MAX3232 IC is extensively used for serial communication in between Microcontroller and a computer for changing the TTL/CMOS logic levels to RS232. So, if we want to interface any microcontroller with the Computer, first we have to convert the logic of TTL/CMOS to RS232.
Alternate names of this IC are; RS232 to TTL Converter IC, MAX3232IDBRE4, AX3232CAE, MAX232CSE, MAX3232 SMD IC, MAX3232 IC, Surface Mount Device RS-232 Transceivers IC, SMD IC, RS-232 Transceivers SMD & SMD IC. This article discusses an overview of a MAX3232 IC, pin configuration, specifications, and its applications.
What is MAX3232 IC?
MAX3232 IC is a converter IC, used to convert RD232 to TTL. This IC includes line drivers-2, line receivers-2 & a circuit for dual charge-pump including ESD protection from terminal to terminal with 15 kV. The requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F can be attained by this IC to provide an interface in between the serial-port connector & an asynchronous communication controller.
