Understanding Maxim part numbers
« on: August 02, 2021, 11:13:17 am »
Hi,

I'm looking at the MAX4820 datasheet at Mouser: https://au.mouser.com/datasheet/2/256/MAX4820-MAX4821-1019183.pdf

They have the part in a 20 pin TSSOP package, but with 2 part numbers (MAX4820EUP+ and the MAZ4820EUP+T) as shown on the Mouser page: https://au.mouser.com/Semiconductors/Power-Management-ICs/Gate-Drivers/_/N-41fcp?P=1z0z7by&Keyword=MAX4820&FS=True&bws=1

The datasheet does not indicate what the additional T means on the second part.  Am I right to think that they are the exact same part, but the T refers to part being packaged in Tape instead of a tube?

Regards,
Sijmen.

Yes, they are identical. The only difference seems to be that the MAX4820EUP+ comes in a tube and the MAX4820EUP+T on a Reel/cut.

But be carefull when ordering, the ETP+/ETP+T has another footprint.

Mouser doesn’t link to it, but Maxim has a guide to their product naming: https://www.maximintegrated.com/en/design/packaging/package-information/maxim-naming-conventions.html

Thank you tooki.  That all makes a lot of sense now.
