Low Power +3V to +5.5V, 250kbps RS232 Transceivers
General Description
The ZT32xxE series devices are 3V powered EIA/TIA-232
and V.28/V.24 communication interfaces with low power
requirements. They consist of two line drivers, two line
receivers and the proprietary switch-capacitor regulated
voltage converters. The ZT3220E has a 1Tx and 1Rx configu-
ration. These devices operate from a single 3V to 5.5V
power supply at the guaranteed data rate of 250k bits/sec
with enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection in
all RS232 I/O pins exceeding ±15kV EN61000-4-2 Air Gap
Discharge and ±8kV EN61000-4-2 Contact Discharge.
The ZT3221E and ZT3223E features the AUTOGREEN
(patent pending) proprietary function which automatically
powers down the on-chip regulated voltage converters
and driver circuits when an RS-232 cable is disconnected
from the host interface or when a connected peripheral
device is turned off.

Storage Considerations
Storage in a low humidity environment is preferred. Large
high density plastic packages are moisture sensitive and
should be stored in Dry Vapor Barrier Bags. Prior to usage,
the parts should remain bagged and stored below 40°C
and 60%RH. If the parts are removed from the bag, they
should be used within 48 hours or stored in an environ-
ment at or below 20%RH. If the above conditions cannot
be followed, the parts should be baked for four hours at
125°C in order remove moisture prior to soldering. Zywyn
ships product in Dry Vapor Barrier Bags with a humidity
indicator card and desiccant pack. The humidity indicator
should be below 30%RH.
