Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Input: TTL RS232 polarity control with 32k ohm pull-up.

1

 

232INV

NC

 

Connect to ground for UART to UART signal polarity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pull up to Vin for standard TTL RS232 polarity.

2

 

 

Vin

 

Vin

 

Power: Supply voltage input (3V to 5.5V)

3

 

 

GND

 

GND

 

Ground: Power and signal ground.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Input: TTL Level RS232 Receive data input, weak pull up to Vin.

4

 

(n)RxD

D-

 

Polarity determined by Pin1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bidirectional: USB D- Signal

5

 

 

(n)TxD

 

<reserved>

 

Output: TTL Level RS232 transmits data. Polarity Determined

 

 

 

 

by Pin 1

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Input: TTL level Clear to Send, weak pull up to Vin. Polarity

6

 

(n)CTS

 

D+

 

configurable via software

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bidirectional: USB D+ signal

7

 

 

(n)RTS

 

<reserved>

 

Output: TTL level RS232 Request to Send. Polarity

 

 

 

 

configurable via software

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

8

 

PWRDWN

PWRDWN

 

Output: Open drain, 100K pull up to Vin; active high indicates

 

 

that the IS4920 is in Power Down Mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

9

 

nBEEPER

nBEEPER

 

Output: Open drain, 100K pull up to Vin; active low signal

 

 

capable of sinking current. PWM controlled signal can

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

be used to drive an external beeper.

10

 

nGoodRead

 

nGoodRead

 

Output: Open drain, 100K pull up to Vin; active low signal for

 

 

 

sinking current of a Good Read LED circuit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

11

 

nWAKE

 

nWake

 

Input: Weak pull up to Vin; active low, the signal can be used to

 

 

 

bring the engine out of Power Down (TTL RS232 version

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

only) or Sleep Mode (TTL RS232 and USB versions).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

12

 

 

nTrig

 

nTrig

 

Input: Weak pull up to Vin; active low, the signal can be used as

 

 

 

 

a trigger input to activate the IS4920.
