A20352S - MAX3221EEAE SMD 1A 3.0-5.5V RS-232 Transceiver (Maxim)

The MAX3221EEAE is a 3V-powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communications interface with automatic shutdown/wakeup features, high datarate capabilities, and enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection. All transmitter outputs and receiver inputs are protected to ?15kV using IEC 1000-4-2 Air- Gap Discharge, to ?8kV using IEC 1000-4-2 Contact Discharge, and to ?15kV using the Human Body Model. The MAX3221EEAE achieve a 1?A supply current with Maxim?s revolutionary AutoShutdown? feature. They save power without changes to the existing BIOS or operating system by entering low-power shutdown mode when the RS-232 cable is disconnected, or when the transmitters of the connected peripherals are off.
The transceivers have a proprietary low-dropout transmitter output stage, delivering true RS-232 performance from a +3.0V to +5.5V supply with a dual charge pump. The charge pump requires only four small 0.1?F capacitors for operation from a +3.3V supply. Each device is guaranteed to run at data rates of 250kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels. The MAX3221EEAE contains just one driver and one receiver, making it the smallest single-supply RS-232 transceiver.
