MAX3221EUE+T

Analog Devices Inc Maxim Integrated · RS232 ICs · TSSOP-16

MAX3221EUE+T from Analog Devices Inc Maxim Integrated, in a TSSOP-16. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 EN input Receiver enable control: drive low for normal operation and drive high to force the receiver outputs into a high-impedance state.
2 C1+ passive Positive terminal of the voltage doubler charge-pump capacitor (C1, 0.1µF for 3.3V operation).
3 V+ power_out +5.5V supply generated by the charge pump, which requires a reservoir capacitor (C3) and is regulated over the +3.0V to +5.5V VCC range.
4 C1- passive Negative terminal of the voltage doubler charge-pump capacitor (C1).
5 C2+ passive Positive terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor (C2).
6 C2- passive Negative terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor (C2).
7 V- power_out -5.5V supply generated by the inverting charge pump, which requires a reservoir capacitor (C4).
8 R1IN input RS-232 receiver input with an input voltage range of -25V to +25V and a typical input resistance of 5kΩ.
9 R1OUT output TTL/CMOS receiver output; the receiver is an inverting three-state output that goes high-impedance when EN is driven high.
10 INVALID output Output of the valid signal detector that is high when a valid RS-232 level is present on the receiver inputs and low when the device is in AutoShutdown.
11 T1IN input TTL/CMOS transmitter input with logic threshold low of 0.8V maximum and threshold high of 2.0V (VCC = 3.3V) or 2.4V (VCC = 5.0V).
12 FORCEON input Drive high to override the automatic circuitry and keep the transmitters on; FORCEOFF must be high for this to apply.
13 T1OUT output RS-232 transmitter output with a voltage swing of at least ±5.0V into a 3kΩ load, forced to high-impedance when the transmitters are disabled.
14 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
15 VCC power_in Supply voltage of +3.0V to +5.5V.
16 FORCEOFF input Drive low to shut down the transmitters and on-board power supply; this overrides all automatic circuitry and FORCEON.
