Alternative Part Number

  • ADM237LJNZ --: Pin-compatible multi-channel RS-232 transceiver with integrated charge pump, direct functional drop-in for MAX237 in most designs.
  • ST232ECDR --: Widely available 5V RS-232 transceiver with similar driver/receiver count and charge-pump architecture; good cost-effective substitute.
  • ICL3237CAZ --: Equivalent multi-channel RS-232 interface with on-chip charge pump, matching the MAX237 function and supply range.
  • HIN237CPZ --: Five-driver/three-receiver RS-232 interface with onboard charge pump, same pinout and function, widely used as a drop-in replacement.
  • ST232ECN --: RS-232 transceiver with charge pump offering similar driver/receiver functionality and supply range, suitable for equivalent serial interface designs.
  • ICL3232ECPZ --: Dual RS-232 driver/receiver with charge pump, functionally similar serial interface solution usable where the MAX237 is unavailable.
  • ST232CWR --: Low-cost 5V RS-232 transceiver offering comparable driver/receiver configuration and compatible logic interface for the same application.
  • ICL232CPE --: Classic dual RS-232 driver/receiver with similar functionality and DIP package, suitable for legacy designs needing a drop-in style replacement.
