MAX232x Dual EIA-232 Drivers/Receivers
1 Features 3 Description
The MAX232 device is a dual driver/receiver that
1
• Meets or Exceeds TIA/EIA-232-F and ITU
includes a capacitive voltage generator to supply
Recommendation V.28
TIA/EIA-232-F voltage levels from a single 5-V
• Operates From a Single 5-V Power Supply With
supply. Each receiver converts TIA/EIA-232-F inputs
1.0-µF Charge-Pump Capacitors
to 5-V TTL/CMOS levels. These receivers have a
typical threshold of 1.3 V, a typical hysteresis of 0.5
• Operates up to 120 kbit/s
V, and can accept ±30-V inputs. Each driver converts
• Two Drivers and Two Receivers
TTL/CMOS input levels into TIA/EIA-232-F levels.
• ±30-V Input Levels
• Low Supply Current: 8 mA Typical
