MAX207CNG

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX207CNG is a +5V RS-232 transceiver from the MAX200-MAX209 family, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features five drivers and three receivers in a 24-pin narrow Plastic DIP package. The device operates at data rates exceeding 120kbps with integrated charge pump circuitry requiring four external 0.1µF capacitors. It functions within a supply voltage range of +4.75V to +5.25V and supports an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump eliminates the need for bipolar ±12V supplies
• Single +5V or 9V to +12V supply operation capability
• TTL/CMOS input logic compatibility

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

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

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CNG' against official manufacturer documentation to confirm the exact package type (narrow Plastic DIP) and commercial temperature rating. Ensure that the required four external 0.1µF capacitors are included in the design, as this component does not integrate them internally unlike other members of the MAX20x series.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select the MAX207CNG when a configuration of five drivers and three receivers is required in a 24-pin DIP format. This part is suitable for designs needing single-supply operation without external negative voltage generation. Verify that the application environment remains within the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range specified for the 'C' grade.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

The MAX207 belongs to the MAX200-MAX209/MAX211/MAX213 family of RS-232 transceivers. These devices share common internal architecture including dual charge pumps for voltage conversion. The MAX207 specifically provides a higher driver count compared to the MAX202, making it distinct within the lineup for multi-channel serial communication needs.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers FAQ

Does the MAX207CNG include internal capacitors?

No, the MAX207 requires four external 0.1µF capacitors for its charge pump circuitry. Models like the MAX203 and MAX205 integrate these capacitors internally.

What is the maximum data rate supported?

The MAX207 supports data rates in excess of 120kbps when loaded in accordance with EIA/TIA-232E specifications.
