Maxim Announces Transceiver That Reduces Power Loss and Supports Factory Automation
Published2017.06.20 10:21Maxim Integrated Korea has launched the dual-channel IO-Link master transceiver 'MAX14819'. The MAX14819 supports communication for Industry 4.0 applications by reducing power loss by up to 50%.
Maxim's advanced factory automation portfolio enhances a company's Industry 4.0 competitiveness. The MAX14819 emits 50% less heat than other IO-Link master solutions by lowering on-resistance and supply current and optimizing the current limiter architecture.
The 65V absolute maximum ratings and reverse voltage/current protection fully comply with IO-Link (1.1.2) and SIO (IEC61131-2, IEC61131-9) compliance. The MAX14819 also supports NPN type sensors.
The L+ power supply controller can set current limits and features voltage and current protection, supporting robust communication for Industry 4.0 applications with only the lowest power. The Unified Framer/Universal Asynchronous Transmitter/Receiver (UART) enables a flexible architecture by maximizing scalability and increasing cost efficiency with just a single microcontroller (MCU).
Timothy Leung, Senior Business Manager for Industry & Healthcare at Maxim Integrated, stated, “Maxim, a member of the IO-Link Consortium and the Japan PROFIBUS Association, plans to provide high-performance, ultra-low-power solutions for the industrial market through the newly released IO-Link transceivers. The MAX14819 further enhances Maxim’s IO-Link technology to create a flexible manufacturing environment and improve both factory output and operational efficiency.”

Maxim Launches International Electrotechnical Commission-Compliant Step-Down DC-DC Converter
Maxim Integrated Korea has launched the Maxim Himalaya synchronous step-down DC-DC converters 'MAX17572' and 'MAX17574'. These products comply with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) and Safety Integrity Level (SIL) standards, ensuring long-term system stability. System designers can leverage the high-efficiency converter to reduce power loss by up to 40% and solution size by up to 50% compared to competitive solutions. The Maxim Himalaya step-down DC-DC converters MAX17572/MAX17574 deliver over 90% efficiency at 50~100% load current. By integrating MOSFETs and compensation functionality, they reduce solution size and operate at high switching frequencies and low minimum on-time. Notably, the internal compensation function enables rapid design implementation by supporting all combinations of output voltage and switching frequency without affecting bandwidth.
