damage. The ESD structures withstand high ESD in all
states: normal operation, shutdown, and powered
down. After an ESD event, the MAX6816/MAX6817/
MAX6818 keep working without latchup, whereas other
solutions can latch and must be powered down to
remove latchup.
ESD protection can be tested in various ways; these
products are characterized for protection to the follow-
ing limits:
1) ±15kV using the Human Body Model
2) ±8kV using the Contact-Discharge method specified
in IEC1000-4-2
3) ±15kV using IEC1000-4-2’s Air-Gap method.
ESD Test Conditions
ESD performance depends on a variety of conditions.

Figure 7b. IEC1000-4-2 ESD Generator Current Waveform
Human Body Model
Figure 6a shows the Human Body Model and Figure 6b
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 IEC1000-4-2 standard covers ESD testing and per-
formance of finished equipment; it does not specifically
refer to integrated circuits. The MAX6816/
MAX6817/MAX6818 help you design equipment that
