Product details

Key ratings and what they mean for the BOM

The 250kbps data rate is a deliberate choice: it is fast enough for most sensor and actuator networks over moderate cable runs while keeping signal-integrity management simple. The 25 mV of receiver hysteresis cleans up noise on long bus stubs. The 5V supply rail is fixed.

Lifecycle and sourcing posture

The MAX3157EAI+T carries an Active product status and is ROHS3 compliant. No direct pin-compatible second source is listed in the official record, so dual-sourcing would require qualification of a functionally equivalent transceiver from another vendor.

Frequently asked questions

Does MAX3157EAI+T work with RS422?

Yes. The MAX3157EAI+T is specified for both RS-422 and RS-485 protocols, full-duplex operation.

Is MAX3157EAI+T compatible with 3.3V logic?

No. The supply voltage range is 4.75V to 5.25V. 3.3V logic levels are not within the guaranteed operating conditions; a level translator or a 3.3V-rated transceiver would be needed.
