1 Mbps full-duplex RS232 on a 3V to 5.5V rail
The MAX3225EEAP+T is an RS232 transceiver delivering 1 Mbps data rate in full-duplex mode with two drivers and two receivers (2/2).
Receiver hysteresis and cable-length margin
500 mV receiver hysteresis filters noise on longer RS232 cable runs — the threshold won't dither on coupled interference from adjacent signals or motor drives in the same cabinet.
20-SSOP package and board-fit note
Housed in a 20-SSOP with 0.209-inch (5.30 mm) body width, the footprint matches standard SSOP-20 land patterns. The surface-mount package suits reflow assembly; the tape-and-reel suffix T indicates reel quantity for production runs.
