SP336EEY-L/TR

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The SP336EEY-L/TR is a multiprotocol transceiver from MaxLinear, supporting RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 protocols. It operates within a supply voltage range of 3.135 V to 5.25 V, with typical operation at 3.3 V or 5 V. The device features four transmitters and four receivers, achieving data rates up to 10 Mb/s. It is housed in a TSSOP-28 package and includes shutdown functionality. Operating temperatures span from -40°C to +85°C, with power dissipation rated at 657 mW.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Feature Summary

• Supports multiple serial communication standards including RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485.
• Integrates four drivers and four receivers for versatile interface configurations.
• Includes a shutdown mode to reduce power consumption during idle periods.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring multi-protocol connectivity
• Portable equipment needing low-power serial communication
• Embedded systems utilizing mixed RS-232 and RS-485 networks

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L/TR' indicates tape and reel packaging when sourcing. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation as required by project specifications. Ensure the TSSOP-28 footprint matches the design layout before procurement.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a single IC must handle both differential (RS-422/485) and single-ended (RS-232) signaling. The 10 Mb/s rate suits high-speed applications compared to standard 250 kb/s devices. Verify that the 3.135 V minimum voltage aligns with the system's lowest operating condition.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the SP336E series of multiprotocol transceivers. It shares functional similarities with other MaxLinear interface ICs but is distinct due to its combined protocol support and 4x4 configuration. It serves as an alternative to discrete solution designs in space-constrained applications.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Replacement Considerations

Check for pin-compatible alternatives within the same family if availability is constrained. Verify that any substitute maintains the same TSSOP-28 package and supports all three required protocols without additional external components.
