See Table 19 for a list of the typical RS232-D connector pin assignments.
NOTE
N/C pins are not connected. The shell of the connector should be connected 
through a ferrite bead to ground.
10.2 Example LIN interface
Local Interconnect Network (LIN) is a commonly used low-speed network interface that consists of a 
master node communicating with multiple remote slave nodes. Only a single wire is required for 
communication and is commonly included in the vehicle wiring harness. Figure 28 shows a typical 
interface implemented using the NXP MC33661 LIN transceiver.
