The maximum cable length supported by the ST232CDR 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 data rate.
Yes, the ST232CDR is designed to operate in harsh environments, including industrial and automotive applications. It has a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and is resistant to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI).
The ST232CDR has built-in error detection and correction mechanisms, including parity checking, stop-bit error detection, and framing error detection. It also supports flow control and XON/XOFF protocol for error-free data transmission.
Yes, the ST232CDR is compatible with other UART devices that comply with the RS-232 standard. It is also compatible with other STMicroelectronics UART devices, such as the ST232CBR and ST232CTR.
The power consumption of the ST232CDR depends on the operating mode and data rate. In normal operating mode, the typical power consumption is around 10 mA at 3.3 V supply voltage. In low-power mode, the power consumption is reduced to around 1 mA.
