|---|---|---|---|---|
| FFF Compatibility | Exact same 24-pin wide PDIP (0.600" / 15.24mm) footprint and identical pinout.Identical physical dimensions and DIP-24 through-hole mounting.Same 5-driver / 5-receiver channel count, single 5V operation, and 120Kbps data rate with a wider temperature range. | Has a completely different pinout and is housed in a narrower 24-DIP package.Uses a 0.300" (7.62mm) narrow body DIP-24 package instead of the original 0.600" (15.24mm) wide body package.Only provides 4 drivers and 4 receivers (compared to 5/5 on the original) and requires 4 external 1.0µF charge-pump capacitors. | ||
MAX235CPG+G36 by Analog Devices: 5/5 Transceiver Full RS232 24-PDIP. | This is the exact same silicon and package configuration from the same family, but rated for a wider industrial temperature range. However, please note that because the entire MAX235 series has been discontinued by the manufacturer, this sibling is also obsolete and is recommended primarily for sourcing from legacy channels or excess stock.
| An active through-hole alternative in the same 5V RS-232 family. It is suitable if the application can accept one fewer transceiver channel and the board is redesigned to accommodate a narrow DIP package with external capacitors.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.
All your BOM, at once
Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.
Hear about problems before they hit production
Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.
Qualified replacements in minutes, not days
Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. The Analog Devices MAX235CPG+G36 is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
The closest qualified second sources for the Analog Devices MAX235CPG+G36 are the MAX235EPG+ (Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated) and the MAX238CNG+ (Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated), out of 3 matched alternatives in total. Each is compared against the original on fit, form and function in the table above.
Not always. The alternatives to the MAX235CPG+G36 are matched on function but can differ in package, pinout or a key parameter, so review the fit/form/function notes in the table and the datasheet before designing one in.
The MAX235CPG+G36 (Analog Devices) is a part in the Interface category. This page lists qualified, cross-referenced replacements for it with a side-by-side comparison.
