MAX232ECD Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX232ECD from Texas Instruments is a versatile dual channel RS-232 transceiver. It operates from a single 5V power supply, utilizing charge-pump capacitors to generate the necessary RS-232 voltage levels. This device supports a data rate of up to 250kbps and features two drivers and two receivers.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a logic voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and a typical output voltage of ±9V. The transceiver provides robust protection with ±15kV Human-Body Model (HBM) ESD protection and ±8kV IEC61000-4-2 contact discharge protection. It also offers ±15kV IEC61000-4-2 air-gap discharge protection.

 

Packaged in a 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface-mount form factor, the MAX232ECD is suitable for various applications requiring serial communication interfaces. Its operating temperature range is from 0°C to 70°C, and it meets or exceeds TIA/RS-232-F and ITU recommendation V.28 standards. The device also boasts low supply current consumption of 8mA typical.
