MAX14838/MAX14839
24V Pin-Configurable Industrial Sensor
Output Drivers
General Description
The MAX14838/MAX14839 24V/100mA drivers are
optimized for use in industrial sensors. These devices
integrate all of the high-voltage (24V) circuitry commonly
found in industrial sensors, including a configurable PNP/
NPN/push-pull driver and an integrated linear regulator
that meets common sensor power requirements.
The MAX14838/MAX14839 are pin-configurable. Logic
inputs allow the driver to be configured for high-side
(PNP), low-side (NPN), or push-pull operation. An
additional input allows the user to select between normal-
ly-open and normally-closed logic.
The MAX14838 features an onboard 5V linear regulator,
while the MAX14839 features a 3.3V linear regulator.
Each device includes two LED drivers for visual feedback.
One LED driver reflects the output logic status and the
other is a general-purpose driver that can be used to
signal a fault condition.
The DO output, supply (V
CC
), and ground (GND) pins are
reverse polarity-protected and are protected against IEC
ESD and surge events.
The MAX14838 and MAX14839 operate from a wide sup-
ply range and are available in a 12-pin TDFN-EP package
(3mm x 3mm) or a 12-bump wafer-level package (WLP)
(2.1mm x 1.6mm) and operate over the -40°C to +105°C
temperature range.

Stresses beyond those listed under “Absolute Maximum Ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, and functional operation of the device at these
or any other conditions beyond those indicated in the operational sections of the specifications is not implied. Exposure to absolute maximum rating conditions for extended periods may affect
device reliability.

Note 2:
All units are production tested at T
A
= +25°C. Specifications over temperature are guaranteed by design.
Note 3:
Currents into the device as positive; all currents out of the device are negative. All voltages are referenced to ground, unless
otherwise noted.
Note 4:
See the
DO Short-Circuit and Overcurrent Protection
section for detailed information.
Note 5:
ESD protection for VCC is achieved only with an external capacitor connected from VCC to GND. Connect 100nF capacitor
between VCC and GND for air-gap and contact discharge ESD.
