Product details

RS-232 transceiver in a 20-pin DIP — what you get

The Maxim Integrated MAX233CPP+G36 is a full-duplex RS-232 transceiver with two drivers and two receivers in a through-hole 20-pin PDIP. It handles 120 kbps data rate and operates from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply. The receiver hysteresis of 500 mV gives clean edge detection on noisy lines.

Supply rail and temperature — fit check

This part operates from a 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply. Temperature grade is commercial 0°C to 70°C.

Package and mounting

Through-hole 20-pin DIP (0.300" body width, 7.62 mm pitch) — a legacy footprint that still appears on many industrial controller boards and retrofit designs. The PDIP package is socket-friendly and hand-solderable, which keeps field-service swaps straightforward.

Lifecycle and compliance

The ROHS3 status covers EU and other regulated markets without exemption paperwork.

Frequently asked questions

Is MAX233CPP+G36 RoHS compliant?

Yes, it is ROHS3 compliant.

What is the difference between MAX233 and MAX232?

Both are 2/2 RS-232 transceivers from Maxim, but the MAX233 integrates the charge-pump capacitors internally, saving two external capacitors on the PCB. The MAX232 requires four external 1 µF capacitors. If your design already has the external caps, the MAX232 is a cost-down alternative; if board space is tight, the MAX233 eliminates those components.
