Figure 10. Example of V24/CMOS Serial Link Implementation for 5-wire UART
The designs shown in Figure 8, Figure 9, and Figure 10 are basic designs. Both the DCD and RI can be
left open when not used.
However, a more flexible design to access this serial link with all modem signals is shown below.

Figure 11. Example of Full Modem V24/CMOS Serial Link Implementation for full-UART
There is an internal 10K pull-up resistor on RI and DCD to set it to HIGH level during the reset
state.
The UART interface is a 2.8V type, but is 3V tolerant.
