Overview
The MAX232EIN is a RS232 IC made by Texas Instruments in a PDIP-16 package with 16 pins. -40℃~+85℃ 2 2 250Kbps 4.5V~5.5V 8mA Transceiver Yes ±15kV PDIP-16 RS232 ICs ROHS.
PCBKit's library has its KiCad symbol (Interface_UART:MAX232, from KiCad's library) and its footprint (Package_DIP:DIP-16_W8.89mm_SMDSocket_LongPads, from KiCad's library), ready for a KiCad board. 901 are in stock at JLCPCB (part C2860250). 1 open-source board in 1 repository on GitHub use it.

Questions
Is there a KiCad symbol and footprint for the MAX232EIN?
Yes. The symbol is Interface_UART:MAX232 and the footprint Package_DIP:DIP-16_W8.89mm_SMDSocket_LongPads, both drawn on this page. PCBKit places them on a board for you when you design with it.
What package is the MAX232EIN?
PDIP-16, with 16 pins. Its footprint is drawn on this page.
Where is the MAX232EIN datasheet?
Texas Instruments publishes it: the Datasheet link on this page opens it.
Where can I order the MAX232EIN?
JLCPCB lists it as part C2860250, with 901 in stock; the sellers' links on this page open their listings.
What can replace the MAX232EIN?
Parts like it in the library: the MAX202EIN by HGSEMI, the MAX232N by Texas Instruments, the HGX232EIN by HGSEMI and the MAX3232AEIN by HGSEMI. Check their datasheets: a part that fits the footprint may still differ in its ratings.
Which open-source boards use the MAX232EIN?
1 board in 1 repository on GitHub; the most starred are listed on this page, with their KiCad files.
