XR3160EIU-F from MaxLinear, Inc. is an active full-duplex transceiver for RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 serial interfaces. It integrates 1/1, 2/2 driver/receiver channels, supports data rates up to 1Mbps, 20Mbps, and operates from 3V ~ 5.5V.
Selection profile: Its full-duplex architecture uses separate transmit and receive signal paths; confirm the required four-wire topology during selection. This is a multiprotocol device covering RS-232, RS-422, RS-485, so mode selection and pin configuration should be confirmed for the intended interface. The 1Mbps, 20Mbps data-rate rating, 3V ~ 5.5V supply range, and -40°C ~ 85°C operating range distinguish this orderable part in the catalog.
Package and ordering: XR3160EIU-F is supplied in SSOP-20; the source package designation is 20-SSOP, with Tube packaging options listed for this orderable part. Confirm reel, tube, tray, or cut-tape requirements against the full manufacturer ordering code before purchase.
