Maxim Alternatives for the Texas Instruments SN75HVD1176

Texas Instruments SN75HVD1176

Benefits of the MAX3468 over the SN75HVD1176:

• Hot swap capability (holds RE/ high and DE low upon initial power-up sequence) vs. hot swap capable for SN75HVD1176.
• 4mA max supply current (I_CC) vs. 6mA for SN75HVD3082E.
• 10ns max driver rise and fall time (t_R, t_F) vs. 7.5ns for SN75HVD1176.
• True fail-safe operation (max differential threshold voltage of -50mV) vs. failsafe receiver (max differential threshold voltage of -20mV) for SN75HVD1176.

Benefits of the SN75HVD1176 over the MAX3468:

• SN75HVD1176 has a 5µA max shutdown supply current (RE/ = V_CC, DE = 0) vs. 10µA for the Maxim part.
• SN75HVD1176 has ±10kV ESD protection on bus pins vs. ±6kV for the Maxim part.
• SN75HVD1176 allows up to 160 transceivers on a bus vs. 128 for the Maxim part.
