MAX13053ASA-T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13053ASA-T is a high-speed CAN transceiver from the MAX1305x family, designed for industrial networks requiring extended fault protection. It operates at data rates up to 1Mbps and features ±80V fault protection on CANH and CANL pins. The device includes a silent mode that disables the transmitter while allowing bus monitoring via the RXD output. It provides a reference output (REF) set to 0.5 x VCC for biasing older CAN controllers. The component supports an input common-mode range greater than ±12V and offers ±8kV ESD protection per IEC 61000-4-2. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is housed in an 8-pin SO package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing components. Confirm the 'A' designation corresponds to the -40°C to +125°C automotive/industrial temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with the required logic supply voltage levels before finalizing procurement specifications.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this model when silent mode functionality is required to disable transmission without affecting reception. The integrated reference output simplifies interfacing with legacy CAN controllers lacking differential comparators. Verify that the ±80V fault protection meets the system's overvoltage requirements compared to standard ±40V alternatives.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX13050/MAX13052/MAX13053/MAX13054 series of industry-standard high-speed CAN transceivers. These devices are pin-for-pin compatible and share core features like ±80V fault protection and high common-mode rejection. The MAX13053 variant specifically adds silent mode and a reference output distinct from the other members of the family.
