MAX234CWE Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The MAX234CWE is a multichannel RS232 transceiver IC manufactured by Maxim Integrated, suitable for EIA/TIA-232E and V.28/V.24 communication interfaces. This device is designed for applications where a bipolar ±12V supply is not available, enabling single supply operation from a +5V source.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V and a data rate of up to 120Kbps. The MAX234CWE features 4 drivers and 0 receivers, making it ideal for specific interface translation needs. It operates within a temperature range of 0°C to 70°C.

 

Packaged in a 16-SOIC (0.295", 7.50mm Width) format, the MAX234CWE is designed for surface mount applications. Its compact size and surface mount capability make it suitable for integration into various electronic designs where space is a consideration.

 

This transceiver is commonly used in applications such as interface translation and multidrop RS-232 networks. Its design focuses on providing reliable communication in systems requiring RS232 compatibility.
