MAX232 RS232 Interface Module Guide

This document describes an RS232 interface board project based on the MAX232 IC. The board provides a simple solution to connect a microcontroller's input/output to a computer's serial port by performing voltage level shifting between 5V and 12V using the MAX232 chip. Key components include a 9-pin female serial port connector, MAX232 IC, and header connector for interfacing with a host device.

This project provides you a simple and easy solution to connect / convert your
Microcontroller input/output to be connected to the serial port of the Computer.

This projects build around popular MAX232 level shifter IC to do the Level Shifting

(Voltage) between 5 V and 12 V DC.

An Onboard 9 pin female “D” connects this PCB to the Serial Port cable (not supplied

with the Kit). Connector J1 connects to the Host for power supply and serial In/Out
signals.

A – Provides data from the Computer to the Host (RXD)

B – Provides data to be sent to the Computer from the Host (TXD)

Specifications:

Supply 5V DC @ 50mA

MAX232 based Level Shifter IC


Simple and straight forward design
Easy connection via relimate/Header connector to your HOST interface

Supply provided by the host interface


Four mounting holes of 3.2 mm each
PCB dimensions 40 mm x 33 mm
