MAX232CPE Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The MAX232CPE can support data rates up to 120 kbps.

  • Yes, the MAX232CPE can be used in a multi-point configuration, but it is not recommended as it may cause signal degradation and errors.

  • To ensure proper termination, a 1 kΩ resistor should be connected between the RIN and GND pins, and a 1 kΩ resistor should be connected between the TOUT and GND pins.

  • The recommended power-up sequence is to apply VCC first, followed by V+ and V-, and then apply the input signals.

  • Yes, the MAX232CPE can be used in a battery-powered device, but it is recommended to use a voltage regulator to ensure a stable supply voltage.
