General Description

The MAX3386E 3V-powered EIA/TIA-232 and V.28/V.24
is a communications interface with low power require­ments, high data-rate capabilities, and enhanced elec­trostatic discharge (ESD) protection. The MAX3386E
has two receivers and three transmitters. All RS-232
inputs and outputs are protected to ±15kV using the
IEC 1000-4-2 Air-Gap Discharge method, ±8kV using the
IEC 1000-4-2 Contact Discharge method, and ±15kV
using the Human Body Model.

A proprietary low-dropout transmitter output stage
enables true RS-232 performance from a +3.0V to +5.5V
supply with a dual charge pump. The charge pump
requires only four small 0.1µF capacitors for operation
from a +3.3V supply. The MAX3386E is capable of
running at data rates up to 250kbps while maintaining
RS-232 compliant output levels.

The MAX3386E has a unique VLpin that allows interop­eration in mixed-logic voltage systems. Both input and
output logic levels are pin programmable through the
VLpin. The MAX3386E is available in a space-saving
TSSOP package.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional
operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to
absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Note 1: V+ and V- can have maximum magnitudes of 7V, but their absolute difference cannot exceed 13V.
