Avago adds 30V line drivers for industrial
automation apps
Avago Technologies has announced 3 new high-voltage line
drivers, AEIC-7272, AEIC-7273 and AEIC-2631 for the industrial
automation provides the additional supply voltage up to
30V. Avago says with integrated current limiting and thermal
shutdown features, the line drivers protect against shorts
to assure highly-reliable operation in harsh environments
for industrial encoder and sensor interfaces, industrial
programmable logic controllers and servo drive applications.
The new line drivers are designed to meet industrial standards
for encoder applications and offers operating temperature
range from -55° to 125° C for the AEIC-7272 and
AEIC-7273 devices and -40° to 125°C for the AEIC-2631
device.
"These new high-performance line drivers improve drivability
and assurance of power supply, with the durability required
for rigorous industrial environments," said Hassan
Hussain, general manager of the Motion Control Products
Division at Avago. "Avago can now serve as a one-stop
shop for complete encoder solutions, providing customers
the best possible value by offering the line drivers with
our market-leading portfolio of motion control encoders
and decoders for industrial automation applications."
The AEIC-2631 device operates in a wide supply voltage
range of 4.75V to 30V and features Tri-State outputs. The
AEIC-7272 device features Tri-State outputs and the AEIC-7273
device features NPN Open-Collector outputs, and each operates
from 3.5V to 30V. The line drivers' thermal shutdown feature
is accomplished by monitoring junction temperature and comparing
this to a band gap reference on-chip.
