MAX232EIN Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX232EIN from Texas Instruments is a versatile dual RS-232 transceiver IC, suitable for various serial communication applications. It operates from a single 5V power supply, utilizing internal charge-pump capacitors to generate the necessary RS-232 voltage levels. This device meets or exceeds TIA/RS-232-F and ITU recommendation V.28 standards.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a data rate of up to 250kbps and a low supply current of 8mA typical. It features two drivers and two receivers, with receivers capable of converting RS-232 inputs to 5V TTL/CMOS levels. The device offers robust protection with +/-15kV ESD protection on the RS-232 bus pins, including Human-Body Model (HBM) and IEC61000-4-2 contact and air-gap discharge specifications.

 

Packaged in a standard 16-DIP through-hole configuration, the MAX232EIN is designed for easy integration into existing circuit boards. Its operating temperature range spans from -40°C to 85°C, making it suitable for a wide array of environmental conditions. The device is also noted for its receiver hysteresis of 500mV, aiding in signal integrity.
