MAX2077CTK+

Overview

The MAX2077CTK+ is an octal-channel ultrasound front-end integrated circuit manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates on a single 3.3 V supply with a current consumption of 11 mA and features a noise figure of 2.4 dB. The device is housed in a 68-TQFN (10x10) package with exposed pad, suitable for surface-mount installation within a temperature range of 0°C to +70°C. Classified as an RF Front End under the MAX207 series, it supports MSL level 3 moisture sensitivity and complies with RoHS3 standards.

Feature Summary

• Integrates eight independent channels for comprehensive ultrasound signal processing
• Designed specifically for medical ultrasound imaging and sonar applications
• Operates efficiently on a single low-voltage power supply

Applications

• Medical ultrasound imaging systems
• Sonar equipment

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized distributors or direct manufacturer channels due to limited availability status. Confirm that the specific suffix matches the required 68-TQFN package variant. Ensure compliance with RoHS3 regulations and check for any regional distribution restrictions before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing compact ultrasound transceivers requiring high channel density. The 68-TQFN footprint offers space efficiency for dense array configurations. Verify thermal management requirements given the exposed pad design and operating temperature limits to ensure reliable performance in enclosed medical devices.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX207 family of specialized analog circuits developed by Maxim Integrated, now part of Analog Devices. These components are engineered to simplify the design of complex ultrasound systems by integrating multiple front-end functions into a single chip, reducing board space and component count compared to discrete solutions.

Replacement Considerations

The MAX2078CTK+ serves as a related alternative within the same product line, offering similar form factors but including additional CW Doppler mixer capabilities.
