MAX14828AWA+T

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The MAX14828AWA+T is a high-performance, isolated CAN transceiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc. under the Maxim Integrated brand. It integrates an isolated DC-DC converter and a CAN transceiver in a single package, providing galvanic isolation between the controller side and the bus side. The device supports data rates up to 5 Mbps and offers robust protection against electrical faults. Key specifications include a wide operating supply voltage range of 2.7V to 5.5V for the logic interface and a separate supply for the isolated side. It features thermal shutdown and short-circuit protection for the driver outputs, ensuring reliable operation in harsh automotive and industrial environments.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'AWA+T' corresponds to the SOIC-Wide-8 package and tape-and-reel quantity as defined in the official datasheet. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's declaration. Check for any recent lifecycle notices regarding obsolescence or last-time buy dates directly from Analog Devices documentation before finalizing procurement plans.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when system design requires integrated isolation without external magnetics. Ensure the application environment stays within the specified temperature range and that the required CAN bit rate does not exceed 5 Mbps. Verify that the PCB layout accommodates the SOIC-Wide-8 footprint and maintains adequate creepage distances for the isolation barrier rating specified in the datasheet.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX148xx family of isolated CAN transceivers designed for demanding applications. It complements other devices like the MAX14878 and MAX14838 by offering a compact solution with built-in isolation power generation.
