7.2.2.2 ESD Protection

MAX202 devices have standard ESD protection structures incorporated on all pins to protect against electrostatic discharges encountered during assembly and handling. In addition, the RS-232 bus pins (driver outputs and receiver inputs) of these devices have an extra level of ESD protection. Advanced ESD structures were designed to successfully protect these bus pins against ESD discharge of ±15kV when powered down.
