3.0V to 5.5V, Low-Power, up to 1Mbps, True RS-232
Transceivers Using Four 0.1µF External Capacitors
MAX3222/MAX3232/MAX3237/MAX3241*
________________General Description
The MAX3222/MAX3232/MAX3237/MAX3241 trans-
ceivers have a proprietary low-dropout transmitter out-
put stage enabling true RS-232 performance from a
3.0V to 5.5V supply with a dual charge pump. The
devices require only four small 0.1µF external charge-
pump capacitors. The MAX3222, MAX3232, and
MAX3241 are guaranteed to run at data rates of
120kbps while maintaining RS-232 output levels. The
MAX3237 is guaranteed to run at data rates of 250kbps
in the normal operating mode and 1Mbps in the
MegaBaud™ operating mode, while maintaining RS-232
output levels.
The MAX3222/MAX3232 have 2 receivers and 2
drivers. The MAX3222 features a 1µA shutdown mode
that reduces power consumption and extends battery
life in portable systems. Its receivers remain active in
shutdown mode, allowing external devices such as
modems to be monitored using only 1µA supply cur-
rent. The MAX3222 and MAX3232 are pin, package,
and functionally compatible with the industry-standard
MAX242 and MAX232, respectively.
The MAX3241 is a complete serial port (3 drivers/
5 receivers) designed for notebook and subnotebook
computers. The MAX3237 (5 drivers/3 receivers) is ideal
for fast modem applications. Both these devices feature
a shutdown mode in which all receivers can remain
active while using only 1µA supply current. Receivers R1
(MAX3237/MAX3241) and R2 (MAX3241) have extra out-
puts in addition to their standard outputs. These extra
outputs are always active, allowing external devices
such as a modem to be monitored without forward bias-
ing the protection diodes in circuitry that may have V
CC
completely removed.
The MAX3222, MAX3237, and MAX3241 are available
in space-saving TSSOP and SSOP packages.

Note 1:
V+ and V- can have a maximum magnitude of 7V, but their absolute difference cannot exceed 13V.
Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
