ICL3241 Intersil, ICL3241 Datasheet - Page 15

• Manufacturer Part Number: ICL3241
• Description: 1 Microamp Supply-Current/ +3V to +5.5V/ 250kbps/ RS-232 Transmitters/Receivers
• Manufacturer: Intersil

High Data Rates
The ICL32XX maintain the RS-232 5V minimum transmitter
output voltages even at high data rates. Figure 10 details a
transmitter loopback test circuit, and Figure 11 illustrates the
loopback test result at 120kbps. For this test, all transmitters
were simultaneously driving RS-232 loads in parallel with
1000pF, at 120kbps. Figure 12 shows the loopback results
for a single transmitter driving 1000pF and an RS-232 load
at 250kbps. The static transmitters were also loaded with an
RS-232 receiver.
