MAX3386E Datasheet | Maxim Integrated

19-1529; Rev 1; 10/99 3.0V, ±15kV ESD-Protected RS-232 Transceiver for PDAs and Cell Phones General Description The MAX3386E 3V-powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24 is a munications interface with low power requirements, high data-rate capabilities, and enhanced electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection. The MAX3386E has two receivers and three transmitters. All RS-232 inputs and outputs are protected to ±15kV using the IEC 1000-4-2 Air-Gap Discharge method, ±8kV using the IEC 1000-4-2 Contact Discharge method, and ±15kV using the Human Body Model. A proprietary low-dropout transmitter output stage enables true RS-232 performance from a +3.0V to +5.5V supply with a dual charge pump. The...
