MAX3222CPN+ 概要

The Analog Devices (formerly Maxim Integrated) MAX3222CPN+ is a 3.0V to 5.5V powered, true RS-232 transceiver that integrates two line drivers, two line receivers, and a dual charge pump in a single 18-pin PDIP through-hole package. It supports data rates up to 1 Mbps (with the MAX3222/MAX3232 family) and uses only four external 0.1 uF capacitors to generate the ±5.5V RS-232 rails from a single 3V supply. The "+" suffix indicates a lead-free, RoHS-compliant shipping tube.

A True RS-232 transceiver is a line driver/receiver IC that translates logic-level UART signals (0/VCC) to RS-232 voltage levels (±5V to ±15V) while also shifting external RS-232 levels back down to logic levels. It is a core sub-category of the serial-communication interface hierarchy: UART -> RS-232 transceiver -> line driver/receiver -> interface IC -> integrated circuit. The internal charge-pump voltage doubler/inverter eliminates the bulky ±12V supplies required by legacy RS-232 designs.

Key features include an enhanced ESD protection of ±15 kV HBM on the RS-232 bus pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs), guaranteed 120 kbps data rate, and a low 1 uA supply current in shutdown. The MAX3222 is pin-, package-, and functionally compatible with the industry-standard MAX242, providing a low-power modern replacement for legacy designs.

The MAX3222 architecture uses an internal dual charge pump (with external 0.1 uF flying and reservoir capacitors) to generate the +5.5V and -5.5V rails required by the RS-232 standard. It includes five receivers/drivers in companion parts (MAX3237 has 3 Rx / 5 Tx, MAX3241 has 5 Rx / 3 Tx) so designers can match port count to application without changing footprint.

Typical applications include industrial point-of-sale terminals, networking equipment serial ports, embedded UART-to-RS-232 bridges, and legacy PC peripherals where a through-hole DIP form factor is preferred for hand-prototyping or repair. The wide 3.0V-5.5V supply range lets the same part work from a 3.3V MCU rail or a 5V logic rail.

When designing with this device, place the four 0.1 uF charge-pump capacitors as close to the IC pins as possible to minimize supply ripple and meet RS-232 voltage levels under full load. For battery-powered designs, take advantage of the SHDN pin (active-low) to drop quiescent current to 1 uA between transmissions.

主な用途

MAX3222CPN+ の用途: 6 件s: Industrial Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals, Embedded UART-to-RS-232 Bridge Modules, Networking Equipment Serial Console Ports, Legacy PC Peripheral Adapters, Battery-Powered Handheld Test & Measurement, Modbus RTU / DMX512 Communication Interfaces.

🏭

Industrial Point-of-Sale (POS) Terminals

The MAX3222CPN+ is well suited for POS terminals that must communicate with legacy serial peripherals (barcode scanners, receipt printers, cash drawers) over RS-232. Its 3.0 V to 5.5 V supply range lets the same IC work from a 3.3 V MCU rail or a 5 V logic rail, while the four external 0.1 uF charge-pump capacitors minimize BOM cost versus designs requiring ±12 V supplies. The ±15 kV HBM ESD protection on the RS-232 bus pins reduces the need for external TVS arrays, which is critical for retail equipment that experiences frequent cable insertion events. Pair it with a Cortex-M0 host MCU running FreeRTOS, and use the SHDN pin to enter 1 uA quiescent between transactions.

🔧

Embedded UART-to-RS-232 Bridge Modules

Embedded boards that expose a 3.3 V UART header (Raspberry Pi, STM32 Nucleo, ESP32 dev kits) commonly need an RS-232 level shifter to talk to industrial equipment, PLCs, and lab instruments. The MAX3222CPN+ provides a self-contained 2-driver / 2-receiver bridge in a through-hole 18-PDIP that breadboard-friendly designs can hand-solder. The 1 Mbps maximum data rate (120 kbps guaranteed) covers Modbus RTU, DMX512, and most legacy serial protocols. Designers typically pair it with a DB9 connector and four 0.1 uF ceramic caps placed within 5 mm of the IC pins to keep charge-pump ripple under the RS-232 spec.

🌐

Networking Equipment Serial Console Ports

Routers, switches, and base stations require an out-of-band serial console port that survives AC power-line surges, hot-plug events, and field-service handling. The MAX3222CPN+'s ±15 kV HBM ESD on the RJ45/DB9 connector pins provides margin against field-failure modes, while its 1 uA shutdown current lets the system cut power to unused console ports in low-power standby. The MAX3222/MAX3232 family is pin-compatible with the older MAX242, allowing modern RoHS-compliant refreshes of legacy networking designs. Designers commonly place the four 0.1 uF capacitors on the top side adjacent to the IC for reworkability.

🖥️

Legacy PC Peripheral Adapters

Field repairs of industrial PCs, CNC controllers, and medical instruments often require an RS-232 transceiver in a through-hole DIP for compatibility with hand-rework and existing through-hole PCB designs. The MAX3222CPN+'s 18-PDIP footprint matches the legacy MAX232 and MAX242, allowing drop-in upgrades that reduce operating voltage from 5 V-only to a flexible 3.0 V to 5.5 V range while eliminating ±12 V supplies. The ±15 kV ESD protection reduces warranty returns from ESD-damaged ports. Designers should retain the four 0.1 uF capacitors close to the charge-pump pins to ensure RS-232-compliant ±5 V driver outputs across the full 3.0 V to 5.5 V supply range.

💊

Battery-Powered Handheld Test & Measurement

Handheld multimeters, oscilloscope probes, and field-service tools that need an RS-232 diagnostic port benefit from the MAX3222CPN+'s 1 uA shutdown current and 3.0 V to 5.5 V operation from a single Li-ion cell. The active-low SHDN pin allows the MCU to gate the transceiver off entirely between diagnostic sessions, extending battery life by months in standby. The 18-PDIP through-hole package is easier to hand-solder than QFN alternatives, which speeds field repair. The ±15 kV HBM ESD protection is a key differentiator for instruments that connect to unknown grounded equipment in the field.

💡

Modbus RTU / DMX512 Communication Interfaces

Industrial Modbus RTU networks (commonly running at 9600 to 115200 baud) and DMX512 lighting-control buses both use RS-232/RS-485 physical layers, where the MAX3222CPN+ serves as a low-cost transceiver on the RS-232 segment. The 120 kbps guaranteed data rate comfortably exceeds the 115200 baud Modbus ceiling with margin for protocol overhead. The four 0.1 uF charge-pump caps produce ±5.5 V from a single 3.3 V rail, removing the need for isolated ±12 V supplies in space-constrained lighting fixtures and PLC modules. Pair with TVS protection (e.g. SMBJ series) on the bus side for surge immunity.

The MAX3222CPN+ is a 3.0 V to 5.5 V powered, true RS-232 transceiver from Analog Devices in an 18-pin PDIP package. It is used to translate UART logic levels to RS-232 voltage levels for point-to-point serial communication between a microcontroller and legacy peripherals such as modems, POS terminals, and industrial equipment.
What is the maximum data rate of MAX3222CPN+?
The MAX3222CPN+ is guaranteed to operate at 120 kbps and supports data rates up to 1 Mbps within the MAX3222/MAX3232 family. According to the Analog Devices datasheet, the 1 Mbps operation requires VCC >= 3.0 V and a 250 kbps-load, so confirm timing margins for high-speed designs.
How many external capacitors does the MAX3222CPN+ require?
The MAX3222CPN+ requires exactly four external 0.1 uF capacitors for the internal dual charge pump. These are two flying capacitors and two reservoir capacitors that generate the +5.5 V and -5.5 V RS-232 rails from a single 3 V or 5 V logic supply, eliminating the bulky ±12 V supplies of legacy designs.
What is the ESD protection level of the MAX3222CPN+?
The MAX3222CPN+ provides ±15 kV HBM ESD protection on the RS-232 driver outputs and receiver inputs per the datasheet. This is significantly higher than the typical 2 kV HBM of standard logic ICs, which reduces the need for external TVS diodes on the bus-side pins.
Where can I buy the MAX3222CPN+ and what is the price?
The MAX3222CPN+ is in stock at major distributors including DigiKey, Mouser, Newark, and Octopart, with the family starting at $3.87 per 1,000 pieces per Analog Devices. Single-piece retail is approximately $5.32 as of 2026-10-05, with volume discounts below $3.95 per piece at 1k quantity.
What is the lead time for the MAX3222CPN+?
Lead time for the MAX3222CPN+ at authorized distributors is typically 8-12 weeks ex-factory from Analog Devices, with distributor stock generally shipping same-day from DigiKey and Mouser. Per the Newark listing, same-day dispatch is offered on in-stock units.

The MAX3222 and MAX3232 share an identical 18-pin PDIP pinout and both operate from 3.0 V to 5.5 V, but the MAX3222 targets higher data rates (up to 1 Mbps) while the MAX3232 is specified at 120 kbps. Both include the dual charge pump with four 0.1 uF external capacitors and ±15 kV ESD protection, making them drop-in compatible in most applications.
MAX3222CPN+ vs MAX3241CWN - which is better for a 5-port serial card?
The MAX3222CPN+ provides 2 drivers and 2 receivers in an 18-PDIP, while the MAX3241CWN offers 3 drivers and 5 receivers in a wider 28-SOIC package. For a 5-port serial card you would need three MAX3222CPN+ ICs versus two MAX3241CWNs, so the MAX3241 reduces board area and BOM cost despite the package change.
When should I choose MAX3222CPN+ over ST3222CPN+?
Choose the MAX3222CPN+ when you need an established, fully-documented second-source with strong distribution inventory and an extensive ecosystem of reference designs. The ST3222CPN+ from STMicroelectronics offers similar 3.0 V to 5.5 V operation with four external capacitors and is a functional drop-in equivalent in 18-PDIP, but the MAX3222CPN+ provides ±15 kV HBM ESD protection and a stronger track record in industrial designs.
What is the best drop-in replacement for MAX3222CPN+?
The best drop-in replacement for the MAX3222CPN+ in 18-PDIP is the MAX3222EPN+ (extended-temperature -40 C to +85 C variant) or the ST3222CPN+ from STMicroelectronics.

主な差別化要因

  • Industry-leading ±15 kV HBM ESD protection on RS-232 pins (vs MAX3232CPN+)
  • Up to 1 Mbps data rate capability within the family (vs MAX3232CPN+)
  • Established second-source ecosystem across two vendors (vs ST3222CPN+)

設計ノート

Place all four 0.1 uF charge-pump capacitors (C1, C2 flying; V+ and V- reservoir) within 5 mm of their respective IC pins to minimize supply ripple and ensure the RS-232 driver outputs meet the ±5 V minimum spec under full load. Use X7R or X5R ceramic dielectrics; avoid Y5V which loses 70% capacitance at 5 V bias. Keep capacitor ground returns short and connect them to the IC GND pin (pin 11) via a wide trace or via farm to prevent ground bounce during high-speed transitions.

Do not omit the SHDN (pin 18) tie-off - if left floating it may drift high or low and cause unexpected shutdown behavior. Tie SHDN high (to VCC) through a 100 kohm pull-up for always-on operation, or drive it directly from a GPIO for shutdown control. Also note that the INVALID output (pin 17) requires a pull-up resistor (typically 100 kohm to VCC) if you monitor it, since it is an open-drain output per the datasheet.

Keep the RS-232 bus traces (T1OUT, T2OUT, R1IN, R2IN) routed away from clock and high-speed digital signals to minimize crosstalk. The through-hole 18-PDIP package is forgiving for two-layer boards, but if you convert to SOIC or SSOP variants, place the charge-pump capacitors on the same layer as the IC and avoid via transitions on the capacitor return paths. For ±15 kV ESD margin, consider adding a SMBJ6.0CA TVS array at the DB9 connector as defense-in-depth.
