MAX203EEWP

The MAX203EEWP is one member of the MAX203E family which is designed as the ±15kV ESD-protected, +5V RS-232 transceiver. This kind of transmitter output and receiver input is protected against ±15kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) shocks, without latchup. The MAX203EEWP can be used in notebook, subnotebook, and palmtop computers, battery-powered equipment, hand-held equipment.

Features of the MAX203EEWP are:(1)for low-voltage applications:±15kV ESD-protected down to 10nA, +3.0V to +5.5V, up to 1Mbps, true RS-232 transceiv-ers;(2)for low-power applications:1A supply current, true +3V to +5.5V RS-232 transceivers with auto-shutdown;(3)for space-constrained applications:± 15kV ESD-protected, 1A, 250kbps, +3.0V/+5.5V, dual RS-232 transceivers with internal capacitors;(4)for low-voltage or data cable applications:+2.35V to +5.5V, 1A, 2Tx/2Rx RS-232 transceivers with ±15kV ESD protected I/O and logic pins.

The absolute maximum ratings of the MAX203EEWP can be summarized as:(1)Vcc:-0.3V to +6V;(2)V+:(Vcc-0.3V) to +14V;(3)V-:-14V to +0.3V;(4)lead temperature (soldering, 10sec):+300°C;(5)storage temperature range:-65°C to +165°C;(6)operating temperature ranges:-40°C to +85°C;(7)short-circuit duration, T_OUT:continuous.
