The Xinluda XL232K is a +5V-powered, multichannel RS-232 driver/receiver IC designed for EIA/TIA-232E and V.28/V.24 communication interfaces, particularly applications where a bipolar +/-12V supply is not available. It integrates dual on-chip charge pumps that generate the bipolar RS-232 line voltages from a single +5V rail, eliminating the need for a dual supply. With two drivers and two receivers, the XL232K shares the industry-standard MAX232 pinout and function, making it a cost-effective option for serial communication ports in industrial and consumer electronics.
The XL232K is an Asian-market RS-232 transceiver with limited authorized-distributor coverage in North America and Europe, which can make it difficult to source through mainstream channels. As an independent distributor specializing in hard-to-find interface and power-management ICs, Pacific Component Xchange helps engineers and buyers secure the XL232K and compatible MAX232-class parts even when standard supply lines are constrained or obsolete. Every order is backed by authenticity verification and rigorous incoming inspection, with global shipping to keep your production lines running. Request a quote (RFQ) today for current availability, lead time, and volume pricing on the XL232K.
The XL232K is a +5V-powered, multichannel RS-232 driver/receiver IC from Xinluda, with 2 drivers and 2 receivers. It uses dual on-chip charge pumps to generate RS-232 line levels from a single +5V supply and is supplied in a wide-body SOP-16(W) package.
Yes. The XL232K shares the industry-standard MAX232 16-pin pinout and dual driver/receiver function, making it a suitable drop-in alternative for many RS-232 serial interface designs (distributors cross-reference it to parts such as the MAX232CWE+).
The XL232K is supplied in a wide-body SOP-16(W) surface-mount package (body size approximately 10.45 x 7.5 mm). Xinluda offers the same die in other packages: the XL232Z (SOP-16), XL232-TS (TSSOP-16), and XD232 (DIP-16).
Per the datasheet, the XL232K requires four external 1 uF (1uF/16V) capacitors for its dual charge-pump voltage converter, plus a VCC decoupling capacitor of the same value placed close to the device.
The datasheet specifies a VCC supply current of typically 8 mA, with a maximum of 16 mA, measured with no load at 25 C. The device operates over a -40 C to +85 C temperature range.
