SP339EER1-L

MaxLinear · RS-485 / RS-422 ICs · QFN-40-EP(6x6)

SP339EER1-L from MaxLinear, in a QFN-40-EP(6x6). Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

Pinout

Pin Name Type Function
1 L1/R1_OUT output Mode-dependent: RS-232 R1 receiver output (MODE=00/01) or logic '1' output (MODE=10/11). Named L1 as CMOS/TTL logic-side signal.
2 L2/R2_OUT/R1_OUT output Mode-dependent: RS-232 R2 receiver output in mode 00/01, RS-485/422 R1 receiver output in mode 10/11.
3 L3/T1_IN input Mode-dependent T1 (driver 1) CMOS/TTL logic input in all active modes.
4 L4/T2_IN input RS-232 T2 driver logic input in mode 00/01; unused in RS-485/422 modes.
5 L6/R3_OUT output RS-232 R3 receiver output in mode 00/01; logic '1' in RS-485/422 modes.
6 L7/T3_IN input RS-232 T3 driver logic input in mode 00/01; unused in RS-485/422 modes.
7 L8/R4_OUT output RS-232 R4 receiver output in mode 00/01; logic '1' in RS-485/422 modes.
8 L9/R5_OUT output RS-232 R5 receiver output in mode 00/01; logic '1' in RS-485/422 modes.
9 VCC power_in Positive supply input, 3.3V or 5V single-supply operation.
10 GND power_in Ground return.
11 SLEW input Slew-rate select. SLEW=VCC enables 250 kbps slew-rate limiting on all drivers to reduce EMI.
12 DIR1 input Direction control for RS-485/422 driver/receiver 1. High enables T1 (and disables R1 in half-duplex mode 10).
13 NC unconnected Not connected internally; leave floating or tie as convenient for layout.
14 MODE0 input Protocol select bit 0. Combined with MODE1 selects RS-232 loopback (00), RS-232 (01), RS-485/422 half-duplex (10), or RS-485/422 full-duplex (11).
15 MODE1 input Protocol select bit 1. See MODE0 for combined mode encoding.
16 NC unconnected Not connected internally.
17 TERM input Termination enable. In RS-485/422 modes, high enables the internal 120Ω-class receiver termination network across the bus inputs.
18 NC unconnected Not connected internally.
19 ENABLE input Device enable. ENABLE=VCC for normal operation; ENABLE=0V puts the device into low-power shutdown (<10 µA).
20 VCC power_in Positive supply input, 3.3V or 5V.
21 R9/R5_IN input RS-232 R5 receiver bus input in mode 00/01; unused in RS-485/422 modes. ±18V tolerant.
22 R8/R4_IN input RS-232 R4 receiver bus input in mode 00/01; unused in RS-485/422 modes. ±18V tolerant.
23 GND power_in Ground return.
24 R7/T3_OUT output RS-232 T3 driver bus output in mode 00/01; unused in RS-485/422 modes. ±18V tolerant.
25 R6/R3_IN input RS-232 R3 receiver bus input in mode 00/01; unused in RS-485/422 modes.
26 GND power_in Ground return.
27 R4/T2_OUT/R1_IN_B bidirectional Mode-dependent bus pin: RS-232 T2 driver output in mode 01; RS-485/422 R1 receiver input B in mode 11 (full duplex).
28 R3/T1_OUT/R1_IN_A bidirectional Mode-dependent bus pin: RS-232 T1 driver output in mode 01; RS-485/422 R1 receiver input A in mode 11 (full duplex).
29 GND power_in Ground return.
30 R2/R2_IN/R1_IN_A_T1_OUT_A/T1_OUT_A bidirectional Mode-dependent bus pin: RS-232 R2 receiver input (mode 01); RS-485/422 half-duplex R1 input A / T1 output A (mode 10); full-duplex T1 output A (mode 11).
31 R1/R1_IN/R1_IN_B_T1_OUT_B/T1_OUT_B bidirectional Mode-dependent bus pin: RS-232 R1 receiver input (mode 01); RS-485/422 half-duplex R1 input B / T1 output B (mode 10); full-duplex T1 output B (mode 11).
32 VCC power_in Positive supply, 3.3V or 5V. Bypass with 1.0 µF to ground for supply decoupling.
33 VSS power_out Charge-pump negative supply rail (internally generated). Bypass with 0.1 µF to ground.
34 C2- passive Charge-pump capacitor 2 negative lead. Connect external 0.1 µF flying cap between C2+ and C2-.
35 C1- passive Charge-pump capacitor 1 negative lead. Connect external 0.1 µF flying cap between C1+ and C1-.
36 GND power_in Ground return.
37 C1+ passive Charge-pump capacitor 1 positive lead. 0.1 µF flying capacitor to C1-.
38 VCC power_in Positive supply, 3.3V or 5V.
39 C2+ passive Charge-pump capacitor 2 positive lead. 0.1 µF flying capacitor to C2-.
40 VDD power_out Charge-pump positive supply rail (internally generated). Bypass with 0.1 µF to ground.

3D model downloads

Two STEP files. Same geometry, different body top:

File Size Use it when
sp339eer1-l.step 538 KB You want the bare part, or you mark your own boards.
sp339eer1-l-etched.step 2.9 MB You want the part with SP339EER1-L already on it.

The marking in the etched file is real recessed geometry cut into the solid, not a texture or a decal: 740 faces against 314 in the bare model. It survives export, section views, and rendering in any CAD tool, and it drops straight into KiCad or Fusion with no extra setup.
