3 Schematic and Layout
The TRS3221RGTEVM has simple connections to all necessary pins of the TRS3221RGT transceiver device,
and jumpers where necessary to provide flexibility for device. The TRS3221RGTEVM provides test points for all
RS-232 (TX1, RX1) and logic (TX2, RX2) communication lines. Additionally test points of GND, VCC, and
charge pump output voltage are available for probing and evaluation.

The female DB9 port (
) provides access to the TRS3221RGT device through a standard RS-232
pinout. The TRS3221RGT female port is DCE to mate with a computer male DTE port. The pin names are
counterintuitive on the DCE side. For example, the RX pin on EVM is connected to a driver and TX connects to a
receiver. The reason pins 4 and 6 are shorted together by a 0 Ω resistor is to loopback the unused handshaking
lines.
