MAX3443EESA+T

Maxim Integrated · RS-485/RS-422 ICs · SOIC-8

MAX3443EESA+T from 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: if the receiver is enabled and (A-B) ≥ -50mV, RO is high; if (A-B) ≤ -200mV, RO is low.
2 RE input Receiver Output Enable: pull RE low to enable RO.
3 DE input Driver Output Enable: pull DE low to enable the outputs and force DE high to three-state the outputs; the datasheet pin table also says to drive RE and DE high to enter low-power shutdown mode.
4 DI input Driver Input: a logic-low on DI forces the noninverting output low and the inverting output high, and a logic-high on DI forces the noninverting output high and the inverting output low.
5 GND power_in Ground.
6 A bidirectional Noninverting receiver input / driver output; protected to ±60V fault voltage (terminate with 54Ω or 100Ω to guarantee protection) and ±15kV HBM ESD.
7 B bidirectional Inverting receiver input / driver output; protected to ±60V fault voltage (terminate with 54Ω or 100Ω to guarantee protection) and ±15kV HBM ESD.
8 VCC power_in Positive supply, VCC = +4.75V to +5.25V.
