Does the MAX232IN need external components?
Yes. Its internal charge pump needs external capacitors, typically four as shown in the standard datasheet circuit, to generate the RS-232 voltage levels.
Can I use it with a 3.3 V board such as an ESP32?
Use caution. The MAX232 is designed for 5 V logic, and its outputs swing toward the 5 V supply, which can exceed the limits of 3.3 V boards. Use a level shifter or a 3.3 V-compatible RS-232 transceiver for those boards.
