The IC component MAX3073EESD+T is a transceiver designed for use in industrial applications that require robust communication over long distances. It integrates a 3.3V RS-485/RS-422 transceiver with an RS-485 bus fault protection feature.
One of its key features is its robustness in harsh environments. It can tolerate voltage spikes up to ±35V and provides ±80V fault protection on bus pins, safeguarding against electrical transients. This ensures reliable data transmission even in noisy industrial settings.
The MAX3073EESD+T operates at data rates up to 50Mbps, making it ideal for high-speed applications. It includes a slew-rate-limited driver that reduces electromagnetic emissions and minimizes reflections on the bus lines, enhancing signal integrity.
Additionally, this IC component features a low receiver input impedance that allows it to receive signals with large common mode voltages, enabling it to interface with a wide range of transmitters. It also has a receiver failsafe mode, which maintains a logic high output even when the receiver inputs are open or shorted.
The MAX3073EESD+T offers a wide supply voltage range from 3V to 5.5V, allowing it to be powered by various sources. It also comes in a small 14-pin TSSOP package, ensuring space-efficient designs
