Design a Custom BoardAbout This Component
Quad RS-232 line driver and receiver IC for converting between TTL/CMOS logic levels and RS-232 signal levels. Operates from single +5V supply with integrated charge pumps for ±10V output generation. Commonly used in serial communication interfaces, industrial equipment, and legacy computer peripherals requiring RS-232 connectivity.
Package: TSSOP-16 (4.4×5mm) · 16 pins
Why does this need a breakout?
The 0.65mm pitch makes hand soldering difficult and error-prone; a breakout board lets you solder standard headers instead. This package hosts precision analog and mixed-signal ICs like DACs and ADCs that benefit from clean PCB layouts and decoupling placement. Prototyping becomes faster with breadboard-compatible pin headers, eliminating the need for a custom carrier PCB.
