Maxim Integrated MAX232CPE+ Interface IC transceiver Tube

Maxim Integrated MAX232CPE+ is a dual line driver and receiver interface IC designed to provide the necessary signal conversion between TTL/CMOS logic levels and RS-232 standards. The MAX232CPE+ operates from a single 5V supply and typically incorporates two charge pump voltage converters, enabling RS-232 levels without requiring dual supply voltages. This transceiver is renowned for facilitating reliable serial communication in applications such as personal computers, low-power modems, and peripheral interfaces where stable data transmission is critical. Its integration into systems simplifies designs by reducing the need for additional external components while maintaining compliance with EIA/TIA-232 standards. Suitable for temperatures typically ranging from 0°C to 70°C, the MAX232CPE+ is ideal for use in controlled environments where dependable performance is a priority.
