DESCRIPTION/ORDERING INFORMATION
The TRS3237E consists of five line drivers, three line receivers, and a dual charge-pump circuit with ±15-kV ESD
protection pin to pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND). The device meets the requirements of
TIA/EIA-232-F and provides the electrical interface between an asynchronous communication controller and the
serial-port connector. The charge pump and four small external capacitors allow operation from a single 3-V to
5.5-V supply. This device operates at data signaling rates of 250 kbit/s in normal operating mode
(MBAUD = GND) and 1Mbit/s when MBAUD = VCC. The driver output slew rate is a maximum of 30 V/ms.

The TRS3237E transmitters are disabled and the outputs are forced into high-impedance state when the device
is in shutdown mode (SHDN = GND) and the supply current falls to less than 1 mA. Also, during shutdown, the
onboard charge pump is disabled; V+ is lowered to VCC, and V– is raised toward GND. Receiver outputs also
can be placed in the high-impedance state by setting enable (EN) high. ROUT1B remains active all the time,
regardless of the EN and SHDN condition.
The TRS3237EC is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The TRS3237EI is characterized for operation
from –40°C to 85°C.

Stresses beyond those listed under "absolute maximum ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings
only, and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "recommended operating
conditions" is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
All voltages are with respect to network GND.
The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7.

The marketing status values are defined as follows:
ACTIVE: Product device recommended for new designs.
LIFEBUY: TI has announced that the device will be discontinued, and a lifetime-buy period is in effect.
NRND: Not recommended for new designs. Device is in production to support existing customers, but TI does not recommend using this part in a new design.
PREVIEW: Device has been announced but is not in production. Samples may or may not be available.
OBSOLETE: TI has discontinued the production of the device.

RoHS: TI defines "RoHS" to mean semiconductor products that are compliant with the current EU RoHS requirements for all 10 RoHS substances, including the requirement that RoHS substance
do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered at high temperatures, "RoHS" products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes. TI may
reference these types of products as "Pb-Free".
RoHS Exempt: TI defines "RoHS Exempt" to mean products that contain lead but are compliant with EU RoHS pursuant to a specific EU RoHS exemption.
Green: TI defines "Green" to mean the content of Chlorine (Cl) and Bromine (Br) based flame retardants meet JS709B low halogen requirements of
