I. Device Description
A. General
The MAX3801 is a +3.3V adaptive cable equalizer designed for coaxial and twin-axial cable point-to-point communications
applications. The equalizer includes differential CML data inputs and outputs, a loss-of-signal (LOS-bar) output, and a cable
integrity monitor (CIM) output.
The adaptive cable equalizer is capable of equalizing differential or single-ended signals at data rates up to 3.2Gbps. It
automatically adjusts to attenuation caused by skin-effect losses of up to 30dB at 1.6GHz. The equalizer effectively extends
the usable length of copper cable in high-frequency interconnect applications.
The MAX3801 is available in a 24-pin QFN package with exposed pad and consumes only 125mW at +3.3V

VI. Reliability Evaluation
A. Accelerated Life Test
The results of the 150°C biased (static) life test are shown in Table 1. Using these results, the Failure
Rate (λ) is calculated as follows:
λ=
1
=
MTTF
1.83
(Chi square value for MTTF upper limit)
192 x 9823 x 44 x 2
Temperature Acceleration factor assuming an activation energy of 0.8eV
λ = 11.03 x 10-8
λ = 11.03 F.I.T. (60% confidence level @ 25°C)
This low failure rate represents data collected from Maxim’s reliability qualification and monitor programs.
Maxim also performs weekly Burn-In on samples from production to assure reliability of its processes. The
reliability required for lots which receive a burn-in qualification is 59 F.I.T. at a 60% confidence level, which equates
to 3 failures in an 80 piece sample. Maxim performs failure analysis on rejects from lots exceeding this level.
Maxim also performs 1000 hour life test monitors quarterly for each process. This data is published in the Product
Reliability Report (RR-1M).
B. Moisture Resistance Tests
Maxim evaluates pressure pot stress from every assembly process during qualification of each new design.
Pressure Pot testing must pass a 20% LTPD for acceptance. Additionally, industry standard 85°C/85%RH or
HAST tests are performed quarterly per device/package family.
C. E.S.D. and Latch-Up Testing
The HT12 die type has been found to have all pins able to withstand a transient pulse of ± 1500V, per MilStd-883 Method 3015 (reference attached ESD Test Circuit). Latch-Up testing has shown that this device
withstands a current of ±250mA.
