MAX14914, MAX14914A,
MAX14914B
High-Side Switch with Settable
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 input (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-resistance 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.
● Reduces Power and Heat Dissipation
• 240mΩ (max) HS RON at TA = 125°C
• 0.9mA (typ) High-Side DO-Mode Supply Current
• Accurate Internal Current Limiter for Type 1, Type
2, and Type 3 Digital Inputs
The MAX14914 family complies with Type 1, Type 2, or
Type 3 input characteristics when configured for DI operation.
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 indication.

Detailed Description
The MAX14914 family of parts is a high-side/push-pull driver that operates as an industrial digital output and can also
operate as an industrial digital input. The MAX14914 family is specified for operation with supplies up to 40V. The highside switch current limiting is resistor settable from 135mA (min) to 1.3A (min). The high-side driver on-resistance is
120mΩ (typ) and 240mΩ (max) at +125°C ambient temperature. Optional push-pull operation allows driving of cables
and fast discharge of load capacitance. A separate digital DOI_LVL allows supervision of the DOI voltage in DO mode
for safety applications. The MAX14914 family complies with IEC Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3 input characteristics when
configured for digital input operation.
The difference between the MAX14914, MAX14914A and MAX14914B versions is summarized in Table 1, and the
summary of the control signals is shown in Table 2.

5V Supply and Regulator
The MAX14914 family requires a 5V supply on the V5 pin for normal operation. This 5V supply can come from an external
supply or from the internal 5V linear regulator. Connect REGIN pin to VDD to enable the internal regulator. Connect
REGIN pin to V5 pin to disable the internal regulator, when an external 5V is used. The internal 5V regulator also can
power the external loads/circuits with of up to 20mA.
Logic Interface
The logic interface features flexible logic levels, allowing interfacing to a wide range of common logic. The VL supply
input defines the logic levels and can be set in the range of 2.5V to 5.5V. Connect a 0.1µF capacitor to VL.
Digital Output Operation
The driver can be configured for high-side (PP pin is driven low) or push-pull (PP pin is driven high) operation. In DO
high-side mode, the DOI output voltage is high (VDD) when the logic level on IN pin is high, and three-state (Hi-Z), when
the logic level on IN pin is low. In DO Push-Pull mode, the DOI output voltage follows the logic level on IN pin. The highside driver has 240mΩ (max) on-resistance at 500mA and TA = 125°C. The DOI voltage can go below ground, as will
occur during inductive load demagnetization. An internal clamping diode limits the negative excursion to (VDD - VCL). See
Driving Inductive Loads for details. The low-side (LS) switch speeds up the discharge of RC loads in Push-Pull mode.

Low DOI Leakage Mode
The MAX14914A features a low-leakage mode in which the DOI leakage current is less than 0.4μA with temperature up
to +85°C and DOI between 0V and +15V. This is useful when the DOI pin is connected to an analog input/output (I/O)
line and does not affect the performance of the analog I/O device. Low-leakage mode is enabled when the VL voltage
is held low below VL_POR (min) = 1.12V. Note that the logic inputs, like IN, DI_EN and PP, can be held high or low in
low-leakage mode.
Current Limit Adjustment
The MAX14914 family has a settable current limiting of the HS switch. The load current is limited to between 135mA
(min) and 1.3A (min), depending on the value of the resistor used at the CLIM pin. A short-circuit or overcurrent generally
creates a temperature rise in the chip; both the HS and LS FET’s temperatures are continuously monitored. When any
switch temperatures exceed 170°C, the DOI output is put in Hi-Z until the temperature falls by 15°C. Connect a resistor
(RLIM) from CLIM to GND to set the required current limit. The current is given by:
ILIM = K x VLIM / RLIM
where, VLIM = 1.21V and K = 35.6 x 103. If no resistor is connected to CLIM (i.e., CLIM is kept floating) or RLIM is more
than 440k, the ILIM is internally set to 1.1A (typ). If the RLIM resistor is less than 12.9k (typ), the output is turned off.
CLIM is short-circuit protected.
Use the formulas below to validate the accuracy range
ILIM_MAX = ILIM x (1 + |ICLIM_HS_GE|/100) + |ICLIM_HS_OE|
ILIM_MIN = ILIM x (1 - |ICLIM_HS_GE|/100) - |ICLIM_HS_OE|
Low-Side Current Limit
The low-side transistor has fixed-current limiting, when enabled in push-pull mode (PP driven high). The low-side driver
limits current at 200mA (typ). The load current is actively controlled and the low-side switch only turns off if the driver
temperature has fallen by the hysteresis value.

Overcurrent Signaling
The MAX14914B features an overcurrent output (OV_CURR), which provides a diagnostic signal as soon as the load
current exceeds the high-side driver set current limit in both high-side and push-pull DO modes (DI_EN = low and PP = x).
When the high-side FET detects an overcurrent for a duration longer than 8μs, the OV_CURR open-drain signal becomes
active low and remains low until the overcurrent condition disappears. The overcurrent condition also disappears every
time the high-side switch turns off when a short-circuit condition exists and the FET turns off for thermal shutdown
protection. Note that OV_CURR does not signal an overcurrent on the low-side driver in push-pull mode. The typical
application circuit with the overcurrent signaling is shown in Figure 5.

Short-Circuit Protection
Short circuits at the DOI output generates high transient current until the active current limiting kicks in. In order to protect
the MAX14914_ against high currents that can be seen over an extended time, especially if the output is switching at a
high rate into a short circuit, the MAX14914_ enters a protect mode. When the MAX14914_ detects that the DOI current
is over 3x higher than the set current limit, the driver is switched to protect mode with reduced turn-on slew rate of the
rising and falling edges for a duration of 4ms. The FAULT signal does not become active and the chip operates normally,
but with reduced slew rate. If the cause for the short circuit is not removed, the protect mode will remain for an additional
4ms until the short circuit is removed.
Overvoltage Lockout
When the VDD supply voltage exceeds the OVLO threshold voltage of 42.2V (typ), for a time duration larger than 200μs,
the high-side and low-side switches automatically turn off. They remain off until VDD is reduced to below the threshold
OVLO voltage minus hysteresis. When VDD is above the OVLO threshold, the OV_VDD output is active.

Undervoltage Lockout
When the VDD, V5, or VL supply voltages are under their respective UVLO thresholds the DOI driver is turned off (threestated). DOI automatically turns back on, once VDD, V5, and VL rise above their UVLO threshold.
Note that when VL ≤ 1.12V, the MAX14914ATE+ and MAX14914BATE+ force the OV_VDD pin low while the
MAX14914AATE+ keeps this pin in a Hi-Z state.
Driving Capacitive Loads
When charging/discharging purely capacitive loads with a push-pull driver, the driver dissipates power that is proportional
to the switching frequency. The power can be estimated by PD ~ C x VDD2 x f, where C is the load capacitance, VDD is
the supply voltage, and f is the switching frequency. For example, in an application with a 10nF load and 10kHz switching
frequency, the driver dissipates 130mW at VDD = 36V. Therefore, switching a higher capacitance can induce thermal
shutdown and that limits the operational frequency.
Driving Inductive Loads
The DOI pins can be pulled below ground potential when the high-side transistor is off. The MAX14914_ has an internal
clamping diode from VDD to DOI that limits the negative voltage excursion to (VDD - 55V) typ. Turning off the current
flowing in ground-connected inductive loads results in a negative voltage at the DOI pin limited to VCL below VDD by the
internal clamping diodes.
The MAX14914_ features SafeDemag, meaning that there are no limits for load inductance that it can demagnetize, for
load currents of up to 600mA. Turn-off of large inductive loads with currents larger than 600mA requires an external
clamping diode, as shown in Figure 6. The clamping (breakdown) voltage of such diode needs to be less than VCL: VZ <
VCL. Ensure that the Zener diode is able to dissipate the energy.

Monitoring of the DOI Output
The driver output (DOI) is monitored in both high-side and push-pull modes and corresponding logic level can be seen
through the inversed DOI_LVL logic output. The threshold voltage for the DOI_LVL comparator is between 1.5V and
2.0V. This feature is useful for functional safety applications.

Digital Input Operation
The MAX14914_ can operate as an industrial digital input. Drive the DI_EN pin high to enable digital input operation.
The 2.3mA/7mA internal current sink on DIO is then enabled and the DOI_LVL logic output presents the inverse of the
DOI logic, with threshold voltages compliant with IEC61131-2 Type 1, Type 2, or Type 3 levels. IN DI mode, the PP
input allows selection between IEC Type 1/3 and Type 2 input characteristics. Set PP low for Type 1/3 compatibility and
set PP high for Type 2 compatibility. In order to allow the DOI input voltage to go above the VDD supply voltage and
preventing race condition, an external Schottky diode can be placed in series with the VDD supply, as shown in Figure
7. Alternatively, an external pMOS transistor can be placed in series with the 24V supply, as shown in Figure 8, to allow
the DOI voltage to exceed VDD. The gate of the pMOS can be driven by the open drain OV_VDD output (MAX14914 and
MAX14914A only). When DI_EN = high, the OV_VDD pin turns the pMOS off permanently. Therefore, VDD is one forward
diode voltage (of the pMOS) below the external 24V field supply, when the DOI voltage is less than the field supply
voltage. The MAX14914_ is parasitically powered by the external DOI input, when the DOI voltage is higher than the VDD
supply. Note that the power dissipation increases strongly when Type 2 DI mode is selected (PP = high), particularly with
high DOI input voltages due to the 7mA (typ) current sink. When the VDOI voltage exceeds 42.5V (typ) the sink current
is automatically decreased from 7mA (typ) to 2.3mA (typ) to reduce the power dissipation.

Applications Information
Layout Considerations
The PCB designer should follow some critical recommendations in order to get the best performance from the design.
● Keep the input/output traces as short as possible. Avoid using vias to make low-inductance paths for
the signals.
● Have a solid ground plane underneath the high-speed signal layer.
A suppressor/TVS diode should be used between VDD and PGND to clamp positive-surge transients on the VDD supply
input and surges from DOI. The standoff voltage should be higher than the maximum operating voltage of the device
while the breakdown voltage should be below 65V. As long field-supply cables can generate large voltage transients on
the VDD supply due to large dI/dt, it is recommended to add a large 10µF capacitor on VDD at the point of field supply
entry.
Surge Protection
DOI is protected against ±2kV/42Ω surge pulses as per IEC61000-4-5. Thus, no external surge suppression is needed
on DOI. A suppressor/TVS diode (SMBJ40A, for example) should be used between VDD and PGND to clamp high-surge
transients on the VDD supply input and surges from DOI. The breakdown voltage of TVS should be higher than the
maximum operating voltage of the equipment, while the maximum clamping voltage should be below 65V.
Conducted RF Immunity
To insure that the DOI driver, configured for HS mode with the switch turned off, is not turned on during IEC61000-4-6
RF immunity testing, a 10nF capacitor should be applied between the DOI output and PGND. For PP mode a capacitor
on DOI is not needed.
Reverse Current into DOI
Reverse current flow into DOI pin in DO mode will heat up the device and can destroy it thermally. The allowed
reverse current depends on VDD, the ambient temperature and the thermal resistance. At 25°C ambient temperature the
continuous reverse current into DOI pin should be limited to 250mA at VDD = 40V and 400mA at VDD = 24V. Using a
pMOS transistor or a Schottky diode (as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8) removes the reverse current flow path into the
24V field supply.
