MAX14914, MAX14914A,
High-Side Switch with Settable
MAX14914B
Current-Limiting, Push-Pull Driver Option and
Digital Input Configuration
General Description
Benefits and Features
The MAX14914, MAX14914A and MAX14914B are the
family of high-side/push-pull drivers that operate as both
an industrial digital output (DO) and an industrial digital in-
put (DI). The MAX14914 family features full IEC 61131-2
compliance in both their DO and DI modes of operation.
The high-side switch current is resistor settable from
135mA (min) to 1.3A (min). The high-side driver’s on-re-
sistance is 120mΩ (typ) at 125°C ambient temperature.
Optional push-pull operation allows driving of cables and
fast discharge of load capacitance. The output voltage
is monitored and indicated through the DOI_LVL pin for
safety applications.

The MAX14914 family complies with Type 1, Type 2, or
Type 3 input characteristics when configured for DI opera-
tion.
● Reduces BOM Count and PCB Space
• Small 4mm x 4mm TQFN Package
• Internal Clamp for Fast Inductive Load Turn-Off
• On-Chip 5V Regulator
The MAX14914A is a low-DOI-leakage version of
MAX14914, designed to work together with the
MAX22000 Industrial Configurable Analog IO device. The
MAX14914B features a high-side switch overcurrent indi-
cation.
● Provides Flexibility
• Configurable as a Digital Input, or a High-Side or
Push-Pull Digital Output
• Low-Leakage Mode (MAX14914A) Allows High
Accuracy AIO/DIO applications
• Resistor Settable Current Limiting for the High-Side
Switch (135mA to 1.3A)
Applications
