What are the key features of TRS3221ECPWR-LI?

  • Wide supply range: 3 V to 5.5 V, compatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V logic systems
  • ±15 kV IEC ESD protection on RS-232 I/O pins
  • Single-channel RS-232 driver/receiver with integrated charge-pump capacitors
  • 16-pin TSSOP package for compact PCB layouts
  • Supports data rates up to 250 kbps

What is TRS3221ECPWR-LI used for?

The TRS3221E is well-suited for embedded systems requiring RS-232 serial communication interfaces, such as industrial PLCs, barcode scanners, and point-of-sale terminals. Its robust ±15 kV ESD tolerance protects equipment in harsh factory floor or field environments where cable misconnections are common. The wide 3 V to 5.5 V supply range also makes it compatible with modern low-voltage microcontrollers needing legacy RS-232 port connectivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What supply voltage range does the TRS3221ECPWR-LI support, and how does it interface with both 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers?

The TRS3221E operates from 3 V to 5.5 V, making it directly compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V logic families without level-shifting. The internal charge pump generates the ±5.5 V RS-232 voltage levels from the single supply, simplifying board design and reducing external component count.

How does the ±15 kV ESD protection on the TRS3221ECPWR-LI benefit designs used in industrial or field environments?

The ±15 kV IEC ESD rating on all RS-232 I/O pins means the device can survive electrostatic discharge events common during cable connections in factory or outdoor settings, eliminating the need for external TVS diodes on most RS-232 lines and reducing BOM cost while improving long-term reliability.

In which package does the TRS3221ECPWR-LI come, and what maximum data rate does it support for serial communication?

The device is housed in a 16-pin TSSOP package with a peak reflow temperature of 260 °C, and supports RS-232 data rates up to 250 kbps, which comfortably covers the standard 115200 baud used by most embedded UART peripherals for console and debug interfaces.
