MAX13084EASA

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13084EASA is a low-power, full-duplex RS-422/RS-485 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates with a single +5V supply and supports data rates up to 500 kbps. The device features 15 kV ESD protection on all pins and includes fail-safe circuitry to ensure a high logic state at the receiver input when the bus is idle. Packaged in an 8-SOIC surface-mount format, it functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C while consuming only 1.8 mA of quiescent current.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Full-duplex communication capability supporting both RS-422 and RS-485 protocols simultaneously.
• Integrated 15 kV electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection across all signal pins for enhanced robustness.
• Fail-safe receiver design that defaults to a high logic state during idle or open-bus conditions.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial automation networks requiring reliable half or full-duplex serial communication.
• Building automation systems utilizing RS-485 multi-drop configurations.
• Point-to-point links in instrumentation and control environments.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation, as package variations exist within the series. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times through authorized distributors. Ensure the selected variant matches the required thermal and electrical specifications for the target application environment.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component for applications requiring full-duplex operation over standard RS-422/RS-485 lines. Compare against the MAX13084EESA+ variant if surface-mount packaging is preferred over the standard tube configuration. Evaluate power consumption requirements against the 1.8 mA quiescent current specification.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX13084E family of high-speed transceivers designed for robust serial communication. It complements other Maxim Integrated interface solutions by providing full-duplex performance with integrated protection features suitable for harsh industrial environments.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX13084EESA+ serves as a direct pin-compatible alternative offering identical electrical characteristics in a standard tube package. Verify package type compatibility before substitution.
