DESCRIPTION The ST232 is a 2 driver, 2 receiver device following EIA/TIA-232 and V.28 communication standard. It is particularly suitable for applications where 12V is not available. The ST232 uses a single 5V power supply and only four external capacitors (0.1F). Typical applications are in: Portable Computers, Low Power Modems, Interfaces Translation, Battery Powered RS-232 System, Multi-Drop RS-232 Networks. ORDERING CODES
