Maxim's MAX14819 Dual IO-Link Master Transceiver at Mouser

The Maxim MAX14819 dual-channel IO-Link master transceiver features an integrated internal framer/UART that enables the most flexible architecture while still achieving fast cycle times (up to 400 microseconds). This allows designers to lower bill of materials (BOM) cost by eliminating the UART dependency from the microcontroller. The device's robust L+ supply controllers offer settable current limiting and reverse voltage/current protection to help ensure robust communications with low power consumption.

The transceiver integrates two low-power sensor supply controllers with advanced current limiting, reverse current blocking, and reverse polarity protection capability to enable low-power robust designs. The device provides a selectable driver current (100mA to 500mA), supports supply voltages from 9V to 36V. In addition, the MAX14819 features a low typical on-resistance of just 1 Ohm, which helps reduce power dissipation.

Maxim's MAX14819 dual-channel IO-Link master transceiver is now available from Mouser in a 48-pin 4mm × 4mm TQFN package that is specified for minus 40 to +125degC. Mouser is also stocking the MAX14819EVKIT evaluation kit, which allows engineers to test the onboard MAX14819 transceiver. The kit includes Windows 7-compatible software that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for exercising the features of the device.
