MAX232N General Description

The MAX232N is a popular integrated circuit used for converting RS-232 voltage levels to TTL voltage levels, and vice versa. It consists of two line drivers, two line receivers, and a dual charge pump. The line drivers convert TTL/CMOS logic levels to RS-232 voltage levels (+/- 5V) for transmission, while the line receivers convert RS-232 voltage levels back to TTL logic levels for reception.The MAX232N operates from a single 5V power supply and can handle data rates of up to 120kbps. It is commonly used in serial communication applications to interface microcontrollers, PCs, and other devices with RS-232 ports. The chip comes in a 16-pin DIP package, making it easy to integrate into a variety of circuits.

Key Features

MAX232N is a dual transmitter/receiver that includes a capacitive voltage converter to allow it to operate from a single 5-V supply

It has a 120-kbps data rate, -40 to 85 degrees Celsius operating temperature range, and can operate with four 0

1-uF charge-pump capacitors

Application

The MAX232N is commonly used in various communication applications for converting RS-232 voltage levels to TTL/CMOS levels, enabling interfacing between different devices such as microcontrollers, computers, and serial devices

It is widely used in embedded systems, industrial automation, networking equipment, and instrumentation
