The MAX233CPP can support data rates up to 250kbps.
Yes, the MAX233CPP can be used in a multi-point configuration, but it requires an external multiplexer or switch to connect multiple devices to a single RS-232 bus.
The MAX233CPP has built-in EMI and RFI filtering, and it also has a high common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) to minimize the effects of electromagnetic interference.
The power consumption of the MAX233CPP is typically around 5mA, but it can vary depending on the operating conditions and the load connected to the device.
Yes, the MAX233CPP is suitable for battery-powered devices due to its low power consumption and low voltage operation (down to 3.3V).
