MAX3232
The transceiver integrates two drivers and two receivers for RS-232 serial links from a 3.0 V to 5.5 V single supply. It uses a capacitor charge pump with four 0.1 µF external capacitors and supports guaranteed data rates to 120 kbit/s. Receiver inputs tolerate ±25 V and transmitter outputs deliver RS-232 levels with at least ±5 V swing into standard loads. Multiple 16-pin package options exist for commercial and extended temperature suffixes.
