MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX202CWE RS-232 Transceiver

The MAX202CWE is a low-power RS-232 transceiver designed for serial communication applications. It features integrated charge pump circuitry for generating the necessary voltages for RS-232 signals from a single +5V supply, eliminating the need for a separate power source. Its compact 16-pin Wide SO package saves board space and enhances portability. Capable of operating at data rates up to 20kbps, it ensures reliable signal transmission with guaranteed voltage levels and fast switching times. It includes built-in protection, hysteresis, and robust input thresholds for noise immunity, making it suitable for portable and battery-powered systems.
