MAX3100 Datasheet (Maxim) - SPI/Microwire-Compatible UART in QSOP-16

MAX3100, SPI/Microwire-Compatible UART in QSOP-16

The MAX3100 universal asynchronous receiver transmitter (UART) is the first UART specifically optimized for small microcontroller-based systems.

Using an SPI™/MICROWIRE™ interface for communication with the host microcontroller (µC), the MAX3100 comes in a compact 16-pin QSOP.
