5V). It allows seamless communication between modern microcontrollers or logic circuits and legacy RS-232-based devices.
2. Robust ESD Protection: The ISL32179EIRZ-T offers industry-leading ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection, with ±15kV HBM (Human Body Model) and ±15kV IEC61000-4-2 Air-Gap Discharge ratings on the RS-232 bus pins. This high protection level ensures immunity to damage from electrostatic discharge during handling or operation.
3. Wide Supply Voltage Range: The component has a wide supply voltage range of +3.0V to +5.5V, making it compatible with various power sources, including single-cell batteries or common power rails used in industrial applications
