Maxim MAX3385E Datasheet
The MAX3385E is a 3 V‑powered EIA/TIA‑232 and V.28/V.24 communications interface offering low power consumption, high data‑rate capability, and robust ESD protection. It operates from a 3.0 V to 5.5 V supply, uses a dual charge‑pump architecture, and provides true RS‑232 voltage levels while drawing only a few hundred microamps in normal operation.
Key features include +15 kV Human‑Body Model ESD protection, a 1 µA shutdown current with receivers still active, guaranteed 250 kbps data rate, 250 µs exit‑shutdown time, and a 6 V/µs slew rate. The device is offered in a 20‑pin SSOP package for commercial (0 °C‑+70 °C) or extended‑industrial (‑40 °C‑+85 °C) temperature ranges.
