ST202EBDR – RS-232 Transceiver, ±15kV ESD, 2 Drivers / 2 Receivers, 4.5V–5.5V Supply, SOIC-16, STMicroelectronics

The ST202EBDR from STMicroelectronics is a high-performance RS-232 transceiver featuring two drivers and two receivers, designed for reliable serial communication between logic-level devices and RS-232 interfaces. It operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply and supports data rates up to 120 kbps.

With ±15kV ESD protection (IEC 1000-4-2 Air-Gap Discharge) on all RS-232 lines, this IC ensures robust performance in harsh environments. It includes internal charge pumps and complies with EIA/TIA-232-F and ITU V.28 standards. Ideal for embedded systems, serial ports, modems, and industrial equipment, it comes in a compact SOIC-16 package for surface-mount applications.
