The MAX3241CAI+ is a low power true RS232 transceiver in 28 pin SSOP package. This transceiver has low dropout transmitter output stage enabling true RS232 performance from 3V to 5.5V supply with dual charge pump. The device requires only four small 0.1μF external charge pump capacitors. The MAX3241 device operates at data rate of 235Kbps and maintains RS232 output levels. This complete serial port device designed for notebook and subnotebook computers. It has shutdown mode in which all receivers can remain active while using only 1μA supply current. The receivers R1 and R2 have extra outputs in addition to their standard outputs for monitoring external devices.
Supply voltage range from 3V to 5.5V
Operating temperature range from 0°C to 70°C
VCC power supply current of 0.3mA
Transmitter skew of 300ns and receiver skew of 300ns
Maximum transition region slew rate is 30V/μs (CL = 150pF to 1000pF)
