The ST3237E is a high performance EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 transceiver with 3V to 5.5V power supply, high data rate capability and enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection at ±8KV using IEC1000-4-2 contact discharge and ±15kV using Human Body Model (HBM). The device is guaranteed to run at data rates of 250Kbps in the normal operation mode and 1Mbps in the very high speed operation mode while maintaining RS-232 output levels.
The ST3237E is an EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communication interface designed for high data-rate applications with enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection. It features a proprietary low-dropout transmitter output stage that provides true RS-232 performance from a 3V to 5.5V supply using a dual charge pump.
The device supports guaranteed data rates of 250Kbps in normal operation and up to 1Mbps in very high speed operation mode while maintaining RS-232 output levels. It offers advanced ESD protection ratings of +15kV for the Human Body Model (HBM) and +8kV for IEC 1000-4-2 contact discharge on its I/O pins.
