±15kV ESD-Protected, Quad, Low-Power
RS-232 Line Driver
_______________General Description
The MAX1488E quad, low-power line driver is designed
for EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-562, and CCITT V.28 commu-
nications in harsh environments. Each transmitter out-
put is protected against ±15kV electrostatic discharge
(ESD) shocks. The inputs are TTL and CMOS compati-
ble with minimal loading. The outputs feature internally
controlled slew-rate limiting and current limiting. This
device has a guaranteed 120kbps data rate. Power-
supply current is less than 180µA over a ±4.5V to
±13.2V supply voltage range.
The MAX1488E is pin compatible with the MC1488,
MC14C88, SN75188, SN75C188, DS1488, and
DS14C88. It is available in 14-pin plastic DIP and SO
packages.

_______________Detailed Description
The MAX1488E provides ±15kV of ESD protection when
operating or when powered down. After an ESD event,
the MAX1488E will not latch up. Internal slew-rate-limit-
ing circuitry eliminates the need for external capacitors.
The MAX1488E has a guaranteed 120kbps data rate.

Outputs
Tables 1 and 2 describe the output states. The output
voltage level is affected by both the load current and
supply voltage, and is stable over temperature. Refer to
the
Typical Operating Characteristics
to see how the
output voltage varies with supply voltage, load capaci-
tance, and temperature.

operation. Maxim’s engineers developed state-of-the-
art structures to protect these pins against ESD of
±15kV, without damage. After an ESD event, the
MAX1488E keeps working without latchup.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways; the
transmitter outputs are characterized for protection to
the following:
1) ±15kV using the Human Body Model
2) ±6kV using the Contact-Discharge Method specified
in IEC1000-4-2 (formerly IEC801-2)
3) ±15kV using the Air-Gap Method specified in
IEC1000-4-2 (formerly IEC801-2).

ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a number of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report that documents
test setup, methodology, and results.
Human Body Model
Figure 2a shows the Human Body Model, and Figure
2b shows the current waveform it generates when dis-
charged into a low impedance. This model consists of
a 100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of inter-
est, which is then discharged into the test device
through a 1.5kΩ resistor.
±15kV ESD Protection
As with all Maxim devices, ESD-protection structures
are incorporated on all pins to protect against electro-
static discharges encountered during handling and
assembly. The MAX1488E driver outputs have extra
protection against static electricity found in normal

IEC1000-4-2
The IEC1000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and per-
formance of finished equipment; it does not specifically
refer to integrated circuits. The MAX1488E helps you
design equipment that meets Level 4 (the highest level)
of IEC1000-4-2, without additional ESD-protection com-
ponents.
The major difference between tests done using the
Human Body Model and IEC1000-4-2 is higher peak
current in IEC1000-4-2. Because series resistance is
lower in the IEC1000-4-2 ESD test model (Figure 3a),
the ESD withstand voltage measured to this standard is
generally lower than that measured using the Human
Body Model. Figure 3b shows the current waveform for
the ±6kV IEC1000-4-2 Level 4 ESD Contact-Discharge
test.
The Air-Gap test involves approaching the device with
a charged probe. The Contact-Discharge method con-
nects the probe to the device before the probe is ener-
gized.
Machine Model
The Machine Model for ESD testing uses a 200pF stor-
age capacitor and zero-discharge resistance. Its objec-
tive is to mimic the stress caused by contact that
occurs with handling and assembly during manufactur-
ing. Of course, all pins (not just RS-232 inputs and out-
puts) require this protection during manufacturing.
Therefore, the Machine Model is less relevant to the I/O
ports than the Human Body Model and IEC1000-4-2.
__________Applications Information
Use proper layout to ensure other devices on your
board are not damaged in an ESD strike. Currents as
high as 60A can instantaneously pass into the ground,
so it is important to minimize the ground-lead return
path to the power supply. A separate return path to the
power supply is recommended. Trace widths should be
greater than 40 mils. V
CC
and V
EE
must be bypassed
with 0.1µF capacitors as close to the part as possible to
ensure maximum ESD protection.
