New Digital Input Devices from Maxim Use Less Power
Press Release Summary:
Maxim’s new digital input devices have a smaller footprint, while achieving a higher power throughput. The MAX22190 is an 8-channel octal digital input with Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). It has accurate input current limiters, built-in surge protection of >1kV, and wire break detection in a 5mm x 5mm package. The MAX22191 is a single-channel, parasitically powered digital input. It also has accurate input current limiters and 250ns (max) propagation delay in a 2.8mm x 2.9mm package. The MAX22192 has an 8-channel octal digital input with isolated SPI, wire break detection and accurate input current limiters in a 6mm x 10mm package. The MAX22195 is a high-speed octal digital input with parallel output and accurate input current limiters. It has a 300ns (max) propagation delay, parallel interface, low power, low heat dissipation, fault tolerance with built-in diagnostics. It is built in a 5mm x 5mm 32-TQFN package.

Maxim's Digital Input ICs Deliver 50% Smaller Footprint, 60% Lower Power and 6x Faster Throughput
Extended digital IO family addresses Industry 4.0 challenges
SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Designers of industrial equipment striving to meet the size, power and performance requirements of Industry 4.0 applications can now turn to an expanded family of digital input devices from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. (NASDAQ: MXIM). One of the new devices, MAX22192, is integrated into the company's Go-IO programmable logic controller (PLC) reference design, also announced today.

As manufacturing becomes increasingly automated, there is a stronger need for real-time decision-making and feedback-loop mechanisms. These intelligent Industry 4.0 systems require digital input ICs inside the PLCs to receive on/off status signals. Yet, for ease of integration throughout manufacturing environments, the devices must be robust, high-performing and compact.
Maxim's expanded portfolio of IEC61131-2-compliant digital input devices offers the industry's smallest solution size (by as much as 50%), features the lowest power dissipation (by as much as 60%), is up to 6x faster and has the most robust performance (integrating 1kV of surge protection and integrated diagnostics). In addition, the family also includes a parasitically powered digital input that reduces power dissipation by up to 60 percent and does not require a discrete isolated power supply.
The newest digital input devices include:
- MAX22190 8-channel octal digital input with Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI), accurate input current limiters, built-in surge protection of >1kV and wire break detection in a 5mm x 5mm package
- MAX22191 single-channel, parasitically powered digital input with accurate input current limiters and 250ns (max) propagation delay in a 2.8mm x 2.9mm package
- MAX22192 8-channel octal digital input with isolated SPI, wire break detection and accurate input current limiters in a 6mm x 10mm package
- MAX22195 high-speed octal digital input with parallel output and accurate input current limiters, 300ns (max) propagation delay, parallel interface, low power, low heat dissipation, fault tolerance with built-in diagnostics, configurability and a robust design in a 5mm x 5mm 32-TQFN package
These products enhance a digital IO family that also includes the MAX14912 and MAX14913 octal high-speed, switch/push-pull driver with integrated surge protection, diagnostics and fast/safe demagnetization; the MAX14914 universal digital IO with surge protection, high-side switch/push-pull driver/digital input and an SPI interface; and the MAX14483 6-channel, high-density, high-speed, low-power digital isolator optimized for daisy chained SPI applications.
Key Advantages
- Smallest Solution Size: adds robust functionality to the PLC in a 50 percent smaller footprint than comparable solutions to empower adaptive manufacturing
- Reduced Power Dissipation: a parasitically powered digital input reduces power dissipation by up to 60 percent and does not require a discrete isolated power supply
- Most Robust Performance: all parts in the family have on-board diagnostics, while individual parts offer performance-enhancing features including:
- Built-in >1kV surge protection for increased system robustness and the elimination of eight external transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diodes
- Extensive diagnostics such as open-wire/wire-break for increased factory uptime
- High Speed:
- 6x faster digital inputs than industry alternatives
Commentary
