MAX22520
One-Time Programmable (OTP)
Industrial Sensor Output Driver
General Description
Benefits and Features
● High Configurability Supports a Wide Range of
The MAX22520 24V line driver for industrial sensors incor-
porates a one-time programmable (OTP) analog interface
for signal conditioning of binary switching sensors. Sensor
calibration and configuration settings can be permanently
programmed with the inline data interface using one-time
programming (OTP). Additionally, an accurate integrated
linear regulator provides a programmable (3.3V or 5V)
low-noise supply for analog signal sensing circuitry.
Sensor Designs
• Programmable Driver Configuration: High-Side
(PNP), Low-Side (NPN), or Push-Pull
• Programmable Driver Current Limit: 100mA (min),
200mA (min)
• Programmable Linear Regulator Voltage: 3.3V
(typ), 5V (typ)
®
• Input Comparator with Programmable Thresholds
• Digital Potentiometer with Programmable 6-bit Tap
• PWM Oscillator with Programmable Duty Cycles
• 4.75V/8V (min) to +36V Supply Voltage
• Integrated LED Driver for Visual Feedback
The driver output (DO) is configurable using the Maxim
®
1-Wire protocol and an OTP interface to permanently
operate in a normally-open or normally-closed state
and in a high-side (PNP), low-side (NPN), or push-pull
configuration. The maximum driver load current can be
programmed to 100mA (min) or 200mA (min).
● Robust Design for Harsh Industrial Environments
Configuration and OTP programming are done using

• Short Circuit Protection on DO
• Thermal Shutdown Protection
• ±6kV IEC 61000-4-2 Air-Gap ESD Protection
• ±6kV IEC 61000-4-2 Contact Discharge ESD

, DO, and GND. This use of the standard three-wire
interface pins simplifies programming at the end-of-line,
when the sensor is already in its final housing.
The MAX22520 also features a programmable com-
parator, PWM oscillator, and digital potentiometer. These
integrated functions further support sensor calibration for
analog sensing circuitry. Additionally, an on-board LED
driver provides visual feedback of the logic state of the
sensor DO output.
Robust protection enables the MAX22520 to function in

The MAX22520 operates from a wide 4.75V/8V to 36V
supply and is available in a 20-bump wafer-level package
(WLP) (2mm x 2.5mm, 0.5mm pitch). The device operates
over the -40°C to +105°C temperature range.
