Product details

Active RS-232 link with 235 Kbps throughput

The MAX3221CAE+ from Analog Devices is an active-production RS-232 transceiver delivering full-duplex communication at 235 Kbps over a single driver/receiver pair. A 300 mV receiver hysteresis filters line noise on longer cable runs, reducing the bit-error rate without external conditioning.

16-SSOP surface-mount footprint

Supplied in tube packaging; the surface-mount body suits reflow assembly with typical lead-free profiles.

Compliance and BOM fit

For a BOM requiring a single-channel RS-232 interface at 235 Kbps, the 3V–5.5V supply range and 16-SSOP footprint match existing serial port designs without a board spin.

Frequently asked questions

What is the data rate and duplex mode of the MAX3221CAE+?

It supports full-duplex RS-232 communication at 235 Kbps with one driver and one receiver.
