What the MAX3059ASA+ is and where it fits
The MAX3059ASA+ from Analog Devices is a single-channel CAN transceiver in an 8-SOIC package. It handles the physical-layer conversion between a CAN controller and the differential bus, operating at a standard data rate of 1 Mbps with full-duplex capability. The part is specified across the -40°C to 125°C temperature range, making it suitable for industrial automation, motor drives, and automotive under-hood nodes where the bus must survive under-hood heat and vibration.
Lifecycle and sourcing reality
The MAX3059ASA+ is listed as Active in production with ROHS3 compliance. No end-of-life notification or last-time-buy window is in effect, so the part is safe to specify for new designs and production builds.
