SP3222E Datasheet, PDF (14/20 Pages) Sipex Corporation – True +3.0V to +5.5V RS-232 Transceivers

For the Human Body Model, the current
limiting resistor (R_S) and the source capacitor
(C )
S
are
1.5kΩ
an
100pF,
respectively.
For
IEC-1000-4-2, the current limiting resistor (R_S)
and the source capacitor (C_S) are 330Ω an 150pF,
respectively.
The higher C_S value and lower R_S value in the
IEC1000-4-2 model are more stringent than the
Human Body Model. The larger storage
capacitor injects a higher voltage to the test
point when SW2 is switched on. The lower
current limiting resistor increases the current
charge onto the test point.
