3 Description

The TIOL221 transceiver integrates dual low-power

output drivers with active reverse polarity protection.

When the device is connected to an IO-Link controller

through a three-wire interface, the controller can

initiate communication, and exchange data with the

remote node while the TIOL221 acts as a complete

physical layer for the communication. The device also

integrates an auxiliary DI channel.

The device is capable of withstanding up to

1.2kV (500Ω) of IEC 61000-4-5 surge and features

integrated reverse polarity protection. In addition to

the SPI interface for configurability and expanded

diagnostic capability, a simple pin-programmable

interface allows easy interfacing with the controller

circuits. The output current limit can be configured

using either an external resistor or per-configured

limits via SPI interface. TIOL221 can be configured

to generate wake-up pulse, and be used in IO-link

controller applications. Fault reporting and internal

protection functions are provided for undervoltage,

overcurrent and overtemperature conditions.
