MAX3232EWE Overview
Logical driver uses a neat SOIC package. 16 terminations with different functions. Buffer IC reuqires a supply voltage of 5V. 16 pins are set with the electric part. Buffer IC is suitable for Surface Mount applications. Logical driver has 16 pins. Specifically, digital transciever is a kind of Line Driver or Receivers. To run the part safely and stably in a circuit, 5V recommends users apply 5V on the logical driver. Logical driver features EXTERNAL CHARGE PUMP to better serve the need. Voltage buffer is capable of operating under temperature as low as -40°C. Digital buffer should operate with ambient temperature no higher than 85°C. Voltage used to run voltage buffer should be 3V at least. In regard to the maximum supply voltage, buffer driver is rated 5.5V. This buffer driver has 2 bits capability. Speaking of receivers, this voltage buffer has 2, which is reasonable for its cost. Bus transceiver operates on 1mA.
