MAX7414EUA+T

The MAX7414EUA+T is a high performance 2-channel electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection circuit, commonly used in Interface and other applications. The circuit includes a pair of clamps and is designed to offer superior ESD robustness over a wide temperature range.

The MAX7414EUA+T offers superior ESD robustness, compared to traditional capacitance clamp designs. It is designed for use in extremely high-speed interfaces, such as UART connections, IEEE1394 (FireWire) interfaces and Ethernet. Due to the superior ESD robustness, it is suitable for use in many industrial and other applications, such as medical equipment, automobiles, and control systems.

The circuit\'s operating principle is based on two integrated active circuits--a comparator and a regulator. The comparator compares the electrical potential of the signal line to the reference voltage. If the potential is too high, the output of the comparator will trigger the regulator, which immediately reduces the voltage to a safe level.

The MAX7414EUA+T is designed to use a wide range of supply voltages, ranging from +5 V to +15 V. The device has low quiescent current, making it suitable for power-sensitive applications. It is also highly durable, and can survive up to 10,000 ESD strikes without failure.

The MAX7414EUA+T is a highly reliable, robust and versatile ESD protection circuit, and is suitable for use in a wide range of applications. It is easy to use, requires minimal additional components, and provides superior ESD protection over traditional capacitance clamp designs.
