MAX3070EEPD Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The MAX3070EEPD is a 1/1 full-duplex RS422/RS485 transceiver IC manufactured by Analog Devices Inc./Maxim Integrated. This device is classified as obsolete, which necessitates identification of suitable substitute components for new designs and ongoing system support. The MAX3070EEPD operates across a 3V to 3.6V supply range with a maximum data rate of 250kbps and is housed in a 14-pin DIP package suitable for through-hole mounting applications.

Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the MAX3070EEPD is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Protocol compatibility: RS422/RS485 full-duplex operation
• Electrical specifications: 1/1 driver/receiver configuration, 250kbps data rate, 3V to 3.6V supply voltage, 100mV receiver hysteresis
• Mechanical compatibility: 14-DIP package with 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch for through-hole mounting
• Operating temperature range: -40°C to 85°C

The MAX3070EEPD+ meets all these criteria and is therefore classified as a parametric equivalent substitute.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MAX3070EEPD+ is the direct substitute for the obsolete MAX3070EEPD. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility and functional equivalence in RS422/RS485 transceiver applications.

The primary distinction between these parts is product status and regulatory compliance. The MAX3070EEPD+ is an active product with ROHS3 compliance, making it the appropriate choice for new designs and systems requiring current manufacturing support. The original MAX3070EEPD, being obsolete and RoHS non-compliant, should be replaced with the MAX3070EEPD+ in all applications where component availability and regulatory adherence are considerations.

Both parts carry identical REACH and ECCN classifications (REACH Unaffected, EAR99), confirming equivalent regulatory treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the MAX3070EEPD+ be used as a direct replacement for the MAX3070EEPD?

A: Yes. The MAX3070EEPD+ is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications, pin configuration, and package dimensions. No circuit modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between MAX3070EEPD and MAX3070EEPD+?
