3 Description
IBM™
Single-chip and single-supply interface for
PC/AT™ serial port
ESD Protection for RS-232 bus pins
– ±15-kV Human-body model (HBM)
– ±8-kV IEC61000-4-2, Contact discharge
– ±15-kV IEC61000-4-2, Air-gap discharge
Meets or exceeds requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F
and ITU v.28 standards
Operates with 3-V to 5.5-V VCC supply
Always-active noninverting receiver output
(ROUT2B)
Designed to transmit at a data rate up to
500 kbit/s
Low standby current: 1 μA typical
External capacitors: 4 × 0.1 μF
Accepts 5-V logic input with 3.3-V supply
Designed to be interchangeable with industry
standard '3243E devices
Serial-mouse driveability
Auto-powerdown feature to disable driver outputs
when no valid RS-232 signal is sensed
Package options include plastic small-outline
(DW), shrink small-outline (DB), and thin shrink
small-outline (PW)
The TRS3243E device consists of three line drivers,
five line receivers, and a dual charge-pump circuit
with ±15-kV ESD (HBM and IEC61000-4-2, Air-Gap
Discharge) and ±8-kV ESD (IEC61000-4-2, Contact
Discharge) protection on serial-port connection
pins. 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. This combination of
drivers and receivers matches that needed for
the typical serial port used in an IBM PC/AT, or
compatible. The charge pump and four small external
capacitors allow operation from a single 3-V to
5.5-V supply. In addition, the device includes an
always-active noninverting output (ROUT2B), which
allows applications using the ring indicator to transmit
data while the device is powered down. The device
operates at data signaling rates up to 250 kbit/s and a
maximum of 30-V/μs driver output slew rate.

Operation outside the Absolute Maximum Ratings may cause permanent device damage. Absolute Maximum Ratings do not imply
functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those listed under Recommended Operating Conditions.
If used outside the Recommended Operating Conditions but within the Absolute Maximum Ratings, the device may not be fully
functional, and this may affect device reliability, functionality, performance, and shorten the device lifetime.
All voltages are with respect to network GND.

8 Detailed Description
8.1 Overview
Flexible control options for power management are available when the serial port is inactive. The autopowerdown feature functions when FORCEON is low and FORCEOFF is high. During this mode of operation, if
the device does not sense a valid RS-232 signal, the driver outputs are disabled. If FORCEOFF is set low, both
drivers and receivers (except ROUT2B) are shut off, and the supply current is reduced to 1 μA.
Disconnecting the serial port or turning off the peripheral drivers causes the auto-powerdown condition to occur.
Auto-powerdown can be disabled when FORCEON and FORCEOFF are high, and should be done when driving
a serial mouse. With auto-powerdown enabled, the device is activated automatically when a valid signal is
applied to any receiver input. The INVALID output is used to notify the user if an RS-232 signal is present at any
receiver input. INVALID is high (valid data) if any receiver input voltage is greater than 2.7 V or less than –2.7
V or has been between –0.3 V and 0.3 V for less than 30 μs. INVALID is low (invalid data) if all receiver input
voltages are between –0.3 V and 0.3 V for more than 30 μs. Refer to Figure 7-5 for receiver input levels.
The TRS3243E is characterized for operation from 0°C to 70°C. The TRS3243EI is characterized for operation
from –40°C to +85°C.

9.1.1 Detailed Design Procedure
9.1.1.1 ESD Protection
TI TRS3243E devices have standard ESD protection structures incorporated on the pins to protect against
electrostatic discharges encountered during assembly and handling. In addition, the RS232 bus pins (driver
outputs and receiver inputs) of these devices have an extra level of ESD protection. Advanced ESD structures
were designed to successfully protect these bus pins against ESD discharge of ±15-kV in all states: normal
operation, shutdown, and powered down. The TRS3243E devices are designed to continue functioning properly
after an ESD occurrence without any latchup.
The TRS3243E devices have three specified ESD limits on the driver outputs and receiver inputs, with respect to
GND:
• ±15-kV Human-Body Model (HBM)
• ±15-kV IEC61000-4-2, Air-Gap Discharge (formerly IEC1000-4-2)
• ±8-kV IEC61000-4-2, Contact Discharge
9.1.1.2 ESD Test Conditions
ESD testing is stringently performed by TI, based on various conditions and procedures. Please contact TI for a
reliability report that documents test setup, methodology, and results.
9.1.1.3 Human-Body Model (HBM)
The HBM of ESD testing is shown in Figure 9-2, while Figure 9-3 shows the current waveform that is generated
during a discharge into a low impedance. The model consists of a 100-pF capacitor, charged to the ESD voltage
of concern, and subsequently discharged into the DUT through a 1.5-kΩ resistor.

9.1.1.4 IEC61000-4-2 (Formerly Known as IEC1000-4-2)
Unlike the HBM, MM, and CDM ESD tests that apply to component level integrated circuits, the IEC61000-4-2
is a system-level ESD testing and performance standard that pertains to the end equipment. The TRS3243E
is designed to enable the manufacturer in meeting the highest level (Level 4) of IEC61000-4-2 ESD protection
with no further need of external ESD protection circuitry. The more stringent IEC test standard has a higher peak
current than the HBM, due to the lower series resistance in the IEC model.
Figure 9-4 shows the IEC61000-4-2 model, and Figure 9-5 shows the current waveform for the corresponding
±8-kV contact-discharge (Level 4) test. This waveform is applied to a probe that has been connected to the DUT.
On the other hand, the corresponding ±15-kV (Level 4) air-gap discharge test involves approaching the DUT with
an already energized probe.
