I have had great difficulty getting various MAX3232's to work reliably on 3 .. 3.6V. The datasheet shows the capacitor values you need to use for various voltage ranges... but no joy. The DC-DC converter does not produce the proper output voltages. Check the V- and V+ nodes for around +/- 6V
Oddly, MAX232A's seem to work just fine on 3.3V... I usually use 0.47 uF caps on them. I don't use the non -A versions for the MAX232.
