MAX3226EEAE+

Maxim Integrated · Pre-ordered Chips · SSOP-16-208mil

MAX3226EEAE+ from Maxim Integrated, in a SSOP-16-208mil. 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 READY output READY is an active-high ready-to-transmit output that goes high when V- goes below -4V and the device is ready to transmit.
2 C1+ passive Positive terminal of the voltage-doubler charge-pump capacitor.
3 V+ power_out V+ is the +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 V- is the -5.5V supply generated by the inverting charge pump.
8 R1IN input RS-232 receiver input that tolerates ±25V relative to GND per the absolute maximum ratings.
9 R1OUT output TTL/CMOS receiver output.
10 INVALID output Active-low valid-signal detector output; a logic high indicates that a valid RS-232 level is present on a receiver input.
11 T1IN input TTL/CMOS transmitter input with no pullup; connect unused inputs to GND or VCC.
12 FORCEON input Active-high force-on input that overrides AutoShutdown Plus to keep transmitters and receivers on, provided FORCEOFF is high.
13 T1OUT output RS-232 transmitter output that goes high impedance when disabled and can be driven to ±12V when powered off or shut down.
14 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
15 VCC power_in Single supply voltage input, +3.0V to +5.5V.
16 FORCEOFF input Active-low force-off input; when low, transmitters are high impedance, charge pumps are shut down, and receivers stay active.
