MAX13411EESA+

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13411EESA+ is a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver featuring an integrated low-dropout regulator (LDO) and industry-compatible pinouts. It operates from an unregulated supply voltage ranging from +6V to +28V, with the internal LDO generating a stable +5V ±10% power supply for internal circuitry. The device supports data rates up to 16Mbps without slew-rate limiting and provides enhanced ESD protection of ±14kV on the A and B pins via the Human Body Model. Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC with an exposed paddle for improved thermal dissipation, it functions reliably across an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity by checking manufacturer markings and datasheet alignment. Confirm package integrity and absence of physical damage before integration. Ensure supply chain sources provide valid traceability documentation. Validate that the specific ordering suffix matches the required lead-free and RoHS-compliant specifications for your application standards.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this model when designing isolated RS-485 networks requiring high-speed data transmission up to 16Mbps. It is suitable for applications needing an integrated power regulation solution to simplify board layout. Choose this variant over slew-rate limited versions if maximum throughput is prioritized over electromagnetic interference reduction. Ensure the system design accommodates the specific ESD protection levels provided by this full-speed configuration.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX13410E–MAX13415E family of half-duplex RS-485 transceivers optimized for isolated applications. While sharing the same internal LDO architecture and operating voltage range, this specific part differs from its siblings by offering full-speed data rates without slew-rate limiting. Unlike variants such as the MAX13412E, it lacks AutoDirection control but maintains standard DE and RE pin functionality for flexible interface control.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements within the same series include the MAX13411EESA+T for tape-and-reel packaging. Other family members like the MAX13410E or MAX13412E share the same package and LDO features but differ in data rate capabilities or control logic.
