Analog Devices MAX3222
MAX3222 variants from Analog Devices
MAX3222 Overview
What changes between part numbers, and what to check before you lock the BOM — Drivers, Receivers and Transceivers.
Key Features
- Footprint / package: 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width), 18-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm)Land pattern and thermal pad differ between these packages — run a quick footprint check before you swap variants.
- Lifecycle mix: ActiveConfirm lifecycle on the exact MPN, not just the base number prefix.
- 3 distinct suffix patternsExamples: CAP+, CPN+, EAP+. Decode suffix meaning in the ordering notes under the variant table.
Target Applications
- Drivers, Receivers and Transceivers — design-in and field replacement
- BOM scrub where only the base prefix is known but suffix is TBD
- Second-source checks when the original MPN is constrained
Ordering Variants
Compare 3 MAX3222 part numbers by package, electrical parameters, lifecycle, and availability. Use RFQ for stock and lead-time confirmation.
| Part Number | Description | Package Type | Manufacturer | Lifecycle | RoHS | Availability | Action |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MAX3222CAP+ | Package: 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width) | Mounting Type: Surface Mount | Supply Voltage: 3V ~ 5.5V | Data Rate: 120Kbps | Operating Temperature: 0°C ~ 70°C | 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width) | Analog Devices | Active | Compliant | In Stock | |
| MAX3222CPN+ | Package: 18-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) | Mounting Type: Through Hole | Supply Voltage: 3V ~ 5.5V | Data Rate: 120Kbps | Operating Temperature: 0°C ~ 70°C | 18-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) | Analog Devices | Active | Compliant | In Stock | |
| MAX3222EAP+ | Package: 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width) | Mounting Type: Surface Mount | Supply Voltage: 3V ~ 5.5V | Data Rate: 120Kbps | Operating Temperature: -40°C ~ 85°C | 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width) | Analog Devices | Active | Compliant | In Stock |

How to Choose the Right MAX3222 Drivers, Receivers and Transceivers
Match the footprint first
Packages here: 20-SSOP (0.209", 5.30mm Width), 18-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm). Open the land-pattern drawing before you substitute a different suffix.
Electrical headroom
Compare voltage and current columns in the variant table. For MAX3222, a suffix with lower voltage or current rating will not survive the same circuit without recalculation.
Temp grade letter matters
Commercial (0–70 °C) and industrial (−40–85 °C+) suffixes look similar in the prefix — confirm ambient + self-heating, not just the first page of the datasheet.
Copy the full MPN
Do not BOM only "MAX3222" — include the full suffix (e.g. CAP+, CPN+, EAP+). RFQ with reel/tube preference and required date code.
