MAX33250EELC+, RS-232 Interface IC 600V Isolated 2Tx/2Rx and 1Tx/1Rx RS-232 Transceiver with 15kV ESD and Integrated Capacitors

Semiconductors\Interface ICs\RS-232 Interface ICMAX3325xE Isolated 2Tx/2Rx RS-232 Transceivers Maxim Integrated MAX3325xE Isolated 2Tx/2Rx RS-232 Transceivers are used in diagnostics equipment, point-of-sale systems, industrial/GPS/medical equipment, and communication systems. These isolated RS-232 transceivers have an integrated charge pump and an inverter to eliminate the need for a high positive and negative voltage supply. The MAX3325xE transceivers feature galvanic isolation of 600V RMS between the logic UART side and field side. The isolation barrier protects the logic UART side from electrical transient strikes from the field side. The barrier also breaks ground loops and large differences in ground potentials between the two sides that can potentially corrupt the receiving and sending of data. The MAX3325xE transceivers conform to the EIA/TIA232E standard and operate at data rates up to 1Mbps.
