MAX3223EEAP+

Maxim Integrated · RS232 ICs · SSOP-20-208mil

MAX3223EEAP+ from Maxim Integrated, in a SSOP-20-208mil. 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 high to force the receiver outputs into a high-impedance state.
2 C1+ passive Positive terminal of the voltage doubler charge-pump capacitor, with 0.1µF required for 3.3V operation.
3 V+ power_out +5.5V supply generated by the charge pump.
4 C1- passive Negative terminal of the voltage doubler charge-pump capacitor.
5 C2+ passive Positive terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor.
6 C2- passive Negative terminal of the inverting charge-pump capacitor.
7 V- power_out -5.5V supply generated by the charge pump.
8 T2OUT output RS-232 transmitter output, guaranteed at least ±5.0V under loaded conditions and forced to high impedance when disabled.
9 R2IN input RS-232 receiver input with an input voltage range of ±25V.
10 R2OUT output TTL/CMOS inverting three-state receiver output.
11 INVALID output Output of the valid signal detector, enabled high when a valid RS-232 level is present on any receiver input.
12 T2IN input TTL/CMOS transmitter input, which has no pull-up resistor.
13 T1IN input TTL/CMOS transmitter input, which has no pull-up resistor.
14 FORCEON input Drive high to override the automatic circuitry and keep transmitters and charge pump on, provided FORCEOFF is high.
15 R1OUT output TTL/CMOS inverting three-state receiver output.
16 R1IN input RS-232 receiver input with an input voltage range of ±25V.
17 T1OUT output RS-232 transmitter output, guaranteed at least ±5.0V under loaded conditions and forced to high impedance when disabled.
18 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
19 VCC power_in Supply voltage of +3.0V to +5.5V.
20 FORCEOFF input Force-off input, active low: drive low to shut down the transmitters and on-board charge pump, overriding AutoShutdown and FORCEON.
