As the smallest, most efficient, and most robust IO-Link device transceiver, it is ideal for IO-Link industrial sensors and actuator devices.
As Industry 4.0 systems become more intelligent, sensor and actuator devices must remain smaller and more robust, while dissipating less energy to easily adapt to their manufacturing environments. Furthermore, integrating multiple discrete solutions into a single design makes it difficult for designers to create robust working solutions while simultaneously meeting time-to-market demands.
The MAX22513 enables adaptive manufacturing for Industry 4.0 applications. By integrating DC-DC regulator and surge protection while providing four times lower power dissipation and a three times smaller footprint compared to the closest competitor, Maxim continues the trend toward miniaturized IO-Link designs that require robust communications with faster time to market. Furthermore, the integrated surge and reverse polarity protection ensures reliable communications in harsh industrial environments, accelerating the design process. The IC operates in a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C and is available in a 28-pin QFN (3.5 mm x 5.5 mm) and WLP (4.1 mm x 2.1 mm) package.
Key Advantages
• Small Size: The highly integrated IC simplifies the design process and reduces the solution size by 3 times compared to the closest competitor; integrated surge protection eliminates four TVS diodes compared to Maxim's previous solution.
• Low Power: 4x lower power dissipation is enabled by low-resistance 2Ω (typical) drivers as well as a 300mA (maximum load) DC/DC regulator with 80 percent efficiency.
• Robust Communications: All four I/O pins are reverse voltage protected, short-circuit protected, and feature ±1kV/500Ω surge protection.
