MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX218CWP RS-232 Transceiver
The MAX218CWP+ is a true RS232 dual transceiver designed for battery-powered applications, operating within a voltage range of 1.8V to 4.25V. It comes in a 20-pin WSOIC package and supports EIA/TIA-232E and V.28/V.24 communication interfaces. This transceiver features two drivers and two receivers with low power consumption, making it suitable for portable devices. It maintains proper RS232 and EIA/TIA-562 voltage levels and can operate from two alkaline, NiCd, or NiMH cells without a voltage regulator. The device includes a shutdown mode that reduces current to 1μA, with configurable receiver activity for system monitoring. It supports data rates up to 120 kbps and includes three-state drivers on all receiver outputs to facilitate wire-OR connections of multiple interfaces. Additional features include an operating temperature range from 0°C to 70°C, onboard DC-DC converters, and a typical supply current of 1.9mA. Applications include communications, networking, and portable devices.
