MAX202E RS-232 Interface IC – SOIC-16 SMD Package

The MAX202E is a dual driver/receiver IC designed to meet the RS-232 standard for serial communication. It operates from a single 5 V power supply and utilizes a capacitive voltage generator to provide RS-232 voltage levels. The MAX202E is an enhanced version of the popular MAX232, offering improved ESD protection and reduced power consumption. The device is housed in a compact SOIC-16 SMD package, making it ideal for space-constrained applications.
