Product Summary

The max3221cdbr is a line driver. 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-V to 5.5-V supply. The max3221cdbr operates at data signaling rates up to 250 kbit/s and a maximum of 30V/µs driver output slew rate.
