Maxim Integrated Line Transceiver, CMOS, Inverting, 24-Pin PDIP

The MAX220–MAX249 family of line drivers/receivers is intended for communications interfaces, particularly applications where ±12V is not available..
The MAX225, MAX233, MAX235, and MAX245/MAX246/MAX247 use no external components and are recommended for applications where printed circuit board space is critical.
The MAX220–MAX249 are offered in 26 different packages with temperatures from 0 to +70°C up to -55°C to +125°C.
