MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX3222CAP RS-232 Transceiver

The MAX3222 transceiver from Maxim Integrated offers a compact, low-power RS-232 solution operable from 3.0V to 5.5V, supporting data rates up to 120kbps guaranteed. It features a proprietary low-dropout transmitter output stage, requiring only four 0.1uF external charge pump capacitors to generate the necessary RS-232 voltage levels. Its internal dual charge pump provides a regulated ±5.5V output, enabling robust communication with PC serial ports, high-speed modems, and portable devices. The device includes a shutdown mode for power savings and ensures high data integrity with low output impedance and excellent slew rates, suitable for demanding serial applications and systems where space and power are limited.
