MAX200CWP

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX200CWP is a +5V-powered RS-232 transceiver featuring five drivers and no receivers. It utilizes an integrated charge pump to generate ±10V from a single supply, requiring four external 0.1µF capacitors. The device supports data rates exceeding 120kbps and includes TTL/CMOS-compatible inputs with internal pullup resistors. It operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and is housed in a 20-pin Wide SO package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrates dual charge-pump voltage converters for single-supply operation without bipolar power requirements
• Provides five driver outputs with internal pullup resistors to ensure low output states when inputs are unconnected
• Supports full-duplex communication with guaranteed EIA/TIA-232E signal levels under worst-case loading conditions

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Battery-powered equipment requiring single-supply interface conversion
• Handheld devices with limited circuit board space
• Portable diagnostics equipment

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official documentation to confirm the package type and temperature rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer datasheets or authorized distributors before procurement. Ensure component authenticity by sourcing from verified channels.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when five transmitter channels are required without receiver functionality. Verify that the application does not require shutdown mode control, as the MAX200 lacks dedicated enable or shutdown pins. Ensure the design accommodates four external capacitors for the charge pump circuitry.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX200-MAX209/MAX211/MAX213 family of RS-232 transceivers. These devices share common architecture including integrated charge pumps and CMOS/TTL input compatibility. Variations within the family differ primarily in the number of drivers, receivers, and available control features like shutdown modes.
