MAX33076EASE+T

Overview

The MAX33076EASE+T is a high-speed quad RS-422/RS-485 receiver manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. It operates within a +3.3V or +5.0V power supply range and supports data rates of up to 35Mbps. The device features ±25V common-mode rejection, ±65V fault protection, and ±25kV ESD human-body model protection on the data lines. It utilizes true fail-safe circuitry to ensure outputs go high during open-circuit or shorted conditions. Packaged in an 8-pin SOIC (EASE) format, it functions across a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Feature Summary

• Integrated ±65V fault protection safeguards against line shorts and damage to local power supplies.
• True fail-safe design ensures high output states when receivers are disconnected or inputs are shorted.
• High ±25kV ESD HBM protection on data lines prevents damage from electrostatic discharge events.

Applications

• Motor controllers
• Telecommunications equipment
• CNC machine tools

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'EASE' confirms the 8-pin SOIC package and lead-free status. Confirm the '+T' designation indicates tape-and-reel packaging for automated assembly. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts designed for standard MAX3095/MAX3096 pinouts.

Selection Notes

Select this component when evaluating robust RS-422/RS-485 reception in electrically noisy environments requiring extended fault tolerance. Verify that the required data rate does not exceed 35Mbps and that the system voltage aligns with the specified 3.3V or 5.0V operating ranges.

Part Context

This part belongs to the MAX33076 series of high-speed quad receivers. It serves as a direct pin-compatible replacement for industry-standard MAX3095 and MAX3096 devices, facilitating upgrades without redesigning printed circuit boards while offering enhanced electrical protection specifications.

Replacement Considerations

The MAX33076EASE+T is explicitly documented as pin-compatible with the MAX3095 and MAX3096 receivers. These parts serve as confirmed functional substitutes for legacy designs requiring quad RS-422/RS-485 reception.
