MAX3232EIPWR

Description
The MAX3232EIPWRQ1 is a Multichannel RS-232 Line Driver/Receiver with ±15kV ESD protection. This driver/receiver consists of two line drivers, two line receivers and a dual charge-pump circuit with ±15kV IEC ESD protection pin to pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND).
The device meets the requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F and provides the electrical interface between an asynchronous communication controller and the serial-port connector.
The charge pump and four small external capacitors allow operation from a single 3 to 5.5V supply.
The device operates at data signalling rates up to 250kbps and a maximum of 30V/µs driver output slew rate.
