MAX202E–MAX213E,
MAX232E/MAX241E
±15kV ESD-Protected,
5V RS-232 Transceivers
General Description
The MAX202E-MAX213E, MAX232E, and MAX241E are
a family of RS-232 and V.28 transceivers with high ±15kV
ESD HBM protection and integrated charge pump circuitry
for single +5V supply operation. The various combinations
of features are outlined in the Selector Guide. The drivers
and receivers for all ten devices meet all EIA/TIA-232E
and CCITT V.28 specifications at data rates up to 120kbps
when loaded.
The MAX211E/MAX213E/MAX241E are available in 28-pin
SO and SSOP packages. The MAX202E/MAX232E come
in 16-pin TSSOP, narrow SO, wide SO, and DIP packages.
The MAX203E comes in a 20-pin DIP/SO package, and
needs no external charge-pump capacitors. The MAX205E
comes in a 24-pin wide DIP package, and also eliminates
external charge-pump capacitors.

Detailed Description
The MAX202E–MAX213E, MAX232E/MAX241E consist
of three sections: charge-pump voltage converters, drivers (transmitters), and receivers. These E versions provide extra protection against ESD. They survive ±15kV
discharges to the RS-232 inputs and outputs, tested
using the Human Body Model. When tested according
to IEC1000-4-2, they survive ±8kV contact-discharges
and ±15kV air-gap discharges. The rugged E versions
are intended for use in harsh environments or applications where the RS-232 connection is frequently changed
(such as notebook computers). The standard (non“E”) MAX202, MAX203, MAX205–MAX208, MAX211,
MAX213, MAX232, and MAX241 are recommended for
applications where cost is critical.
+5V to ±10V Dual Charge-Pump
Voltage Converter
The +5V to ±10V conversion is performed by dual chargepump voltage converters (Figure 4). The first chargepump converter uses capacitor C1 to double the +5V into
+10V, storing the +10V on the output filter capacitor, C3.
www.analog.com
The second uses C2 to invert the +10V into -10V, storing
the -10V on the V- output filter capacitor, C4.
In shutdown mode, V+ is internally connected to VCC by
a 1kΩ pull-down resistor, and V- is internally connected to
ground by a 1kΩ pull up resistor.
RS-232 Drivers
With VCC = 5V, the typical driver output voltage swing is
±8V when loaded with a nominal 5kΩ RS-232 receiver.
The output swing is guaranteed to meet EIA/TIA-232E
and V.28 specifications that call for ±5V minimum output
levels under worst-case conditions. These include a 3kΩ
load, minimum VCC, and maximum operating temperature. The open-circuit output voltage swings from (V+ 0.6V) to V-.
Input thresholds are CMOS/TTL compatible. The unused
drivers’ inputs on the MAX205E–MAX208E, MAX211E,
MAX213E, and MAX241E can be left unconnected
because 400kΩ pull up resistors to VCC are included onchip. Since all drivers invert, the pull up resistors force the
unused drivers’ outputs low. The MAX202E, MAX203E,
and MAX232E do not have pull up resistors on the
transmitter inputs.

Figure 4. Charge-Pump Diagram
When in low-power shutdown mode, the MAX205E/
MAX206E/MAX211E/MAX213E/MAX241E driver outputs
are turned off and draw only leakage currents—even if
they are back-driven with voltages between 0V and12V.
Below -0.5V in shutdown, the transmitter output is diodeclamped to ground with a 1kΩ series impedance.
RS-232 Receivers
The receivers convert the RS-232 signals to CMOS-logic
output levels. The guaranteed 0.8V and 2.4V receiver
input thresholds are significantly tighter than the ±3V
thresholds required by the EIA/TIA-232E specification.
This allows the receiver inputs to respond to TTL/CMOSlogic levels, as well as RS-232 levels.
The guaranteed 0.8V input low threshold ensures that
receivers shorted to ground have a logic 1 output. The
5kΩ input resistance to ground ensures that a receiver
with its input left open will also have a logic 1 output.
Receiver inputs have approximately 0.5V hysteresis. This
provides clean output transitions, even with slow rise/falltime signals with moderate amounts of noise and ringing.
In shutdown, the MAX213E’s R4 and R5 receivers have
no hysteresis.
www.analog.com
Shutdown and Enable Control
(MAX205E/MAX206E/MAX211E/
MAX213E/MAX241E)
In shutdown mode, the charge pumps are turned off, V+
is pulled down to VCC, V- is pulled to ground, and the
transmitter outputs are disabled. This reduces supply
current typically to 1μA (15μA for the MAX213E). The
time required to exit shutdown is under 1ms, as shown
in Figure 5.
Receivers
All MAX213E receivers, except R4 and R5, are put into a
high-impedance state in shutdown mode (see Tables 1a
and 1b). The MAX213E’s R4 and R5 receivers still function in shutdown mode. These two awake-in-shutdown
receivers can monitor external activity while maintaining
minimal power consumption.
The enable control is used to put the receiver outputs
into a high-impedance state, to allow wire-OR connection
of two EIA/TIA-232E ports (or ports of different types) at
the UART. It has no effect on the RS-232 drivers or the
charge pumps.
Note: The enable control pin is active low for the
MAX211E/MAX241E (EN), but is active high for the
MAX213E (EN). The shutdown control pin is active

(SHDN), but is active low for the MAX213E (SHDN).
MAX211E
The MAX213E’s receiver propagation delay is typically
0.5μs in normal operation. In shutdown mode, propagation delay increases to 4μs for both rising and falling
transitions. The MAX213E’s receiver inputs have approximately 0.5V hysteresis, except in shutdown, when receivers R4 and R5 have no hysteresis.

±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 driver outputs and receiver inputs have extra
protection against static electricity. Maxim’s engineers
developed state-of-the-art structures to protect these
pins against ESD of ±15kV without damage. The ESD
structures withstand high ESD in all states: normal
operation, shutdown, and powered down. After an ESD
event, Maxim’s E versions keep working without latchup,
whereas competing RS-232 products can latch and must
be powered down to remove latchup.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways; the transmitter outputs and receiver inputs of this product family
are characterized for protection to the following limits:
1) ±15kV using the Human Body Model
2) ±8kV using the contact-discharge method specified in
IEC1000-4-2
3) ±15kV using IEC1000-4-2’s air-gap method.
ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.
Contact Maxim for a reliability report that documents test
set-up, test methodology, and test results.
Human Body Model
Figure 6a shows the Human Body Model, and Figure
6b shows the current waveform it generates when discharged into a low impedance. This model consists of a
100pF capacitor charged to the ESD voltage of interest,
which is then discharged into the test device through a
1.5kΩ resistor.

Figure 7a. IEC1000-4-2 ESD Test Model
IEC1000-4-2
The IEC1000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and performance of finished equipment; it does not specifically
refer to integrated circuits. The MAX202E/MAX203E–
MAX213E, MAX232E/MAX241E help you design equipment that meets level 4 (the highest level) of IEC10004-2, without the need for additional ESD-protection
components.
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 model. Hence, the ESD withstand
voltage measured to IEC1000-4-2 is generally lower than
that measured using the Human Body Model. Figure 7b
shows the current waveform for the 8kV IEC1000-4-2
level-four ESD contact-discharge test.

The air-gap test involves approaching the device with a
charged probe. The contact-discharge method connects
the probe to the device before the probe is energized.
Machine Model
The Machine Model for ESD tests all pins using a 200pF
storage capacitor and zero discharge resistance. Its
objective is to emulate the stress caused by contact that
occurs with handling and assembly during manufacturing.
Of course, all pins require this protection during manufacturing, not just RS-232 inputs and outputs. Therefore,
after PC board assembly, the Machine Model is less relevant to I/O ports.

Applications Information
V+ and V- as Power Supplies
Capacitor Selection
The capacitor type used for C1–C4 is not critical for
proper operation. The MAX202E, MAX206–MAX208E,
MAX211E, and MAX213E require 0.1μF capacitors, and
the MAX232E and MAX241E require 1μF capacitors,
although in all cases capacitors up to 10μF can be used
without harm. Ceramic, aluminum-electrolytic, or tantalum
capacitors are suggested for the 1μF capacitors, and
ceramic dielectrics are suggested for the 0.1μF capacitors. When using the minimum recommended capacitor values, make sure the capacitance value does not
degrade excessively as the operating temperature varies.
If in doubt, use capacitors with a larger (e.g., 2x) nominal
value. The capacitors’ effective series resistance (ESR),
which usually rises at low temperatures, influences the
amount of ripple on V+ and V-.
Use larger capacitors (up to 10μF) to reduce the output impedance at V+ and V-. This can be useful when
“stealing” power from V+ or from V-. The MAX203E and
MAX205E have internal charge-pump capacitors.
Bypass VCC to ground with at least 0.1μF. In applications
sensitive to power-supply noise generated by the charge
pumps, decouple VCC to ground with a capacitor the
same size as (or larger than) the charge-pump capacitors
(C1–C4).
A small amount of power can be drawn from V+ and V-,
although this will reduce both driver output swing and
noise margins. Increasing the value of the charge-pump
capacitors (up to 10μF) helps maintain performance when
power is drawn from V+ or V-.
Driving Multiple Receivers
Each transmitter is designed to drive a single receiver.
Transmitters can be paralleled to drive multiple receivers.
Driver Outputs when Exiting Shutdown
The driver outputs display no ringing or undesirable
transients as they come out of shutdown.
High Data Rates
These transceivers maintain the RS-232 ±5.0V minimum
driver output voltages at data rates of over 120kbps. For
data rates above 120kbps, refer to the Transmitter Output
Voltage vs. Load Capacitance graphs in the Typical
Operating Characteristics. Communication at these high
rates is easier if the capacitive loads on the transmitters
are small; i.e., short cables are best.
