Product details

4/0 driver count — pure transmit side

With four drivers and zero receivers, the MAX3044ESE+ is a transmit-only device. Each driver outputs differential A and B bus signals.

Active production — no obsolescence watch needed

The MAX3044ESE+ carries an Active lifecycle status from Maxim Integrated (now part of Analog Devices). There is no last-time-buy notice, no NRND flag, and no announced end-of-life. For new designs this part is a safe choice — no supply-chain contingency planning required beyond normal distributor stocking. ROHS3 compliant, so it meets EU RoHS exemption-free requirements for all current markets.

Frequently asked questions

Is MAX3044ESE+ the same as MAX3044?

The MAX3044ESE+ is the lead-free, ROHS3-compliant version of the base MAX3044. The electrical specifications — 2.5 Mbps data rate, 4/0 driver count, 4.75 V to 5.25 V supply, -40°C to 85°C temperature range — are identical. The "ESE+" suffix denotes the 16-SOIC package with ROHS3 compliance. They are functionally interchangeable, but the non-"+" variant may not meet current RoHS requirements.

Are there alternatives to MAX3044ESE+ with the same footprint?

Within the MAX3044 family, the MAX3044CSE+ (commercial 0°C to 70°C) and MAX3044BESE+ (extended industrial -40°C to 125°C) share the same 16-SOIC footprint and pinout. The MAX3044ESE+ sits in the middle of the temperature-grade options. For a different driver count, the MAX3040E (4/4) and MAX3042E (4/2) also come in 16-SOIC but have different pin assignments — verify the pinout before substituting.

Is MAX3044ESE+ RoHS compliant?

Yes, the MAX3044ESE+ is ROHS3 compliant, meaning it meets the EU RoHS directive without any exemptions. The "+" suffix in the order code indicates lead-free and RoHS-compliant finish.
