MAX3232EEUE-T

±15kV ESD-Protected, Down to 10nA, 3V to 5.5V,Up to 1Mbps, True RS-232 Transceivers

General Description

The MAX3222E/MAX3232E/MAX3237E/MAX3241E/MAX3246E +3.0V-powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 communications interface devices feature low power consumption, high data-rate capabilities, and enhanced electrostatic-discharge ESD protection. The enhanced ESD structure protects all transmitter outputs and receiver inputs to ±15kV using IEC 1000-4-2 Air-Gap Discharge, ±8kV using IEC 1000-4-2 Contact Discharge ±9kV for MAX3246E, and ±15kV using the Human Body Model. The logic and receiver I/O pins of the MAX3237E are protected to the above standards, while the transmit ter output pins are protected to ±15kV using the Human Body Model.
