The MAX3224/MAX3226/MAX3244 maintain the RS-232
±5.0V minimum transmitter output voltage even at high
data rates. Figure 7 shows a transmitter loopback test
circuit. Figure 8 shows a loopback test result at
120kbps, and Figure 9 shows the same test at
250kbps. For Figure 8, all transmitters were driven
simultaneously at 120kbps into RS-232 loads in parallel
with 1000pF. For Figure 9, a single transmitter was dri-
ven at 250kbps, and all transmitters were loaded with
an RS-232 receiver in parallel with 250pF.

The MAX3225/MAX3227/MAX3245 maintain the RS-232
±5.0V minimum transmitter output voltage at data rates
up to 1Mbps (MegaBaud). Figure 10 shows a loopback
test result with a single transmitter driven at 1Mbps and
all transmitters loaded with an RS-232 receiver in paral-
lel with 250pF.
The MAX3244/MAX3245 are specifically designed to
power serial mice while operating from low-voltage
power supplies. They have been tested with leading
mouse brands from manufacturers such as Microsoft
and Logitech. The MAX3244/MAX3245 successfully
