MAX3221 - 3-V to 5.5-V RS-232 Line Driver/Receiver

General Description

The MAX3221 device consists of one line driver, one line receiver with dedicated enable pin, and a dual charge-pump circuit with ±15-kV ESD protection pin to pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND).

Key Features

  • RS-232 Bus-pin ESD protection exceeds ±15 kV using human body model (HBM).
  • Meets or exceeds the requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F and ITU V.28 standards.
  • Operates with 3-V to 5.5-V VCC supply.
  • Operates up to 250 kbps.
  • One driver and one receiver.
  • Low standby current: 1 μA typical.
  • External capacitors: 4 × 0.1 μF.
  • Accepts 5-V logic input with 3.3-V supply.
  • Alternative high-speed pin-compatible device (1 Mbps).
