Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'L/TR' against official MaxLinear documentation to confirm tape-and-reel packaging status. Confirm RoHS compliance details directly from the manufacturer's datasheet or product compliance page. Check for End-of-Life (EOL) notifications or Product Change Notices (PCN) as availability may be restricted.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when a single IC must handle mixed RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 signals. Ensure the application environment stays within the 0°C to +70°C commercial temperature range. Verify that the 3.3 V to 5 V power supply aligns with system requirements and that the TSSOP-28 package fits the PCB layout constraints.
