MAX207ECWG+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX207ECWG+T is a single-supply RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features five drivers and three receivers, supporting full-duplex communication at data rates up to 120 kbps. The device operates on a single +5V supply (4.75V to 5.25V) with an integrated charge pump requiring four external 0.1μF capacitors. It provides ±15kV ESD protection via the Human Body Model and meets EIA/TIA-232E specifications. The component is housed in a 24-pin SOIC package and functions within an operating temperature range of 0°C to +70°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump circuitry enables single +5V supply operation without bipolar voltage requirements.
• High electrostatic discharge protection rated at ±15kV for robust performance in harsh environments.
• RS-232 driver outputs guarantee compliance with EIA/TIA-232E and V.28 signal level standards.

• Battery-powered equipment
• Hand-held devices
• Portable diagnostics equipment

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'CWG+T' against official documentation to confirm the tape-and-reel packaging format and lead-free status. Confirm that the 'C' designation aligns with the required commercial temperature range for the target application environment.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this part when five transmit channels and three receive channels are required in a compact surface-mount footprint. Ensure the design accommodates four external 0.1μF capacitors for the internal charge pump. Verify that the 120 kbps maximum data rate satisfies the system's communication speed requirements.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX202E–MAX213E family of RS-232 transceivers. It shares architectural similarities with other members like the MAX206E and MAX208E but is distinguished by its specific count of five drivers and three receivers.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers FAQ

Does the MAX207ECWG+T include a shutdown mode?

No, the MAX207E does not feature a shutdown control pin or low-power shutdown mode; it lacks enable and shutdown functionality found in other family members.

What type of capacitors are required for the charge pump?

The device requires four external 0.1μF capacitors connected to the charge pump terminals. Ceramic dielectrics are suggested for these components.

How does the receiver input threshold compare to standard RS-232 specifications?

The guaranteed receiver input thresholds are tighter than the EIA/TIA-232E specification, allowing the inputs to respond to both TTL/CMOS logic levels and standard RS-232 levels.
