The MAX208IDBG4 is a RS-232 multichannel Line Driver/Receiver consists of four line drivers, four line receivers and a dual charge-pump circuit. It has ±15kV HBM ESD protection pin-to-pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND). The device meets the requirements of TIA/EIA-232-F and provides the electrical interface between an asynchronous communication controller and the serial-port connector. The charge pump and four small external capacitors allow operation from a single 5V supply. The device operates at data signalling rates up to 120kbps and a maximum of 30V/μs driver output slew rate.
Latch-up performance exceeds 100mA per JESD 78, class II
