MAX3761EEP+T

Overview

The MAX3761EEP+T is a low-power limiting amplifier designed for local area network applications. It operates at data rates up to 622Mbps and features chatter-free power detection. The device provides 60dB of voltage gain with a supply voltage range of 4.5V to 5.5V. It draws 25mA of operating current and dissipates 591mW of power. The component functions within a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is housed in a 20-pin QSOP package.

Feature Summary

• Chatter-free power detection capability
• Low-power consumption design
• Optimized for LAN signal processing

Applications

• Local Area Network (LAN) systems
• Fiber optic receiver front-ends
• SONET/SDH supporting circuits
• ATM network interfaces

Procurement Notes

This component is officially discontinued by the manufacturer. Verification of availability requires checking authorized distributors for remaining stock or surplus channels. Engineering teams should initiate replacement part selection immediately due to end-of-life status.

Selection Notes

Designers requiring this specific gain and speed profile must evaluate alternative limiting amplifiers from the same family or newer generations. Ensure that pin compatibility and thermal characteristics of any substitute match the original QSOP-20 footprint and power dissipation requirements.

Part Context

The MAX3761 belongs to the Maxim Integrated fiber optic transceiver support circuit portfolio. It serves as a critical interface between photodetectors and digital logic in optical networking equipment. The EEPROM suffix indicates a specific factory trim configuration for gain and bandwidth optimization.

Replacement Considerations

No official confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Engineers must perform manual cross-referencing with current Analog Devices product lines.
