MAX202ECUE+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX202ECUE+T is a full-duplex RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features two drivers and two receivers operating within a supply voltage range of +4.5V to +5.5V. The device supports data rates up to 120kbps with a typical receiver propagation delay of 10µs. It provides ±15kV ESD protection via the Human Body Model and operates across an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C. The component utilizes a 16-pin TSSOP surface-mount package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump circuitry enables single +5V supply operation without requiring external bipolar power sources.
• High electrostatic discharge protection rated at ±15kV (HBM) on RS-32 inputs and outputs for harsh environment reliability.
• Receiver inputs feature guaranteed hysteresis to ensure clean output transitions despite slow rise/fall times or noise.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Battery-powered equipment requiring low power consumption
• Hand-held diagnostic tools
• Portable instrumentation systems

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C' indicates the commercial temperature range and 'UE' denotes the TSSOP package configuration. Confirm the 'T' suffix corresponds to tape-and-reel packaging requirements. Cross-reference the manufacturer's official part numbering system to ensure compatibility with existing design specifications before procurement.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring robust ESD protection and single-supply operation. Ensure the application does not exceed the 120kbps data rate limit under maximum capacitive loading conditions. Verify that the 16-pin TSSOP footprint aligns with the PCB layout constraints and thermal management requirements for the target operating environment.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This device belongs to the MAX202E-MAX213E family of RS-232 transceivers. It shares architectural similarities with the MAX232E but offers enhanced ESD capabilities characteristic of the Maxim Integrated 'E' series. The MAX202ECUE+T represents the commercial grade variant optimized for standard industrial applications.
