MAX204CWE+ is listed in the Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. Its product description is IC TRANSCEIVER 4/0 16SOIC. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The MAX204CWE+ is a +5V-powered RS-232 transceiver featuring four drivers and no receivers, designed for single-supply operation. It utilizes an integrated charge pump to generate ±10V from a +5V input, eliminating the need for external bipolar supplies. The device requires four 0.1µF external capacitors for voltage conversion. It supports data rates exceeding 120kbps while maintaining EIA/TIA-232E output levels. The component operates within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C and is housed in a 16-pin Wide SO package.
Verify the specific suffix 'W' corresponds to the Wide SO-16 package configuration required by the design. Confirm that the '+' designation indicates compliance with current environmental standards. Ensure the operating temperature grade matches the application requirements, as other variants exist for extended ranges.
Select this part when four transmit channels are needed but receive functionality is unnecessary. Verify that the system can accommodate the four required 0.1µF external capacitors. Consider alternative models if shutdown modes or receiver outputs are required for the specific interface topology.
This component belongs to the MAX200–MAX209 family of +5V RS-232 transceivers. It shares the same core charge pump architecture and pinout compatibility regarding power connections as other members like the MAX202 and MAX206, differing primarily in the number of driver and receiver channels provided.
Public confirmed substitute part numbers: MAX204CSE+, MAX204CPP+
