MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX218EAP RS-232 Transceiver
The MAX218EAP+ is a low-voltage, true RS232 dual transceiver integrated in a 20-pin SSOP package. Designed for battery-powered applications, it operates within a voltage range of 1.8V to 4.25V, making it suitable for portable devices and systems requiring two drivers and two receivers with minimal power consumption. This transceiver supports standard RS232 and EIA/TIA-562 voltage levels, and can be powered from two alkaline, NiCd, or NiMH cells without a voltage regulator. It features a shutdown mode reducing current consumption to 1 microamp, with options to activate or disable the receivers via logic control. Data communication speeds up to 120 Kbps, and it includes three-state drivers on all receiver outputs, enabling multiple receivers of different standards to be connected at the UART. Additional features include an operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C, onboard DC-DC converters, and a supply current of 1.9mA. The device is suitable for communications, networking, and portable device applications.
