Max232 Ic. Data sheet 5v powered multichannel rs 232 drivers receivers. Mostly max232 used in 16 pin dip package.
Max232 ic can help you to convert two logic level conversion that is you can use two microcontrollers but to get started we will use only one mcu and connect it to a computer the complete circuit is to do the same is shown below. The max232 is an integrated circuit first created in 1987 by maxim integrated products that converts signals from a tia 232 rs 232 serial port to signals suitable for use in ttl compatible digital logic circuits. To solve this issue and ic named max232 was introduced by maximum integrated product in 1987.
Max232 introduction max232 was one of its kind which was able to convert the tia eia 32 signals to its voltage and logical levels.
Pin configuration and typical operating circuit. As you can see the pins t2 out r2 in t2 in r2 out are left free since we are not using the second module. Max232 introduction max232 was one of its kind which was able to convert the tia eia 32 signals to its voltage and logical levels. The max 232 ic is an integrated circuit which consists of 16 pins and it is a resourceful ic mostly used in the voltage level signal problems.
