MAX13081EASA+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13081EASA+T is a full-duplex RS-422/RS-485 transceiver featuring one driver and one receiver. It operates on a single +5.0V supply (4.5V to 5.5V) with a typical supply current of 1.8mA. The device supports data rates up to 250kbps using reduced slew-rate drivers to minimize EMI. It includes ±15kV ESD protection, fail-safe circuitry ensuring a logic-high output when inputs are open or shorted, and hot-swap capability on the DE and RE pins. It is available in an 8-pin SO package.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T' indicates tape-and-reel packaging rather than tube packaging. Confirm the 'E' designation corresponds to the extended temperature range (-40°C to +85°C). Ensure the '+' suffix confirms lead-free and RoHS compliance status before finalizing procurement orders.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring full-duplex RS-485 communication at speeds up to 250kbps. It is suitable for environments where bus insertion during power-up must not cause false transitions. Verify that the 8-pin SO package dimensions fit the target PCB layout constraints.
