MAX13053ASA+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13053ASA+T is a high-speed CAN transceiver from the MAX1305x family, designed for industrial applications requiring robust fault protection. It operates with a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V and supports data rates up to 1Mbps. The device features ±80V fault protection on bus lines, exceeding ISO11898 specifications with an input common-mode range greater than ±12V. It includes silent mode functionality to disable the transmitter while maintaining receiver monitoring, and provides a reference output for biasing older CAN controllers. ESD protection meets IEC 61000-4-2 standards at ±8kV contact discharge.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides extended ±80V fault protection on CANH and CANL pins for harsh industrial environments
• Features silent mode operation that disables the transmitter while allowing continuous bus monitoring via RXD
• Includes a dedicated reference output pin to bias differential comparators in legacy CAN controllers
• Offers dominant timeout functionality to prevent bus locking if TXD remains low for over 1ms

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• DeviceNet nodes requiring high-speed communication
• Medium- and heavy-duty truck systems
• Industrial network applications with overvoltage requirements

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging when sourcing this component. Confirm the 'A' designation corresponds to the -40°C to +125°C automotive/industrial temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-pin SO package. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any updates to electrical characteristics or ordering information before finalizing procurement.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select the MAX13053ASA+T when silent mode is required to isolate the transmitter without affecting bus reception. Choose this part over the MAX13050 or MAX13052 if slope control or split pin stabilization is not needed. Verify that the application requires a fixed 5V logic interface rather than the separate VCC2 supply found in the MAX13054. Ensure the design benefits from the integrated reference output for interfacing with older controller architectures.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX13050/MAX13052/MAX13053/MAX13054 family of industry-standard high-speed CAN transceivers. These devices are pin-for-pin compatible, sharing the same 8-pin SO package footprint. The MAX13053 variant specifically differentiates itself by offering silent mode and a reference output, distinguishing it from the standard models and those with slope control or dual-supply capabilities.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The TJA1050 and AMIS-30660 are listed as pin-for-pin replacements for the MAX13053 series. Verify functional equivalence regarding silent mode behavior and reference output specifications before substitution.
