MAX3059ASA CANbus Transceiver Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX3059ASA is a full-duplex CANbus transceiver IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated, housed in an 8-SOIC surface mount package. This component interfaces microcontroller CAN ports with the physical CANbus network, providing 1/1 driver/receiver configuration with 1 Mbps data rate capability.

The MAX3059ASA is classified as obsolete. Identifying equivalent and substitute parts is necessary to maintain design continuity, ensure supply chain availability, and support ongoing production or maintenance requirements for systems utilizing this transceiver.

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitute parts for the MAX3059ASA are determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Protocol: CANbus
• Number of Drivers/Receivers: 1/1 configuration
• Duplex Mode: Full
• Data Rate: 1 Mbps
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V ~ 5.5V
• Receiver Hysteresis: 100 mV
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 125°C
• Package Type: 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width)
• Mounting Type: Surface Mount
• Compliance: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected

All substitute parts listed maintain identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility with the original MAX3059ASA, ensuring direct functional replacement without circuit redesign.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX3059ASA is obsolete; however, two active substitute parts maintain full parametric equivalence:

MAX3059ASA+ is the direct successor to the MAX3059ASA, sharing the identical base product number (MAX3059) with active product status. This part is the primary substitute for new designs and ongoing production support.

MAX3058ASA+ provides an alternative from the same manufacturer family (base product number MAX3058) with identical electrical and mechanical specifications. This part is suitable where MAX3059ASA+ availability is constrained.

Both substitutes are ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, maintaining regulatory compliance equivalent to the original part. Selection between MAX3059ASA+ and MAX3058ASA+ should be based on supply chain availability and lead time requirements, as electrical performance and package compatibility are identical.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MAX3059ASA+ and MAX3058ASA+ be used interchangeably with MAX3059ASA?

A: Yes. Both parts are parametric equivalents with identical electrical specifications (1/1 CANbus transceiver, 1 Mbps data rate, 4.5V–5.5V supply, 100 mV receiver hysteresis, -40°C to 125°C operating range) and mechanical compatibility (8-SOIC package, surface mount). No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between MAX3059ASA+ and MAX3058ASA+?

A: Both parts are functionally equivalent with identical electrical and mechanical parameters. The difference lies in the base product number (MAX3059 versus MAX3058). Selection should be based on supply availability and lead time.

Q: Are the substitute parts available in the same packaging?

A: Yes. All substitute parts use 8-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width) surface mount packaging, ensuring direct PCB compatibility without layout modifications.

Q: Do the substitute parts meet the same compliance standards?

A: Yes. MAX3059ASA+, MAX3058ASA+, and the original MAX3059ASA are all ROHS3 compliant and REACH unaffected, maintaining identical regulatory compliance.

Q: Why is MAX3059ASA classified as obsolete?

A: The MAX3059ASA has reached end-of-life status. Active equivalents (MAX3059ASA+ and MAX3058ASA+) are available from the manufacturer to support ongoing applications and new designs.
