Search the Adom Wiki for the library component "MAX232" (slug: max232) at https://wiki-ufypy5dpx93o.adom.cloud/wiki/libraries/max232. Pull down the KiCad symbol, footprint, and 3D model files from the wiki page's assets. Install them into my current KiCad project and register in sym-lib-table and fp-lib-table. If the page has a datasheet URL, save that too.
The MAX232 converts TTL/CMOS logic levels to RS-232 serial voltage levels and vice versa using charge pump capacitors. Essential for interfacing microcontrollers with RS-232 serial ports.
