Product details

RS232 transceiver for 3.3V and 5V serial links

It handles data rates up to 250 kbps, sufficient for legacy UART-based peripherals, industrial terminals, and configuration ports. Supply voltage spans 3V to 5.5V, so the same BOM position works on a 3.3V MCU or a 5V legacy backplane without a level translator.

Frequently asked questions

Is ICL3232ECAZ-T RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant per the manufacturer's listing.

How many drivers and receivers does ICL3232ECAZ-T have?

Two drivers and two receivers, providing two full RS232 channels.

Can ICL3232ECAZ-T replace a MAX3232?

Both are 2/2 RS232 transceivers in similar packages with comparable supply range and data rate. Verify the pinout and receiver hysteresis against your specific MAX3232 variant before committing the BOM.

What is the closest functional second-source to ICL3232ECAZ-T?

For a 2/2 replacement, check the MAX3232 or SP3232 families.
