MAX13087ECPA

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13087ECPA is a +5.0V, full-duplex RS-422/RS-485 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates within a supply voltage range of 4.75V to 5.25V and supports data rates up to 16Mb/s. The device features ±15kV ESD protection on I/O pins, true fail-safe receivers, and hot-swap input structures on DE and RE pins. It is housed in an 8-pin PDIP package and functions reliably across an extended temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Integrated hot-swap input structures on driver enable (DE) and receiver enable (RE) pins to prevent bus contention during system insertion or removal.
• True fail-safe receiver design ensures the receiver output defaults to a high logic state when differential inputs are open or unconnected.
• Enhanced slew-rate limiting on the driver output reduces electromagnetic interference (EMI) and minimizes signal reflections on long transmission lines.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial automation networks requiring robust communication under electrically noisy conditions.
• Building automation systems utilizing RS-485 multi-drop configurations for sensor and actuator connectivity.
• Motor drive control interfaces where hot-pluggable module replacement is necessary without disrupting the main bus.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official manufacturer documentation to confirm package type and temperature grade. Ensure the component matches the required interface standards and electrical characteristics for the target application environment before integration.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when full-duplex communication is required alongside hot-swap capability. Compare against half-duplex alternatives if bidirectional single-wire operation suffices. Confirm that the 16Mb/s speed rating aligns with the network's timing requirements and cable length constraints.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX1308x series of +5V RS-422/RS-485 transceivers. It shares functional similarities with the MAX13087EESA+ but differs in physical packaging, offering a through-hole DIP option suitable for prototyping or legacy board designs compared to surface-mount variants.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX13087EESA+ serves as a direct functional equivalent with identical electrical specifications, differing only in the SOIC-8 surface-mount package. Verify pinout compatibility and thermal management requirements when substituting between package types.
