<title>MAX200, MAX201, MAX202, MAX203, MAX204, MAX205, MAX206, MAX207, MAX208, MAX209, MAX211, MAX213: +5V, RS-232 Transceivers with 0.1&#x26;micro;F External Capacitors</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/1369</link>
<description>The MAX200&#x26;#8211;MAX209/MAX211/MAX213 transceivers are designed for RS-232 and V.28 communication interfaces where &#x26;plusmn;12V supplies are not available. On-board charge pumps convert the +5V input to the &#x26;plusmn;10V needed for RS-232 output levels. The MAX201 and MAX209 operate from +5V and +12V, respectively, and contain a +12V to -12V charge-pump voltage converter.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX200&#x26;#8211;MAX209/MAX211/MAX213 drivers and receivers meet all EIA/TIA-232E and CCITT V.28 specifications at a 20kbps data rate. The drivers maintain the &#x26;plusmn;5V EIA/TIA-232E output signal levels at data rates in excess of 120kbps when loaded in accordance with the EIA/TIA-232E specification.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The 5&#x26;micro;W shutdown mode of the MAX200, MAX205, MAX206, and MAX211 conserves energy in battery-powered systems. The MAX213 has an active-low shutdown and an active-high receiver enable control. Two receivers of the MAX213 are active, allowing the ring indicator (RI) to be monitored easily using only 75&#x26;micro;W power.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX211 and MAX213 are available in a 28-pin, wide small-outline (SO) package and a 28-pin shrink small-outline (SSOP) package, which occupies only 40% of the area of the SO. The MAX207 is now available in a 24-pin SO package and a 24-pin SSOP. The MAX203 and MAX205 use no external components and are recommended for applications with limited circuit board space.</description>

<title>MAX9918, MAX9919, MAX9920: -20V to +75V Input Range, Precision Uni-/Bidirectional, Current-Sense Amplifiers</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/5846</link>
<description>The MAX9918/MAX9919/MAX9920 are single-supply, high-accuracy current-sense amplifiers with a high input common-mode range that extends from -20V to +75V. These amplifiers are well suited for current monitoring of inductive loads such as motors and solenoids, where common-mode voltages can become negative due to inductive kickback, reverse-battery conditions, or transient events.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX9918/MAX9920 feature adjustable gain set by an external resistive-divider network. The MAX9919 features fixed gains of 45V/V (MAX9919F) and 90V/V
(MAX9919N). The MAX9918/MAX9919/MAX9920 operate as unidirectional amplifiers when V&#x3C;sub&#x3E;REFIN&#x3C;/sub&#x3E; = GND and as bidirectional amplifiers when V&#x3C;sub&#x3E;REFIN&#x3C;/sub&#x3E; = V&#x3C;sub&#x3E;CC&#x3C;/sub&#x3E;/2. The MAX9920 attenuates the input signal by a factor of 4 at the input level-shifting stage allowing the device to sense voltages up to 200mV (unidirectional operation) or &#x26;plusmn;100mV (bidirectional operation).&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX9918/MAX9919/MAX9920 operate with a single 5V supply voltage, are fully specified over the -40&#x26;deg;C to +125&#x26;deg;C automotive temperature range, and are
available in an 8-pin SOIC package.</description>

<title>DS9107: &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Button Capsule</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/5190</link>
<description>The &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Button&#x26;reg; Capsule is a mechanical enclosure to protect Temperature Logger &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Buttons (DS1921 and DS1922 series) from moisture, solvents and pressure. It provides IP68 protection to the &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Button inside (refer to Application Note 4126: &#x3C;i&#x3E;Understanding the IP (Ingress Protection) Ratings of &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Button Data Loggers and Capsule&#x3C;/i&#x3E;). The protection level exceeds the &#x22;Water Resistant 3 ATM&#x22; requirements.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The DS9107 consists of a base with the cavity for a F5 &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Button, a screw-in plug with O-ring to seal the enclosure, and a top with two stainless-steel screws to mount the &#x3C;u&#x3E;i&#x3C;/u&#x3E;Button Capsule to a cable, e.g., to measure temperature at different levels within a liquid. The cable is inserted into the notch of the plug where it is held in place by the matching protrusion of the top piece.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

Base, plug, and top are made of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS). This material is chosen for its mechanical properties (remains stable during both long and short-term exposure to high temperatures), inherent flame resistance, and outstanding chemical resistance (inert to steam, strong bases, fuels and acids). Although PPS is virtually insoluble below 200&#x26;deg;C, it can be attacked by chlorinated hydrocarbons. The silicone O-ring matches the temperature and chemical qualities of the PPS. In addition, it is resistant to sunlight, ozone, oxygen, and UV light. The chemical stability of the screws does not compromise that of the PPS and the silicone.</description>

<title>MAX17122: Step-Up, Step-Down Regulator, Gate-On Charge Pump, and Boost-Buck Regulator for TV TFT LCD Display</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/6413</link>
<description>The MAX17122 multiple-output power-supply IC generates all the supply rails for thin-film transistor (TFT) liquid-crystal display (LCD) TV panels. It can operate from 8V to 16.5V input voltages and is optimized for LCD TV panel applications running directly from 12V regulated supplies. It includes a 22V internal-switch step-down regulator for digital logic, a 22V internal switch step-up regulator to power the TFT source drivers, and a temperature-compensated 36V internal-switch boost-buck regulator that produces a negative output that can vary according to the temperature sensed by an external NTC thermistor. All three of these regulators feature high-efficiency and fixed-frequency operation. High-frequency operation allows the use of small inductors and capacitors, resulting in a compact solution.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX17122 includes a positive charge-pump linear regulator controller that uses an external pnp bipolar junction transistor (BJT) to typically form a regulated charge-pump doubler to supply the LCD positive gate-driver supply voltage. A negative gate-driver supply is derived linearly between the boost-buck regulator&#x27;s output and ground, using an external npn BJT connected to
ground and a small bypass capacitor.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E; 

Other features include an external-capacitor-timed, open-drain, power-good output that monitors the step-down regulator&#x27;s feedback and a simple untimed output that monitors the positive charge-pump linear regulator&#x27;s feedback. A high-voltage stress function is available for the step-up regulator output. The GATE output directly drives an external p-channel MOSFET to provide True Shutdown&#x26;#8482; of the step-up output.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX17122 is available in a 6mm x 6mm, 40-pin thin QFN package and operates over the -40&#x26;deg;C to +85&#x26;deg;C temperature range.</description>

<title>MAX6666, MAX6667: High-Accuracy PWM Output Temperature Sensors</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/3065</link>
<description>The MAX6666/MAX6667 are high-accuracy, low-cost, low-power temperature sensors with a single-wire output. The MAX6666/MAX6667 convert the ambient 
temperature into a ratiometric PWM output with temperature information contained in the duty cycle of the output square wave. The MAX6666 has a push-pull output and the MAX6667 has an open-drain output.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX6666/MAX6667 operate at supply voltages from +3V to +5.5V. The typical unloaded supply current at 5.0V is 200&#x26;micro;A. Both devices feature a single-wire output that minimizes the number of pins necessary to interface with a microprocessor (&#x26;micro;P). The output is a square wave with a nominal frequency of 35Hz (&#x26;plusmn;20%) at +25&#x26;deg;C. The output format is decoded as follows: 
&#x3C;blockquote&#x3E;
Temperature (&#x26;deg;C) = 235 - (400 &#x26;times; t&#x3C;sub&#x3E;1&#x3C;/sub&#x3E;)/t&#x3C;sub&#x3E;2&#x3C;/sub&#x3E;
&#x3C;/blockquote&#x3E;
Where t&#x3C;sub&#x3E;1&#x3C;/sub&#x3E; is fixed with a typical value of 10ms and t&#x3C;sub&#x3E;2&#x3C;/sub&#x3E; is modulated by the temperature (Figure 1 in the full data sheet). The MAX6666/MAX6667 operate from -40&#x26;deg; to +125&#x26;deg; and are available in space-saving SOT23 packages.</description>

<title>DS2482-101: Single-Channel 1-Wire&#x26;reg; Master with Sleep Mode</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/5953</link>
<description>The DS2482-101 is an I&#x26;sup2;C-to-1-Wire bridge device that interfaces directly to standard (100kHz max) or fast (400kHz max) I&#x26;sup2;C masters to perform bidirectional protocol conversion between the I&#x26;sup2;C master and any downstream 1-Wire slave devices. Relative to any attached 1-Wire slave device, the DS2482-101 is a 1-Wire master. Internal, factory-trimmed timers relieve the system host processor from generating time-critical 1-Wire waveforms, supporting both standard and overdrive 1-Wire communication speeds. To optimize 1-Wire waveform generation, the DS2482-101 performs slew-rate control on rising and falling 1-Wire edges and provides additional programmable features to match drive characteristics to the 1-Wire slave environment. Programmable, strong pullup features support 1-Wire power delivery to 1-Wire devices such as EEPROMs and sensors. The DS2482-101 combines these features with an output to control an external MOSFET for enhanced strong pullup application. The I&#x26;sup2;C slave
address assignment is controlled by one binary address input, resolving potential conflicts with other I&#x26;sup2;C slave devices in the system. When not in use, the device can be put in sleep mode where power consumption is minimal.</description>

<title>MAX15061: 80V, 300mW Boost Converter and Current Monitor for APD Bias Applications</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/6466</link>
<description>The MAX15061 consists of a constant-frequency pulse-width modulating (PWM) step-up DC-DC converter with an internal switch and a high-side current monitor with high-speed adjustable current limiting. This device can generate output voltages up to 76V and provides current monitoring up to 4mA (up to 300mW). The MAX15061 can be used for a wide variety of applications such as avalanche photodiode biasing, PIN biasing, or varactor biasing, and LCD displays. The MAX15061 operates from 2.7V to 11V. &#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The constant-frequency (400kHz), current-mode PWM architecture provides low-noise output voltage that is easy to filter. A high-voltage, internal power switch allows this device to boost output voltages up to 76V. Internal soft-start circuitry limits the input current when the boost converter starts. The MAX15061 features a shutdown mode to save power.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX15061 includes a current monitor with more than three decades of dynamic range and monitors current ranging from 500nA to 2mA with high accuracy. Resistor-adjustable current limiting protects the APD from optical power transients. A clamp diode protects the monitor&#xE2;&#x80;&#x99;s output from overvoltage conditions. Other protection features include cycle-by-cycle current limiting of the boost converter switch, undervoltage lockout, and thermal shutdown if the die temperature reaches +160&#x26;deg;C.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX15061 is available in a thermally enhanced 4mm x 4mm, 16-pin TQFN package and operates over the -40&#x26;deg;C to +125&#x26;deg;C automotive temperature range.</description>

<description>The MAX14770E is a half-duplex, &#x26;plusmn;35kV HBM high ESD-protected transceiver for Profibus-DP&#x26;reg; and RS-485 applications. In addition, it can be used for RS-422/V.11 communications. The MAX14770E is designed to meet IEC 61158-2, TIA/EIA-422-B, TIA/EIA-485-A, V.11, and X.27 standards. &#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX14770E operates from a +5V supply and has true fail-safe circuitry that guarantees a logic-high receiver output when the receiver inputs are open or shorted.

The MAX14770E features a 1/4 standard-unit load receiver input impedance, allowing up to 128 1/4 unit load transceivers on the bus. Drivers are short-circuit current limited and are protected against excessive power dissipation by thermal-shutdown circuitry.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;

The MAX14770E is available in 8-pin SO and tiny TDFN (3mm x 3mm) packages, and is specified over the extended (-40&#x26;deg;C to +85&#x26;deg;C) and automotive (-40&#x26;deg;C to +125&#x26;deg;C) temperature ranges.</description>
