+5V Powered RS-232
Transmitters/Receivers
The HIN232-HIN241 family of RS-232 transmitters/receiv ers
interf ace circuits meet all ElA RS-232E and V.28 specifications,
and are particularly suited for those applications where ±12V is
not available. The y require a single +5V pow er supply (e xcept
HIN239) and feature onboard charge pump voltage conv erters
which generate +10V and -1 0V supplies from th e 5V supply.
The family of de vices offer a wide variety of RS-232
transmitter/receiv er combinations to accommodate various
applications (see Selection Table).
The drivers feature true TTL/CMOS input compatibility, slew-
rate-limited output, and 300 power-off source impedance.
The receivers can handle up to ±30V, and ha ve a 3k to 7k
input impedance. The receivers also feature hysteresis to
greatly improve noise rejection.

Pin Descriptions
PIN FUNCTION
VCC Power Supply Input 5V ±10%.
V+ Internally generated positive supply (+10V nominal), HIN239 requires +7.5V to +13.2V.
V- Internally generated negative supply (-10V nominal).
GND Ground lead. Connect to 0V.
C1+ External capacitor (+ terminal) is connected to this lead.
C1- External capacitor (- terminal) is connected to this lead.
C2+ External capacitor (+ terminal) is connected to this lead.
C2- External capacitor (- terminal) is connected to this lead.
TIN Transmitter Inputs . These le ads accept TTL/CMOS levels . An internal 400kpull-up resistor to VCC is connected to each lead.
TOUT Transmitter Outputs. These are RS-232 levels (nominally ±10V).
RIN Receiver In puts. These inputs accept RS-232 input le vels. A n internal 5kpull-down resistor to GND is connected to each input.
ROUT Receiver Outputs. These are TTL/CMOS levels.
EN Enable input. This is an active lo w input which enables the receiver outputs . With EN = 5V, the receiv er outputs are placed in
a high impedance state.
SD Shutdown Input. With SD = 5V, the charge pump is disabled, the receiver outputs are in a high impedance state and the
transmitters are shut off.
NC No Connect. No connections are made to these leads.

sets; molding compounds/die attach materials and 100% matte tin
plate termination finish, which is compatible with both SnPb and
Pb-free soldering operations. Intersil Pb-free products are MSL
classified at Pb-free peak reflow temperatures that meet or exceed
the Pb-free requirements of IPC/JEDEC J Std-020B.

Detailed Description
The HIN232 thru HIN241 f amily of RS-232
transmitters/receivers are po wered b y a single +5V po wer
supply (e xcept HIN239), f eature low power consumption, and
meet all ElA RS-232C and V.28 specifications. The circuit is
divided into three sections: The charge pump, transmitter, and
receiver.
Charge Pump
An equiv alent ci rcuit of the charge pump is illustr a ted in
Figure 1. The charge pump contains two sections: the v oltage
double r and the voltage inverter. Each section is drive n by a
two phase , internally generated cloc k to gener ate +10V and
-10V. The nominal clock frequency is 16kHz. During phase
one of the cloc k, ca pacitor C1 is charged to V CC. During
phase two, the voltage on C1 is added to VCC, producing a
signal across C3 equal to twice VCC. During phase one , C2 is
also charged to 2 VCC, and then during phase two, it is
inv erted with respect to ground to produce a signal across C4
equal to -2VCC. The charge pump accepts input vo ltages up
to 5.5V. The output impedance of th e voltage doubler section
(V+) is approximately 200 , and the output impedance of the
vo ltage inverter section (V-) is approximately 450. A typical
application uses 1µF capacitors f or C1-C4, ho wev er , the value
is not critical. Increasing the v alues of C1 and C2 will lo wer the
output impedance of the v oltage d oubler and inverter,
increasing the v alues of the reservoir capacitors , C3 and C4,
low ers the ripple on the V+ an d V- supplies.
During shutdown mode (HIN236, HIN240 and HIN241),
SHUTDO WN control line set to logic “1”, the charge pump is
turned off , V+ is pulled down to VCC, V- is pulled up to GND,
and the supply current is reduced to less than 10µA. The
transmitter outputs are disabled and the receiver outputs are
placed in the high impedance state.

Transmitters
The transmitters are TTL/CMOS compatible inv erters which
translate the inputs to RS-232 outputs. The input logic threshold
is about 26% of VCC, or 1.3V fo r VCC = 5V. A logic 1 at the
input results in a voltage of between -5V and V- at the output,
and a logic 0 results in a voltage betw een +5V and (V+ -0.6V).
Each transmitter input has an internal 400k pullup resistor so
any unused input can be left unconnected and its output
remains in its low state . The output voltage swing meets the
RS-232C specifications of ±5V minimum with the worst case
conditions of: all transmitters driving 3k minimum load
impedance, VCC = 4.5V, and maximum allowable operating
temperature. The transmitters hav e an internally limited output
slew r ate which is less than 30V/µs. The outputs are short
circuit protected and can be shorted to ground indefinitely. The
powered do wn output impedance is a minimum of 300 with
±2V applied to the outputs and VCC = 0V.
Receivers
The receiver inputs accept up to ±30V while presenting the
required 3k to 7k input impedance ev en if the pow er is off
(VCC = 0V). The receivers have a typical input threshold of
1.3V which is within the ±3V limits, known as the transition
region, of the RS-232 specifications. The receiver output is
0V to VCC. The output will be low whenever the input is
greater than 2.4V and high whenever the input is floating or
driven between +0.8V and -30V. The receivers feature 0.5V
hysteresis to improve noise rejection. The receiver Enabl e
line EN, when set to logic “1”, (HIN236, 239, 240, and 241)
disables the receiver outputs, placing them in the high
impedance mode. The receiver outputs are also placed in
the high impedance state when in shutd own mode.

Applications
The HIN2XX may be used for all RS-232 data terminal and
communication links. It is particula rly useful in applications
where ±12V power supplies are not available for
conventional RS-232 interface circuits. The applications
presented represent typical interface configurations.
A simple duplex RS-232 port with CTS/RTS handshaking is
illustrated in Figure 9. Fixed output signals such as DTR
(data ter m inal ready) and DSRS (data signaling rate select)
is generated by driving them through a 5k resistor
connected to V+.
In applications requiring four RS-232 inputs and outputs
(Figure 10), note that each circuit requires two charge pump
capacitors (C1 and C2) but can share common reservoir
capacitors (C3 and C4). The benefit of sharing common
reservoir capacitors is the elimination of two capacitors and
the reduction of the charge pump source impedance which
effectively increases the output swing of the transmitters.

terlead flash and protrusions shall not exceed 0.25mm (0.010
inch) per side.
5. The chamfer on the body is optional. If it is not present, a visual
index feature must be located within the crosshatched area.
6. “L” is the length of terminal for soldering to a substrate.
7. “N” is the number of terminal positions.
8. Terminal numbers are shown for reference only.
9. The lead width “B”, as measured 0.36mm (0.014 inch) or greater
above the seating plane, shall not exceed a maximum value of
0.61mm (0.024 inch)
10. Controlling dimension: MILLIMETER. Converted inch dimen-
sions are not necessarily exact.
