Isolated RS232 interface to Microcontroller

I've seen on the net the schematics for RS232 with Opto-Isolation. The supply on the PC side is from the PC. The supply from the line side is external? I've seen the 3 connectors (RX, TX & GND) together with 2 connectors 5V. One of them is connected to the device. How about the other? Needs additional power source?

Could you send me the PCB and component layout, as well as the component list, I'm afraid to get mistaken

The the circuit you are referring to is... RS232 Isolation

The Blue line indicates the Optical Isolation, no wires or cooper should cross this line. Yes the PC Powers the left side, The supply to the right side is the Microcontroller supply. The Microcontroller will have a +5 and GND use this for the right side of opto. I have no PCB for this. You can make your own PCB using eagle cad. I made this circuit as i could not risk my PC and had no other components. I had to make a high voltage measurement with the PC, so this caution.

Also use the Max232 if you do no need 1KV Optical Isolation.

MAX232
A MAX232 chip has long been using in many uC boards. It provides 2-channel RS232C port and requires external 10uF capacitors. Carefully check the polarity ...
