The maximum cable length supported by the ST232ACN is 100 meters (328 feet) at a data rate of 115.2 kbps. However, this length can be affected by factors such as cable quality, noise, and baud rate.
Yes, the ST232ACN is designed to operate in harsh environments, including industrial and automotive applications. It has an operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is resistant to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI).
The ST232ACN has built-in error detection and correction mechanisms, including parity checking, stop-bit checking, and cyclic redundancy checking (CRC). It also supports flow control and can detect and recover from data transmission errors.
Yes, the ST232ACN is compatible with other UART devices that conform to the RS-232 standard. It is also compatible with other STMicroelectronics UART devices, such as the ST232 and ST232B.
The power consumption of the ST232ACN depends on the operating mode and the supply voltage. In normal operation, the power consumption is typically around 10 mA at 5V supply voltage. In low-power mode, the power consumption can be as low as 1 mA.
