MAX232EWE+T

The MAX232EWE+T is one member of the MAX232 family which is designed as the +5V-powered, multichannel RS-232 drivers / receiver that can be used in wide range of applications such as (1)portable computers; (2)low-power modems; (3)interface translation; (4)battery-powered RS-232 systems; (5)multidrop RS-232 networks. Also this device is especially useful in battery-powered systems, since their low-power shutdown mode reduces power dissipation to less than 5W.

The absolute maximum ratings of the MAX232EWE+T can be summarized as:(1)Supply Voltage (VCC): -0.3 V to +6 V;(2)V+: (Vcc-0.3 V) to +14 V;(3)V-: +0.3 V to +14 V;(4)Lead Temperature (soldering, 10 sec): +300°C;(5)Storage Temperature Range: -65°C to +150°C;(6)Operating Temperature Range: 0°C to +70°C;(7)Driver/Receiver Output Short Circuited to GND: Continuous.

The electrical characteristics of MAX232EWE+T can be summarized as:(1)Output Voltage Swing: ±5 to ±8 V;(2)Input Logic Threshold Low: 1.4 to 0.8 V;(3)Input Logic Threshold High: 2 to 1.4 V;(4)Data Rate: 200 to 116 kbps;(5)Output Short-Circuit Current: ±7 to ±22 mA.
