MAX202CSE+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX202CSE+T is a dual driver and receiver RS-232 transceiver designed for single +5V supply operation. It features integrated charge pump circuitry that generates ±10V internal supplies using four external 0.1µF capacitors, eliminating the need for bipolar power rails. The device provides two drivers and two receivers with TTL/CMOS compatible inputs. It supports data rates up to 120kbps and operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. The component is housed in a 16-pin Narrow SOIC package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump eliminates requirement for external bipolar voltage sources
• Single +5V power supply compatibility reduces system complexity
• TTL and CMOS logic input thresholds ensure broad interface compatibility

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• EIA/TIA-232E communication interfaces
• V.28 and V.24 asynchronous serial links
• Battery-powered portable equipment requiring low component count

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix matches the required temperature grade and packaging format. Confirm the presence of the lead-free designation and RoHS compliance status. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documentation for the specific manufacturing lot code to guarantee authenticity and storage history integrity.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact solution for standard RS-232 signaling is required without external high-voltage generation circuits. It is suitable for designs constrained by board space or limited to a single +5V rail. Verify that the load capacitance and resistance requirements align with the specified maximum data rate limits for reliable signal integrity.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX200-MAX209 family of +5V RS-232 transceivers. The 'C' suffix indicates the commercial temperature range, while 'SE' denotes the 16-pin narrow small-outline package. The '+T' suffix typically signifies tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly processes.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible alternatives within the same family include MAX202ESE+T for extended temperature ranges. Other variants like MAX203 or MAX205 offer integrated capacitors but differ in pin configurations.
