Introduction to MAX 232 IC |
The MAX 232 device is a dual driver/receiver that includes a capacitive voltage generator to supply EIA-232 voltage levels from a single 5V supply. The voltage level in the RS232 bus is about 30V. Each receiver converts EIA-232 inputs to 5V TTL/CMOS levels. These receivers have a typical threshold of 1.3V and a typical hysteresis of 0.5 V, and can accept ±30V inputs. Each driver converts TTL/CMOS input levels into EIA-232 levels. It is used in battery-powered systems, Terminals, modems, computer and many other applications. Only one of the driver and receiver is utilized here.
