MAX1481EUB

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX1481EUB is a low-power, full-duplex RS-422/RS-485 transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It features one driver and one receiver within a compact 10-pin uMAX or uSOP surface-mount package. The device operates on a single 4.75V to 5.25V supply and supports data rates up to 250kbps. It includes a receiver input hysteresis of 70mV for noise immunity and functions reliably across an extended temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports full-duplex communication protocols including RS-422 and RS-485 standards
• Provides high noise immunity through integrated receiver input hysteresis
• Designed for low-power applications with efficient single-supply operation

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring reliable serial communication
• Building automation networks utilizing RS-485 bus topologies
• Portable instrumentation equipment needing compact interface solutions

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EUB' to confirm the 10-pin uMAX/uSOP package type and commercial temperature grade. Ensure compatibility with standard 5V logic levels and check RoHS compliance status for environmental regulations. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as lead times may vary based on manufacturing schedules.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when full-duplex capability is required for point-to-point or multi-drop connections. It is suitable for designs prioritizing small footprint over higher speed capabilities. Compare against half-duplex alternatives if bidirectional signaling on a single pair is sufficient for the application requirements.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX1481-MAX1486 family of robust interface transceivers. It shares pinout compatibility with other devices in the series, facilitating design upgrades. The MAX1481 specifically targets full-duplex applications, distinguishing it from half-duplex variants like the MAX1480.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the MAX1481EUB+ for lead-free compliance. Other family members such as the MAX1486EUB offer similar functionality with potentially different speed or feature sets.
