SPI-to-USB bridge with dual-role host/peripheral capability
The MAX3421EETJ+ is a USB 2.0 controller that handles both host and peripheral roles through a simple SPI interface — no external PHY or transceiver needed beyond the USB connector and passives. The industrial temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) means this part can sit on a factory-floor PLC backplane or in an outdoor sensor hub without a heated enclosure.
The Tube packaging means this part ships in anti-static tubes of 60 or 75 units (typical QFN tube quantity) — not tape-and-reel, so factor in manual placement or a tube feeder if you're running high-volume pick-and-place.
ROHS3 compliant (exemption-free for all ten restricted substances), so it passes EU and UKCA material declarations without an exemption note.
