MAX207EEWG+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX207EEWG+T is a full-duplex RS-232 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features five drivers and three receivers, operating at data rates up to 120kbps. The device requires four external 0.1μF capacitors for its integrated charge pump circuitry, enabling single +5V supply operation (4.75V to 5.25V). It provides ±15kV ESD protection via the Human Body Model and meets EIA/TIA-232E specifications. The component operates within an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a 24-pin SSOP package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump eliminates the need for bipolar ±12V supplies
• High electrostatic discharge protection on RS-232 inputs and outputs
• Full compliance with EIA/TIA-232E and V.28 communication standards

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Battery-powered equipment requiring single-supply operation
• Hand-held diagnostic tools
• Portable instrumentation systems

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EWG' corresponds to the 24-pin SSOP package and extended industrial temperature range (-40°C to +85°C) as defined in the official datasheet. Confirm RoHS compliance status through manufacturer documentation before integration into production designs.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component 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 voltage conversion circuitry. Verify that the system power supply remains stable between 4.75V and 5.25V to maintain signal integrity.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX202E–MAX213E family of ±15kV ESD-protected, 5V RS-232 transceivers. It shares architectural similarities with other devices in the series but is distinct due to its specific 5-driver/3-receiver configuration and lack of shutdown control pins found in other variants like the MAX206E or MAX211E.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX207ECWG+ is a compatible alternative offering identical electrical characteristics and pinout but restricted to the commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Substitution requires verification that the application environment does not exceed these thermal limits.
