Product Summary

The MAX232ESE+T is one member of the the MAX220 to MAX249 family of line drivers/receivers which is intended for all EIA/TIA-232E and V.28/V.24 communications interfaces, particularly applications where ±12V is not available. Its temperature range would be from -40°C to +85°C and its pin-package would be 16 narrow SO. It has five applications. (1) Portable computers. (2) Low power modems. (3) Interface translation. (4) Battery powered RS-232 systems. (5) Multidrop RS-232 networks. That are all the main applications.

Parametrics

Absolute maximum ratings: (1) Its supply voltage (Vcc) would be from -0.3V to +6V. (2) Its V+ would be from (Vcc - 0.3V) to +14V. (3) Its V- would be from +0.3V to +14V. (4) Its input voltages would be from -0.3V to (Vcc - 0.3V). (5) Its output voltages would be ±15V for Tout and would be from -0.3V to (VCC + 0.3V) for Rout. (6) Its driver / receiver output short circuited to GND would be continuous. (7) Its continuous power dissipation (Ta = +70°C) would be 696mW. (8) Its operating temperature range would be -40°C to +85°C. (9) Its storage temperature range would be from -65°C to +160°C. (10) Its lead temperature (soldering, 10s) would be +300°C. It should be noted that stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device.

Features

Features:(1) Its output voltage swing would be min ±5V and max ±8V. (2) Its input logic threshold low would be typ 1.4V and max 0.8V. (3) Its input logic threshold high would be min 2V and typ 1.4V. (4) Its logic pullup / input current would be typ 5uA and max 40uA. (5) Its output leakage current would be typ ±0.01uA and max ±10uA. (6) Its data rate would be typ 200kbps and max 116kbps.
