MAX232DR - Multichannel RS232 Transceivers (SOIC-16)

MAX232DR Multichannel RS232 Transceiver (SOIC-16)

The MAX232DR is a multichannel RS232 transceiver. It facilitates EIA/TIA-232E and V.28/V.24 communication. The device operates from a 4.5V to 5.5V supply, suitable for applications without a ±12V supply. It integrates two drivers and two receivers. An ultra-low-power shutdown mode reduces dissipation to less than 5µW. This feature is beneficial for battery-powered systems. The MAX232DR operates without external capacitors, simplifying circuit design. This reduces the bill of materials. It is housed in a compact 16-SOIC package.
