Key Features

  • 3 Mbps data rate supports high-speed RS-232 communication well beyond the traditional 115.2 kbps limitation
  • Low-voltage interface compatible with 1.8 V logic levels bridges modern MCU I/O to RS-232 equipment
  • 2 drivers and 2 receivers in a single 20-pin QFN 5x5 mm package minimizes component count and PCB area
  • Differential Schmitt trigger inputs provide noise immunity for reliable operation in noisy industrial environments

Applications

The MAX13235EETP+ is used in industrial control systems, POS terminals, and embedded computing platforms that require high-speed RS-232 communication at 3 Mbps between modern 1.8 V MCUs and legacy serial equipment. Its compact 20-pin QFN footprint suits space-constrained designs in medical instruments, network routers, and data acquisition systems needing EIA-232/TIA-232 compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

What data rate does the MAX13235EETP+ support and which interface standards does it comply with?

The MAX13235EETP+ supports RS-232 data rates up to 3 Mbps and is compliant with EIA-232, TIA-232, V.24, and V.28 interface standards, making it suitable for both legacy and modern high-speed serial communication applications.

How does the 1.8 V low-voltage interface on MAX13235EETP+ benefit designs with modern microcontrollers?

The low-voltage logic interface allows direct connection of the MAX13235EETP+ to 1.8 V MCU GPIO pins without level-shifting circuitry, reducing BOM cost and PCB area in systems that combine modern low-power processors with RS-232 serial ports requiring ±5 V to ±15 V swing.

What package does MAX13235EETP+ use and how does it compare to SOIC-based alternatives?

The MAX13235EETP+ uses a 20-pin QFN (LFCSP) package measuring 5 mm x 5 mm x 0.75 mm, which is approximately 60% smaller in footprint than an equivalent 20-pin SOIC package, enabling denser PCB layouts in handheld and space-constrained industrial devices.

For a POS terminal upgrading from RS-232 at 115 kbps to 3 Mbps, is MAX13235EETP+ a drop-in upgrade candidate?

Yes, the MAX13235EETP+ is an upgrade candidate for POS terminals, as it maintains EIA-232 compliance while increasing throughput by up to 26x from 115.2 kbps to 3 Mbps, and its 2-driver/2-receiver count matches common dual-port RS-232 transceiver configurations without requiring firmware changes.
