DTR Current
Or Auxiliary Supply Current
(Positive supply to unit) See below * 2.7 mA minimum required
under all operating conditions
with cable capacitance limited
to 1000pF (and practically
unlimited inrush current)
Power On 12 mA Max (and practically
unlimited inrush current) See above.
Transmitting 11 mA typical, 5 ms duration See above.
Quiescent 6 mA typical, continuous See above.
RXD Current Within RS-232 specified limits
(does not function as a
negative supply to unit) Average current approximates
that of a normal RS-232 load.
(Negative supply to unit)
