Drivers

RS-232dual transceiver3 V to 5.5 VTSSOP-20auto-powerdownESD protection

MAX3223ECPWR is a 20-pin TSSOP dual RS-232 transceiver for 3 V to 5.5 V systems, with integrated charge pumps, up to 500 kbit/s signaling, and auto-powerdown support.

Best for

  • Dual-channel RS-232 ports in 3.3 V or 5 V systems
  • Portable equipment needing low standby current
  • Designs requiring RS-232-side ESD protection

Avoid if

  • More than two driver or two receiver channels are required
  • Data rates above 500 kbit/s are required
  • Ambient temperature can exceed 70°C

Check before use

  • Verify external charge-pump capacitor values for the actual VCC.
  • Verify FORCEON, FORCEOFF, EN, and INVALID behavior in the system power-state design.
  • Verify footprint dimensions for the PW TSSOP-20 package.
