MAX232N Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX232N is an integrated circuit designed for RS-232 communication interfaces. It features two drivers and two receivers, converting TTL/CMOS logic levels to RS-232 voltage levels. It operates from a single 5V power supply and includes a capacitive voltage generator to generate the necessary RS-232 voltage levels. The device supports data rates up to 120 kbps and provides robust ESD protection exceeding 2000V HBM. Its package options include PDIP (16 pins), suitable for through-hole mounting, with a typical operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C. This component is used in serial communication applications, including computers, modems, and industrial equipment, where reliable voltage level translation is required.
