3.3V, ±15kV ESD Protected, Two Port, Dual Protocol (RS-232/RS-485)
Transceivers
The ISL3332, ISL3333 are two port interface ICs where each
port can be independently configured as a single
RS-485/422 transceiver, or as a dual (2 Tx, 2 Rx) RS-232
transceiver. With both ports set to the same mode, two
RS-485/RS-422 transceivers, or four RS-232 transceivers
are available.
If either port is in RS-232 mode, the onboard charge pump
generates RS-232 compliant 5V Tx output levels from a
single VCC supply as low as 3.15V. The transceivers are
RS-232 compliant, with the Rx inputs handling up to 25V.
In RS-485 mode, the transceivers support both the RS-485
and RS-422 differential communication standards. The
receivers feature “full fail-safe” operation, so the Rx outputs
remain in a high state if the inputs are open or shorted
together. The transmitters support up to three data rates, two
of which are slew rate limited for problem free
communications. The charge pump disables when both
ports are in RS-485 mode, thereby saving power, minimizing
noise, and eliminating the charge pump capacitors.
Features
• 15kV (HBM) ESD Protected Bus Pins (RS-232 or
RS-485)
• Operates From a Single 3.3V Supply
• Two Independent Ports, Each User Selectable for RS-232
(2 Transceivers) or RS-485/RS-422 (1 Transceiver)
• True Flow-Through Pinouts Simplify Board Layouts
• Pb-free (RoHS compliant)
• Full Failsafe (Open/Short) Rx in RS-485/422 Mode
• Loopback Mode Facilitates Board Self Test Functions
• User Selectable RS-485 Data Rates (ISL3333 Only)
- Fast Speed . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20Mbps

• Fast RS-232 Data Rate . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Up to 400kbps
• RS-232 Tx and Rx Enable Pins (ISL3333 Only)
Both RS-232 and RS-485 modes feature loopback and
shutdown functions. Loopback internally connects the Tx
outputs to the corresponding Rx input, to facilitate board
level self test implementation. The outputs remain connected
to the loads during loopback, so connection problems (e.g.,
shorted connectors or cables) can be detected. Shutdown
mode disables the Tx and Rx outputs, disables the charge
pumps, and places the IC in a low current (35µA) mode.
• Small Charge Pump Caps . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 x 0.1µF
The ISL3333 is a QFN packaged device that includes two
additional user selectable, lower speed and edge rate
options for EMI sensitive designs, or to allow longer bus
lengths. It also features a logic supply pin (VL) that sets the
VOH level of logic outputs, and the switching points of logic
inputs, to be compatible with another supply voltage in mixed
voltage systems. The QFN also adds RS-232 mode Tx EN
pins (DEN), and active low Rx enable pins (RXEN) to
increase design flexibility. In RS-485 applications, active low
Rx enable pins allow Tx/Rx direction control, via a single
signal per port, by connecting the corresponding DE and
RXEN pins together.
• Gaming Applications (such as Slot Machines)
• Low Current Shutdown Mode. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .35µA
• QFN Package Saves Board Space (ISL3333 Only)
• Logic Supply Pin (VL) Eases Operation in Mixed Supply
Systems (ISL3333 Only)
Applications
• Single Board Computers
• Factory Automation
• Security Networks
• Industrial/Process Control Networks

LB
BOTH
Enables loopback mode when low. Internally pulled-high.
NC
BOTH
No Connection.
ON/OFF
BOTH
If either port is in RS-232 mode, a low on ON/OFF disables the charge pumps. In either mode, a low disables all the outputs,
and places the device in low power shutdown. Internally pulled-high. ON = 1 for normal operation.
RXEN
BOTH
Active low receiver output enable. The corresponding port’s Rx is enabled when RXEN is low; Rx is high impedance when
RXEN is high. Internally pulled low. (QFN only)
SEL
BOTH
Interface Mode Select input. High puts corresponding port in RS-485 Mode, while a low puts it in RS-232 Mode.
VCC
BOTH
System power supply input (3.3V).
VL
BOTH
Logic-Level Supply. All TTL/CMOS inputs and outputs are powered by this supply. QFN logic input pins that are externally
tied high in an application, should use the VL supply for the high voltage level. (QFN only)
DEN
A
RS-232 Active high driver output enable. The corresponding port’s 232 mode drivers are enabled when DEN is high; drivers are
disabled when DEN is low. Internally pulled high. (QFN only).
RS-232 Receiver input with 15kV ESD protection. A low on A forces RA high; A high on A forces RA low.
RS-485 Inverting receiver input with 15kV ESD protection.
B
RS-232 Receiver input with 15kV ESD protection. A low on B forces RB high; A high on B forces RB low.
RS-485 Noninverting receiver input with 15kV ESD protection.
DY
RS-232 Driver input. A low on DY forces output Y high. Similarly, a high on DY forces output Y low.
RS-485 Driver input. A low on DY forces output Y high and output Z low. Similarly, a high on DY forces output Y low and output Z high.
DZ / DE
RS-232 Driver input. A low on DZ forces output Z high. Similarly, a high on DZ forces output Z low.
RS-485 Driver output enable (DE). The driver outputs, Y and Z, are enabled by bringing DE high. They are high impedance when
DE is low. Internally pulled high when port selected for RS-485 mode.
RA
RS-232 Receiver output.
RS-485 Receiver output: If B > A by at least -40mV, RA is high; If B < A by -200mV or more, RA is low; RA = High if A and B are
unconnected (floating) or shorted together (i.e., full fail-safe).
RB

NOTES:
10. All currents into device pins are positive; all currents out of device pins are negative. All voltages are referenced to device ground unless
otherwise specified.
11. Supply current specification is valid for loaded drivers when DE = 0V (RS-485 mode) or DEN = 0V (RS-232 mode).
12. Applies to peak current. See “Typical Performance Curves” for more information.
13. RIN defaults to RS-485 mode (>15k) when the device is unpowered (VCC = 0V), or in SHDN, regardless of the state of the SEL inputs.
14. Parameters with MIN and/or MAX limits are 100% tested at +25°C, unless otherwise specified. Temperature limits established by
characterization and are not production tested.

Typical Application
Detailed Description
RS-232 to RS-485 Converter
Each of the two ISL333X ports supports dual protocols:
RS-485/422, and RS-232. RS-485 and RS-422 are differential
(balanced) data transmission standards for use in high speed
(up to 20Mbps) networks, or long haul and noisy
environments. The differential signaling, coupled with
RS-485’s requirement for an extended common mode range
(CMR) of +12V to -7V make these transceivers extremely
tolerant of ground potential differences, as well as voltages
induced in the cable by external fields. Both of these effects
are real concerns when communicating over the RS-485/422
maximum distance of 4000’ (1220m). It is important to note
that the ISL333X don’t follow the RS-485 convention
whereby the inverting I/O is labeled “B/Z”, and the non
inverting I/O is “A/Y”. Thus, in the application diagrams
below the 333X A/Y (B/Z) pins connect to the B/Z (A/Y)
pins of the generic RS-485/RS-422 ICs.
The ISL3332, ISL3333 are ideal for implementing a single IC
2-wire (Tx Data, Rx Data) protocol converter, because each
port can be programmed for a different protocol. Figure 8
illustrates the simple connections to create a single
transceiver RS-232 to RS-485 converter. Depending on the
RS-232 data rate, using an RS-422 bus as an RS-232
“extension cord” can extend the transmission distance up to
4000’ (1220m). A similar circuit on the other end of the cable
completes the conversion to/from RS-232.

RS-422 is typically a point-to-point (one driver talking to one
receiver on a bus), or a point-to-multipoint (multidrop)
standard that allows only one driver and up to 10 receivers
on each bus. Because of the one driver per bus limitation,
RS-422 networks use a two bus, full duplex structure for
bidirectional communication, and the Rx inputs and Tx
outputs (no tri-state required) connect to different busses, as
shown in Figure 10.

Conversely, RS-485 is a true multipoint standard, which
allows up to 32 devices (any combination of drivers- must be
tri-statable - and receivers) on each bus. Now bidirectional
communication takes place on a single bus, so the Rx inputs
and Tx outputs of a port connect to the same bus lines, as
shown in Figure 9. Each port set to RS-485 /422 mode
includes one Rx and one Tx.RS-232 is a point-to-point,
singled ended (signal voltages referenced to GND)
