Part number : MAX232
An electrolytic capacitor is connected to pin 2 of MAX232. Should the other end of the capacitor be connected to Vcc or to GND.
What are the implications in connecteing this capacitor to Vcc (or GND)

Atul,
Either connection is good.
However, connecting to VCC induces less switching noise on the VCC line.
