Maxim Integrated 4-Channel Inverting Line Transceiver BiCMOS 16-Pin SOIC MAX3042BCSE+

Maxim Integrated MAX3042BCSE+ is a 4-channel inverting line transceiver IC using BiCMOS technology, packaged in a compact 16-pin SOIC suitable for surface mount applications. It operates efficiently with a supply voltage up to 7V and is designed to handle differential inputs to provide reliable data transmission with BiCMOS outputs.

Engineered for industrial and telecommunications applications, this line transceiver supports data rates up to 20 Mbps with slew-rate limiting for better signal integrity at different speeds. It ensures protection against electrostatic discharge with ±10kV Human Body Model compliance and ±2kV fast transient burst immunity, making it robust for ESD-sensitive environments.

The device is suitable for handheld equipment, industrial motor control systems, PLCs, telecommunications equipment, and networking applications where reliable line interfaces are critical. Its pin compatibility with popular line drivers like SN75174 allows easy upgrades or replacements in existing designs.

Operating temperature range from 0°C to 70°C ensures stable function in typical commercial and industrial environments. The low supply current of 2mA and a shutdown mode current of only 2nA help improve power efficiency in portable and battery-powered systems.

The ultra-small 16-pin narrow SOIC package with dimensions of 10mm length, 6.2mm width, and 1.75mm height saves board space in compact electronic designs. Its package is surface mount type, supporting modern manufacturing processes.

Supports differential input and BiCMOS output types for reliable line transmission. Operates on a supply voltage range with a minimum of -0.3V and maximum of 7V. Maximum high-level output current of 250mA and a low-level output current of 25mA.

Designed for 0°C to 70°C operating temperature ensuring stable performance. Offers up to 20Mbps data rate and slew-rate limitation for multiple speed operation. Features ±10kV Human Body Model ESD protection and ±2kV EFT fast transient burst immunity.

Complies with Level 2 surge immunity, supporting unshielded cable models. Compact 16-pin narrow SOIC form factor with dimensions 10mm x 6.2mm x 1.75mm. Low power consumption with 2mA supply current and 1mA shutdown mode current.

Pin compatible with SN75174, 26LS31C and LTC487 for easy replacement.
