FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The MAX3318E is a dual-driver, dual-receiver, RS-
ESD Protection for RS-232 I/O Pins
232-compatible transceiver. The device features
±15 kV (Human-Body Model)
auto-power-down plus and enhanced electrostatic
±8 kV (IEC 61000-4-2, Contact Discharge)
discharge (ESD) protection integrated into the chip.
