MAX211CWI+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX211CWI+T is a +5V RS-232 transceiver featuring integrated charge pump circuitry for single-supply operation. It provides four drivers and five receivers in a 28-pin wide SOIC package. The device supports data rates exceeding 120kbps while maintaining ±5V EIA/TIA-232E output levels. It operates within a commercial temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Key electrical parameters include a typical supply current of 15mA, shutdown current of 1µA, and input hysteresis of 0.5V.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated charge pump eliminates the need for external bipolar supplies
• Low-power shutdown mode reduces supply current to 1µA
• TTL/CMOS compatible inputs with internal pullup resistors
• Receiver outputs enter high-impedance state via enable control

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Battery-powered equipment requiring low power consumption
• Handheld devices with limited board space
• Portable diagnostics equipment

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the ordering suffix matches the required package and temperature grade. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation before procurement. Ensure component authenticity by sourcing from authorized distributors only.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this part when four drivers and five receivers are required in a single IC. Verify that the 28-pin wide SOIC package fits the PCB layout constraints. Check if the commercial temperature range meets the application requirements.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX200-MAX209/MAX211/MAX213 family of +5V RS-232 transceivers. It shares core architecture with other members but differs in driver/receiver count and package options. The family is designed for applications needing compact RS-232 interfaces without external voltage converters.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

MAX211EEWI+ offers similar functionality in an SSOP package. MAX211ECWI+ provides the same electrical characteristics in a wide SOIC package. Verify pin compatibility and thermal performance when substituting.
