Port-Powered RS-232 to RS-422 Converter
The 422LP9R is a port-powered two-channel RS-232 to RS-422 converter. It converts TD and RD RS-232 lines to balanced RS-422 signals. The unit is powered from the RS-232 handshake lines DTR and RTS. One of these handshake lines must be asserted (high) in order to power the unit. The RS-422 driver is enabled when RTS is asserted. Therefore, RTS must be asserted in order to transmit data. The RS-422 receiver is always enabled. If DTR is always asserted and the RTS is used to control the driver, the 422LP9R can be used as a RS-232 to RS-485 4- wire converter. To insure reception, it is recommended that DTR is asserted.
