XR3081XED-F

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Overview

The XR3081XED-F is a high-output, 18V tolerant RS-485/RS-422 transceiver manufactured by MaxLinear. It operates on a single +5V supply with a maximum voltage of 5.5V and a minimum of 4.5V. The device supports full-duplex communication at data rates up to 250 kb/s. It features one driver and one receiver within an SOIC-Narrow-8 package. Key electrical parameters include a propagation delay of 30 ns, an output current capability of 250 mA, and a quiescent supply current of 600 uA. It provides ESD protection rated at 15 kV and functions reliably across an operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity through authorized channels due to discontinuation status. Confirm RoHS compliance details via the manufacturer datasheet. Check for potential obsolescence notices or product change notifications that may affect long-term availability. Ensure sourcing partners provide valid traceability documentation for quality assurance purposes.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Selection Notes

Select this component when full-duplex operation is required alongside 18V line tolerance. Compare against half-duplex alternatives like the XR3082XID-F if bidirectional single-wire communication suffices. Consider the XR3088XIDTR-F for higher speed requirements up to 20 Mb/s. Verify package compatibility with existing PCB footprints for SOIC-Narrow-8 configurations.

Drivers, Receivers, Transceivers Part Context

This part belongs to the XR3081 series of high-performance interface ICs designed for reliable serial communication. It complements other MaxLinear transceivers such as the XR3074XED-F and XR3086XED-F, offering specific advantages in full-duplex applications requiring moderate data rates and high noise immunity.
