Product Summary

The MAX232CPE+ is a line driver/receiver intended for all EIA/TIA-232E and V.28/V.24 communications interfaces, particularly applications where -12V is not available. The MAX232CPE+ is especially useful in battery-powered systems, since their low-power shutdown mode reduces power dissipation to less than 5W. The applications of the device include Portable Computers, Low-Power Modems, Interface Translation, Battery-Powered RS-232 Systems and Multidrop RS-232 Networks.

Parametrics

MAX232CPE+ absolute maximum ratings: (1)Output Voltage Swing, when the operation condition is All transmitter outputs loaded with 3kV to GND: -5 to +8V; (2)Input Logic Threshold Low, All devices except MAX220: 1.4 to 0.8V; (3)Logic Pullup/lnput Current, when the operation condition is SHDN = 0V, MAX222/MAX242, shutdown, MAX220: -1μA(the tye is _0.01); (4)Output Leakage Current, when the operation condition is VCC = 5.5V, SHDN = 0V, VOUT = -15V, MAX222/MAX242: +10μA(the tye is -0.01); (5)Transmitter Output Resistance, when the operation condition is VCC = V+ = V- = 0V, VOUT = -2V: 300V; (6)Output Short-Circuit Current, when the operation condition is VOUT = 0V: the min valve is -7 mA.

Features

MAX232CPE+ features: (1)Low-power shutdown; (2)MAX241 and receivers active in shutdown; (3)Available in SO; (4)5 drivers with shutdown; (5)Standard +5/+12V or battery supplies; (6)same functions as MAX232; (7)Industry standard; (8)Higher slew rate, small caps; (9)No external caps; (10)No external caps, high slew rate.
