The MAX222 is a 5-V dual RS-232 line driver and receiver designed for asynchronous communication applications. It features ¬±15 kV ESD protection on all pins, ensuring robust performance in environments susceptible to electrical discharge. The device operates from a single 5-V supply and supports data signaling rates up to 200 kbit/s, making it suitable for battery-powered systems, PDAs, laptops, and other handheld devices. The MAX222 includes two line drivers and two line receivers, along with a dual charge-pump circuit that requires only four external capacitors (0.1 ¬µF each) for operation. It has a low supply current of 4 to 10 mA during active operation and only 2 ¬µA in shutdown mode, which enhances power efficiency. The device meets or exceeds TIA/EIA-232-F and ITU v.28 standards, ensuring compatibility with existing RS-232 systems. The operating temperature range for the MAX222CDWRG4 is from 0¬8C to 70¬8C, making it suitable for a variety of applications.
