±15kV ESD-Protected, Quad,
Low-Power RS-232 Line Receiver
_______________General Description
The MAX1489E quad, low-power line receiver is
designed for EIA/TIA-232, EIA/TIA-562, and CCITT V.28
communications in harsh environments. Each receiver
input is protected against ±15kV electrostatic dis-
charge (ESD) shocks. These inputs have a ±25V range
and feature hysteresis and time-domain filtering. The
outputs are TTL and CMOS compatible. The MAX1489E
has a 120kbps guaranteed data rate. Supply current is
typically 350µA.
The MAX1489E is pin compatible with the MC1489,
MC14C89, SN75189, SN75C189, DS1489, and
DS14C89. It is available in 14-pin plastic DIP and SO
packages.

_______________Detailed Description
±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 MAX1489E receiver inputs have extra
protection against static electricity found in normal
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
MAX1489E keeps working without latchup.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways; the
receiver inputs are characterized for protection to the
following:
1) ±15kV using the Human Body Model
2) ±8kV using the Contact Discharge method speci-
fied in IEC1000-4-2 (formerly IEC801-2)
3) ±15kV using the Air-Gap Discharge method speci-
fied in IEC1000-4-2 (formerly IEC801-2).
ESD Test 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.
IEC1000-4-2
The IEC100-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and per-
formance of finished equipment; it does not specifically
refer to integrated circuits. The MAX1489E 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 cur-
rent 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 ±8kV
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 connects
the probe to the device before the probe is energized.

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 through the
ground pin, 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
must be
bypassed with 0.1µF capacitors as close to the part as
possible to ensure maximum ESD protection.
