Product details
Frequently asked questions
Is MAX13236EETE+T compatible with 3.3V supply?
Yes. The supply range is 3V to 5.5V, so the part runs directly from a 3.3V rail. RS-232 output levels and receiver thresholds are specified across that range.
What is the maximum data rate of MAX13236EETE+T?
The maximum data rate is 250 kbps. This covers standard UART rates up to 230400 baud — fine for debug consoles, configuration links, and industrial sensor polling. Not suited for 921600 baud or faster RS-232 links.
What is the difference between MAX13236EETE+T and MAX3232?
The MAX3232 family typically supports data rates up to 1 Mbps, while the MAX13236EETE+T is rated at 250 kbps. Both are RS-232 transceivers with 1/1 driver/receiver count and a wide supply range. If your link needs 921600 baud, the MAX3232 is the faster choice; for standard 115200 baud or lower, the MAX13236EETE+T has sufficient margin.
What is MAX13236EETE+T's listed type?
The device type is a Transceiver. It integrates both a line driver and a line receiver for full-duplex RS-232 communication.
What is MAX13236EETE+T's listed duplex?
Full duplex. The part supports simultaneous transmit and receive on separate pins.
