Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between MAX3221ECUE+ and MAX3221EEUE+?
The MAX3221EEUE+ is the industrial-temperature version rated -40°C to +85°C, while the MAX3221ECUE+ is commercial-grade 0°C to 70°C. Both share the same 16-TSSOP package, pinout, supply range, and 250 kbps data rate. Choose the EEUE+ for outdoor or factory-floor environments; the ECUE+ for indoor, climate-controlled equipment.
Is MAX3221ECUE+ compatible with 3.3V logic?
Yes, the supply range of 3V to 5.5V covers 3.3V operation directly. You can power it from a 3.3V rail and interface with a 3.3V UART without extra level shifting.
What are the equivalent parts for MAX3221ECUE+?
The closest pin-compatible equivalent is the MAX3221EEUE+, which differs only in temperature grade. For a different package or channel count, look at the MAX3221 family — but for a drop-in replacement in the 16-TSSOP footprint, the EEUE+ is the direct alternate.
