- New products offer small form factor packages, up to 50Mbps
data rates, low EMI, IEC61000-4-2-ESD protection, and IEC61000-4-4
electrical fast transient (EFT) protection
MaxLinear, Inc. (Nasdaq: MXL), a technology leader transforming
global connectivity, announced today the launch of two new RS-485
serial transceiver families (MxL8312x and MxL8321x) specifically
designed to ensure reliable, high-performance communication in
harsh industrial environments. The new transceiver families include
nine product SKUs with three speed options (250kbps, 500kbps,
50Mbps) and three package variants including a small 3mm x 3mm
package.

The new families add to MaxLinear’s half-duplex RS-485
transceiver portfolio, building on more than 40 years of experience
designing reliable, high-performance industrial communication
solutions. The new MxL8312x and MxL8321x families add both mid- and
high-tier products to MaxLinear’s previously announced MxL8310x and
MxL8311x families, offering the performance and protection many
modern industrial systems demand.
“Industrial communication devices demand faster, smaller, and
lower power ICs with integrated system level ESD functionality that
meet the uncompromising need for ever-increasing reliability,” said
Amit Bavisi, Vice President and General Manager, Analog
Mixed-Signal at MaxLinear. “We’re seeing growing demand for
high-performance and reliable serial transceivers across industrial
and computing markets as automation drives the need for increased
connectivity between sensors, controllers and machines.”
Available in new packages, higher speeds, and heightened levels
of system-level electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electrical fast
transients (EFT) protection, the new transceivers are well suited
for delivering high performance in harsh conditions. The new
families serve a broad range of applications including factory
automation, industrial motor drives, robotics, building automation,
HVAC, solar, and many more. These new RS-485 transceivers add to
MaxLinear’s rapidly growing portfolio of solutions for the
industrial communications market. According to MarketsandMarkets,
the industrial communication market is projected to reach $29
billion by 2028.
“Functional safety and system uptime are critical design factors
for any industrial system,” said Jon Alexander, Sr Director of
Marketing for Analog Mixed-Signal at MaxLinear. “We’re thrilled to
deliver new products that exceed the rigorous standards our
customer base demands.”
Key Features and Benefits
- Packages: In addition to the traditional 4.9mm x 3.9mm
body size NSOIC-8 package, new devices are available in 3mm x 3mm
body size MSOP-8 and VSON-8 packages.
- System-level protection: Bus pins are designed to
tolerate up to ±4kV of IEC 61000-4-4 electrical fast transients
(EFT) and up to ±12kV of IEC 61000-4-2 electrostatic discharge
(ESD).
- High Performance: The MxL83214 devices are cable of
supporting 50Mbps data rates with excellent pulse symmetry and low
propagation delays.
- Wide supply (3.3V to 5V): Ensures reliable operation
under a wide range of applications and in systems where the power
supply may drop. It also allows for single product qualification
for use in both 3.3V and 5V systems.
- Extended common mode: Up to ±15V of common mode ensures
reliable communication over long distances or in applications where
there may be significant ground plane shift between devices.
Availability & Additional Information
The MxL83121, MxL83122, MxL83211, MxL83212, and MxL83214 are
available now in RoHS compliant, green/halogen free, industry
standard NSOIC-8, MSOP-8, and VSON-8 packages. Evaluation boards
and samples are available at MxL83121, MxL83122, MxL83211,
MxL83212, and MxL83214.
