The MAX232N by Texas Instruments is an efficient RS 232 transceiver designed to effortlessly bridge microcontrollers and standard serial ports using only a single 5 V supply. Boasting dual drivers and receivers, it simplifies serial communication between TTL/CMOS logic and RS 232 interfaces, making it a cost-effective and compact choice for embedded systems, modems, and battery powered devices. Its full-duplex capability, low power consumption, and durable design make the MAX232N a stalwart in reliable, space-saving serial interface solutions.

Why Buy MAX232N Transceiver?

When your design demands seamless, dependable serial communication, the MAX232N stands out. It offers TTL-to-RS 232 conversion using just one 5 V supply and common 1 µF capacitors—no need for extra power rails. With dual transceivers in a compact 16-pin PDIP package, it supports full-duplex operation at up to 120 kbps. Its low supply current (around 8 mA) and robust ±30 V tolerance, plus solid ESD protection, make it both energy-efficient and rugged—perfect for both hobbyist prototypes and demanding industrial applications.
