ADM205-ADM211/ADM213 is a 0.1 F, +5 V powered CMOS RS-232 driver/receiver from Analog Devices. The product has 0.1 F to 10 F capacitors, 120 kB/s data rate, 2 receivers active in shutdown (ADM213), on-board DC-DC converters, 9 V output swing, +5 V supply, low power (15 mW), low power shutdown≤5 mW, 30 V receiver input levels, latch-up-free plug-in upgrade MAX205-211/213.
The ADM2xx family of CMOS RS‑232 drivers/receivers is designed for EIA‑232‑E and V.28 interfaces where a +12 V supply is unavailable. The devices operate from a single +5 V supply and include internal charge‑pump converters that generate the required ±10 V RS‑232 levels. Low‑power shutdown reduces consumption to under 5 µW, making the parts suitable for battery‑powered equipment.
The handbook contains feature tables, detailed pin‑out diagrams, electrical specifications, ordering guides for multiple package types (plastic DIP, SOIC, SSOP), and typical performance curves. It also lists recommended applications such as computers, modems, printers, and instrumentation.
