MAX3120EUA+T

Analog Devices Inc Maxim Integrated · Ethernet Transceivers · MSOP-8

MAX3120EUA+T from Analog Devices Inc Maxim Integrated, in a MSOP-8. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 TXD input IR transmitter TTL/CMOS data input where high turns the LED on, rated -0.3V to +6V referred to GND.
2 VCC power_in Supply voltage operated from +3.0V to +5.5V, with an absolute maximum of +6V referred to GND.
3 GND power_in Ground reference that connects the PIN diode anode and must be tied to PGND.
4 PINC input PIN diode cathode input that must be kept short and separated from noisy traces, with a maximum rating of 10mA.
5 SHDN input Active-low shutdown input (rated -0.3V to +6V referred to GND) that reduces shutdown supply current to 10nA typical.
6 PGND power_in Power ground for the IR LED driver, rated -0.1V to +0.1V referred to GND and connected to GND.
7 LEDC output LED driver output that sinks the IR LED cathode current, rated 200mA continuous and 500mA repetitive pulsed (<90µs, duty cycle <20%).
8 RXD output IR receiver TTL/CMOS data output that pulses low for each IR input pulse, rated -0.3V to (VCC + 0.3V).
