MAX14819 dual-channel transceiver prepares for Industry 4.0
For robust communications with low power requirements, MAX14819 delivers a fully-compliant IO-Link solution with integrated framer and L+ supply controllers for Industry 4.0 applications, says Maxim Integrated.
Designers can also reduce power dissipation by 50 per cent in industrial applications, says Maxim, using the MAX14819, dual-channel, IO-Link master transceiver.
Today’s fanless programmable logic controller (PLC) and IO-Link gateway systems must dissipate large amounts of power depending on IO configuration (IO-Link, digital input/output (I/O), analogue I/O). As these PLCs evolve into devices for smart factories, designers seek smarter, faster, and lower power solutions while also meeting IO-Link and standard IO (SIO) compliance.
The architecture of the MAX14819 dissipates 50 per cent less heat compared to other IO-Link Master solutions and is compatible in all modes for IO-Link and SIO compliance. Robust L+ supply controllers with settable current limiting and reverse voltage/current protection help ensure robust communications with the lowest power consumption. With just one microcontroller, the integrated framer/universal asynchronous receiver-transmitter (UART) enables the most scalable and cost-effective architecture while enabling the industry’s fastest cycle times (up to 400-micro seconds) and reducing latency.
The MAX14819 is available in a 48-pin (7.0 x 7.0mm) TQFN package and operates over the -40 to +125 degree C temperature range. Applications include IO-Link master systems and IO-Link gateways.
In addition to 65V absolute maximum ratings and reverse polarity protection to comply with IO-Link (1.1.2) and SIO (IEC61131-2, IEC61131-9) modes, the MAX14819 also operates with NPN type sensors.
Maxim Integrated develops analogue and mixed-signal products and technologies to make systems smaller and smarter, with enhanced security and increased energy efficiency. Its designs are used by automotive, industrial, healthcare, mobile consumer, and cloud data centre customers.
