MAX13088EASA+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13088EASA+T is a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver from the MAX13080E family, manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates on a single +5.0V supply (4.5V to 5.5V) and supports data rates up to 16Mbps with unrestricted driver slew rates. The device features ±15kV ESD protection on I/O pins, true fail-safe receiver circuitry, and hot-swap capability on DE and RE inputs. It is housed in an 8-pin SO package and operates within the -40°C to +85°C temperature range.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Hot-swap input structures prevent false transitions during bus insertion or power-up
• True fail-safe receiver guarantees logic-high output when inputs are open or shorted
• Unrestricted driver slew rate enables high-speed transmission up to 16Mbps

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Utility Meters
• Industrial Control Systems
• Profibus Networks

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix against official documentation to confirm package type and temperature range. Ensure the component source matches the manufacturer's authorized distribution channels to avoid counterfeit parts. Cross-reference the ordering information table for exact availability status.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring half-duplex communication at speeds up to 16Mbps. It is suitable for environments needing robust ESD protection and fail-safe behavior without the need for pin-selectable duplex modes found in other family members.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX13080E–MAX13089E series of +5.0V, ±15kV ESD-protected, fail-safe, hot-swap RS-485 transceivers. The MAX13088E specifically provides half-duplex operation with high-speed capabilities, distinguishing it from lower-speed variants like the MAX13082E or full-duplex models like the MAX13080E.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX13082E serves as a direct functional substitute within the same family, offering identical half-duplex operation but limited to a maximum data rate of 250kbps due to reduced slew-rate drivers.
