The MAX3160CAP+T is a multiprotocol transceiver from Analog Devices/Maxim Integrated, housed in a 20-pin SSOP package. It supports RS-232 and RS-485/RS-422 interfaces with a supply voltage range of +3.0V to +5.5V. The device features two drivers and two receivers, operating at data rates up to 250kbps in slew-rate limited mode and up to 1Mbps for RS-232 or 10Mbps for RS-485 when FAST mode is enabled. It includes an integrated dual charge pump, 1µA shutdown current, and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
Verify that the component matches the specific ordering suffix 'G002' against official manufacturer documentation, as standard datasheets typically list 'MAX3160CAP+'. Confirm the package type is 20-SSOP and the temperature grade is commercial (0°C to +70°C) if the 'E' extended grade variant is not required. Ensure lead-free/RoHS compliance aligns with project specifications.
Select this component when a single IC must support both RS-232 and RS-485/422 protocols via pin programming. It is suitable for applications requiring low power consumption with a 1µA shutdown mode. Consider the MAX3161 or MAX3162 if simultaneous independent operation of both protocols or separate I/O pins are necessary instead of shared pin multiplexing.
This part belongs to the MAX3160/MAX3161/MAX3162 family of multiprotocol transceivers designed for flexible communication bus architectures. The MAX3160 specifically offers a flow-through pinout optimized for board layout efficiency in space-constrained designs. It serves as a bridge between microprocessor logic levels and serial communication standards.
Public confirmed substitute part numbers include XR3160EIUTR-F from Exar/MaxLinear, which provides similar RS-232/RS-485/422 multiprotocol functionality in a 20-SSOP package.
