MAX13082EAPA

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13082EAPA is a +5.0V, half-duplex RS-485/RS-422 transceiver in an 8-pin PDIP package. It supports data rates up to 250 kbps with a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V. The device features ±15kV ESD protection and fail-safe receivers that ensure a high logic state when inputs are open. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and draws low quiescent current.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Provides robust communication via RS-485 and RS-422 standards
• Includes ±15kV human-body model ESD protection on bus pins
• Ensures data integrity with fail-safe receiver circuitry
• Supports hot-swap operations without damaging the device

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable serial communication
• Building automation and security networks
• Metering applications such as electricity and gas meters
• Point-to-point or multi-drop communication links

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix for the MAX13082EAPA to confirm package type and RoHS compliance status. Some variants may be marked non-compliant or discontinued. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as stock levels fluctuate. Ensure the selected part matches the required operating temperature range and pin configuration for your PCB layout.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring +5V operation with moderate data speeds up to 250kbps. It is suitable where high ESD immunity and fail-safe functionality are critical. Compare against the MAX13082EESA+ if surface-mount packaging is preferred instead of through-hole DIP. Consider power consumption requirements as it offers low quiescent current typical of the series.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This transceiver belongs to the Maxim Integrated MAX1308x family of low-power, +5V RS-485/RS-422 interface devices. The family includes various packages such as SOIC and TSSOP. These components are designed for harsh industrial environments, offering high noise immunity and protection against electrostatic discharge and hot-swap events.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX13082EESA+ serves as a surface-mount equivalent within the same functional family. Verify pin compatibility and package dimensions before substitution. Other members of the MAX1308x series may offer different data rates or package options but share similar electrical characteristics.
