Overview
The ST3232C is a RS232 IC made by STMicroelectronics in a TSSOP-16 package with 16 pins. 0℃~+70℃ 2 2 3V~5.5V 400Kbps Transceiver Yes TSSOP-16 RS232 ICs ROHS.
PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (st3232:ST3232, from Agg-kicad) and its footprint (Package_SO:TSSOP-16_4.4x5mm_P0.65mm, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. 1,003 are in stock at JLCPCB (part C118285).

Questions
Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the ST3232C?
Yes. The symbol is st3232:ST3232 and the footprint Package_SO:TSSOP-16_4.4x5mm_P0.65mm, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the ST3232C?
TSSOP-16, with 16 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where is the ST3232C datasheet?
STMicroelectronics publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.
Where can I order the ST3232C?
JLCPCB lists it as part C118285, with 1,003 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the ST3232C?
Parts like it in the library: the SP3232EEY-L/TR by MaxLinear, the MAX3232IPW by Texas Instruments, the MAX3232EIPW by Texas Instruments and the MAX3232ECPW by Texas Instruments. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
