MAXIM INTEGRATED / ANALOG DEVICES MAX3232CAE Serial Interface Transceiver

The MAX3232CAE+ is a low-power, true RS232 transceiver housed in a 16-pin SSOP package. It features a low dropout transmitter output stage, enabling reliable RS232 communication from a supply of 3V to 5.5V using only four 0.1 µF external capacitors. Operating at data rates up to 235 kbps, it maintains standard RS232 levels with compatible pin and package configurations similar to MAX232. It includes two drivers, two receivers, and optimized power consumption of only 0.3mA, suitable for portable, high-speed modem, and peripheral applications like printers and handheld devices within 0°C to 70°C temperature range.
