Is it normal for a MAX232 chip to test positive for continuity between T1OUT and R1IN when powered?

I have noticed, on my MAX232 chip, that when the IC is powered, a continuity test between the T1OUT and R1IN pins tests positive. But not when it is not powered. Is this normal?

Is it possible to use a MAX232 to convert 0 to 5V PWM to 0 to 12V PWM to input to a motor driver requiring 0 to 12V PWM logic?

I'd like to drive a 16kHz PWM signal at 0.5mA into the input of a motor driver expecting logic levels of 0V for LOW and 12V for HIGH, and expecting a PWM signal around this frequency. The PWM signal ...
