MAX3442EESA+T

Analog Devices Inc Maxim Integrated · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · SOIC-8

MAX3442EESA+T from Analog Devices Inc Maxim Integrated, in a SOIC-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 RO output Receiver output: when the receiver is enabled and (A-B) ≥ -50mV, RO is high; when (A-B) ≤ -200mV, RO is low.
2 RE input Receiver output enable: pull RE low to enable RO (the receiver is three-stated when RE is high).
3 DE input Driver output enable: force DE high to enable the driver, pull DE low to three-state the driver outputs, and drive RE high with DE low to enter low-power shutdown.
4 DI input Driver input: a logic-low on DI forces the noninverting output (A) low and the inverting output (B) high, and a logic-high on DI forces A high and B low.
5 GND power_in Ground reference for the device.
6 A bidirectional Noninverting receiver input and driver output; protected to ±60V fault voltage and ±15kV HBM ESD.
7 B bidirectional Inverting receiver input and driver output; protected to ±60V fault voltage and ±15kV HBM ESD.
8 VCC power_in Positive supply, VCC = +4.75V to +5.25V.
