MAX202EUE+

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX202EUE+ is a dual driver, dual receiver RS-232 transceiver designed for single +5V supply operation. It integrates charge-pump circuitry to generate ±10V internal voltages using four external 0.1µF capacitors. The device supports data rates up to 120kbps and operates within a voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V. It features an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and utilizes a 16-pin TSSOP package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump eliminates the need for bipolar supplies
• TTL/CMOS compatible inputs with guaranteed noise margins
• Low power shutdown mode reduces supply current significantly

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Battery-powered equipment
• Handheld devices
• Portable diagnostics equipment

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'UE' against official documentation to confirm the TSSOP package type and lead-free status. Ensure the component matches the -40°C to +85°C industrial temperature grade designated by the 'E' suffix. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any pinout or electrical characteristic updates.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when space constraints favor a TSSOP package over standard SOIC or DIP formats. It is suitable for applications requiring full-duplex communication at speeds up to 120kbps without external voltage generation components. Consider the 0.1µF capacitor requirement for the charge pump during PCB layout.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX200-MAX209 family of +5V RS-232 transceivers. Unlike variants such as the MAX203 or MAX205 which integrate internal capacitors, the MAX202 requires four external 0.1µF capacitors for its charge pump operation. It shares functional similarities with the MAX202CSE+ but differs in package style.
