MAX232D Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX232D from Texas Instruments is a dual driver/receiver IC designed for RS-232 communication. It operates from a single 5V power supply, utilizing charge-pump capacitors to generate the necessary TIA/EIA-232-F voltage levels. This transceiver supports a data rate of up to 120Kbps and features two drivers and two receivers.

 

Key electrical specifications include a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V, typical supply current of 8mA, and receiver hysteresis of 500mV. The device accepts ±30V inputs and provides ±9V output levels. ESD protection exceeds 2000V Human-body model.

 

The MAX232D is housed in a 16-SOIC package and is designed for surface mount applications. It operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C. Note that this part is obsolete and no longer in production; consider the MAX232DR as a potential replacement.
