MAX3223IDBR

Texas Instruments · RS232 ICs · SSOP-20-208mil

MAX3223IDBR from Texas Instruments, 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 input; low enables receiver outputs to CMOS logic levels, high disables to high impedance.
2 C1+ passive Charge pump capacitor positive terminal pin; connect 0.1 µF external nonpolarized ceramic capacitor.
3 V+ power_out Positive voltage output from dual charge pump; generates approximately +10V from 3-5.5V VCC supply.
4 C1− passive Charge pump capacitor negative terminal pin; connect 0.1 µF external nonpolarized ceramic capacitor.
5 C2+ passive Second stage charge pump capacitor positive terminal pin; connect 0.1 µF external nonpolarized ceramic capacitor.
6 C2− passive Second stage charge pump capacitor negative terminal pin; connect 0.1 µF external nonpolarized ceramic capacitor.
7 V− power_out Negative voltage output from dual charge pump; generates approximately -10V from 3-5.5V VCC supply.
8 DOUT2 tri_state RS-232 driver output for channel 2; outputs ±5.4V nominal (±13.2V maximum) when enabled or high impedance when powered off.
9 RIN2 input RS-232 receiver input for channel 2; rated to accept input signals from -25V to +25V.
10 ROUT2 tri_state CMOS receiver output for channel 2; drives CMOS logic levels when EN is low, otherwise high impedance.
11 INVALID output Auto-powerdown status indicator output; high when valid RS-232 signal detected on any receiver input.
12 DIN2 input CMOS logic driver input for channel 2; controls DOUT2 output state when driver is enabled.
13 DIN1 input CMOS logic driver input for channel 1; controls DOUT1 output state when driver is enabled.
14 FORCEON input Auto-powerdown enable control input; low enables auto-powerdown feature when FORCEOFF is high.
15 ROUT1 tri_state CMOS receiver output for channel 1; drives CMOS logic levels when EN is low, otherwise high impedance.
16 RIN1 input RS-232 receiver input for channel 1; rated to accept input signals from -25V to +25V.
17 DOUT1 tri_state RS-232 driver output for channel 1; outputs ±5.4V nominal (±13.2V maximum) when enabled or high impedance when powered off.
18 GND power_in Ground reference pin for all circuits and signal levels.
19 VCC power_in Main positive power supply input; operating voltage range 3V to 5.5V DC.
20 FORCEOFF input Power control input; low disables drivers and receivers, high enables operation.
