MAX13414EESA+

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX13414EESA+ is a half-duplex RS-485 transceiver featuring an internal low-dropout regulator (LDO) and fail-safe circuitry. It operates from a supply voltage range of +6V to +28V, generating an internal +5V ±10% rail. The device supports a maximum data rate of 500kbps with slew-rate limiting to minimize EMI. It includes one driver and one receiver in an 8-pin SO package with an exposed paddle. Fail-safe guarantees a logic-high receiver output when inputs are open or shorted.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Internal LDO enables operation from unregulated supplies up to 28V
• Fail-safe circuitry ensures high receiver output during bus faults
• Slew-rate limited drivers reduce EMI and signal reflections

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Isolated RS-485 interfaces
• Utility meters
• Industrial equipment
• Telecommunications equipment

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the component against official Analog Devices documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and electrical specifications. Ensure the ordering suffix matches the required package type and temperature range. Cross-reference datasheet parameters for isolation requirements and power dissipation limits before integration.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this model for applications requiring wide input voltage ranges and integrated regulation. The MAX13414E variant specifically provides fail-safe functionality and reduced slew rates suitable for noise-sensitive environments. Verify that the 500kbps speed meets system timing requirements compared to full-speed alternatives.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX13410E–MAX13415E family of isolated RS-485 transceivers. It shares the same internal LDO architecture and 8-pin SO-EP package as siblings like the MAX13410E and MAX13415E. Differentiation within the series is determined by data rate capabilities and specific control features such as AutoDirection or fail-safe logic.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

The MAX13410E serves as a compatible alternative within the same series, sharing identical pinouts and fail-safe characteristics. Both devices utilize the 8-pin SO-EP package and support the same +6V to +28V supply range.
