MAX13342EETD+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13342EETD+T is a dual, low-power RS-485/RS-422 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. (Maxim Integrated). It operates from a single 3.0 V to 5.5 V supply and supports data rates up to 25 Mbps. The device features fail-safe circuitry that ensures a high logic state at the receiver input when the bus is idle or disconnected. It includes thermal shutdown protection and current limiting for short-circuit protection on both transmit outputs and receive inputs. The component is housed in an 8-TSSOP package with an exposed pad.
