MAX3094EESE+T

Overview

The MAX3094EESE+T is a low-power, quad RS-422/RS-485 receiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates from a single +3V to +3.6V supply and supports data rates up to 10Mbps. The device features ±15kV ESD protection via the Human Body Model and ±8kV IEC 1000-4-2 Contact Discharge. It includes a 1nA shutdown mode and guarantees propagation-delay matching within ±10ns across production lots. Packaged in a 16-pin Narrow SOIC (SO-Narrow-16), it functions within an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides robust electrostatic discharge protection for harsh environments
• Ensures precise timing with guaranteed propagation-delay matching between devices
• Supports high-density bus configurations with quarter-unit-load input impedance

Applications

• Telecommunications equipment
• Rugged RS-422/RS-485/RS-423 bus receivers
• Receivers for ESD-sensitive applications
• Level translators

Procurement Notes

Verify that the component matches the exact part number MAX3094EESE+T, specifically confirming the EE suffix indicates the industrial temperature grade (-40°C to +85°C) and the SE suffix denotes the narrow SOIC package. Ensure the source provides valid traceability documentation and confirms compliance with RoHS standards as specified in the manufacturer's datasheet.

Selection Notes

Select this component when designing systems requiring low-power operation at 3.3V with strict timing synchronization needs. The guaranteed propagation-delay matching makes it suitable for multi-drop networks where skew must be minimized. Verify that the application environment requires the specific ±15kV HBM ESD ratings provided by this receiver family.

Part Context

This component belongs to the MAX3093E/MAX3094E series of rugged, low-power quad receivers. It serves as a pin-compatible, low-power upgrade to the industry-standard '34C86. While the MAX3093E operates from a +5V supply, the MAX3094E is optimized for +3.3V operation, sharing identical functional characteristics and package options.

Replacement Considerations

The MAX3093EESE+T is a direct pin-compatible alternative designed for +5V supply systems rather than the 3.3V requirement of the MAX3094E. Other members of the MAX309xE family may offer different voltage tolerances or packaging styles but require verification of electrical compatibility before substitution.
