Features:

• The 'must have' IC for TTL/CMOS projects finally has its own breakout board!
• This is the RS232 converter IC that is capable of running at 3V and communicating with 5V logic.
• We've taken the SOIC package MAX3232 and broken out all the pins you need to set up your RS232 to TTL connection.
• We've also included the necessary 0.1uF charge pump capacitors.
• Also remember that because the MAX3232 operates at a broader voltage range than the 232 (3 - 5.5V) you can use this on both your 3.3 and 5V projects!
