description/ordering information
The MAX207 consists of five line drivers, three line receivers, and a dual charge-pump circuit with
15-kV ESD
protection pin to pin (serial-port connection pins, including GND). The device meets the requirements of
TIA/EIA-232-F and provides the electrical interface between an asynchronous communication controller and
the serial-port connector. The charge pump and four small external capacitors allow operation from a single 5-V
supply. The devices operate at data signaling rates up to 120 kbit/s and a maximum of 30-V/
s driver output
slew rate.

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 under "recommended operating conditions" is not
implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
NOTES:
1. All voltages are with respect to network GND.
2. Maximum power dissipation is a function of TJ(max),
JA, and TA. The maximum allowable power dissipation at any allowable
ambient temperature is PD = (TJ(max) - TA)/
JA. Operating at the absolute maximum TJ of 150
C can affect reliability.
3. The package thermal impedance is calculated in accordance with JESD 51-7.
