MAX3232CDR Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The MAX3232CDR can support data rates up to 250 kbps.

  • Yes, the MAX3232CDR can be used in a multi-point configuration, but it requires an external diode and resistor network to ensure proper operation.

  • The MAX3232CDR requires a termination resistor (R_T) of 1 kΩ to 10 kΩ between the output (T_OUT) and ground (GND) to ensure proper operation.

  • The recommended power-on sequence is to apply VCC first, followed by VREF, and then enable the transmitter (TX_EN) and receiver (RX_EN) pins.

  • Yes, the MAX3232CDR has built-in noise immunity and can operate in noisy environments, but it's still important to follow proper PCB layout and design guidelines to minimize noise coupling.
