MAX3238EIPWR Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The Texas Instruments MAX3238EIPWR is a versatile RS-232 transceiver designed for reliable serial communication. It operates over a wide supply voltage range of 3V to 5.5V, making it suitable for various applications. This device integrates five drivers and three receivers, providing comprehensive interface capabilities.

 

Key electrical characteristics include a maximum data rate of 400kbps and ±15kV ESD protection on the RS-232 bus pins, exceeding the Human-Body Model (HBM) requirements. The transceiver also meets or exceeds TIA/EIA-232-F and ITU v.28 standards. A low standby current of 1µA is achieved with the Auto-Powerdown Plus feature, enabling flexible power-down modes.

 

Packaged in a 28-TSSOP, the MAX3238EIPWR is designed for surface mount applications. Its operating temperature range is from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring performance in demanding environments. The compact package dimensions (4.4mm width, 9.7mm length, 1mm thickness, 0.65mm pitch) facilitate integration into space-constrained designs.
