AS8520

Companion IC for LIN sensor/actuator slaves

Description

The AS8520 is an IC dedicated to automotive battery sensor systems and small actuator control units like window lifts or similar automotive or industrial applications. It provides a LIN transceiver, a voltage regulator to operate the electronic unit and its microcontroller from car battery supply, a serial interface to communicate configuration, diagnostic and status data and application specific devices such as relay drivers and precision resistive attenuator with disable.

Key Features

  • LIN 2.0/2.1 transceiver, load independent slew control
  • LDO for 5V or 3.3V output – selected by factory programming
  • Serial interface for confi guration, diagnosis and
  • status readout, watch dog trigger and relay driver control
  • Normal-, standby or sleep operating modes
  • Window watch dog
  • Reset generator with factory programmablereset time
  • Output voltage monitor with factoryadjustable level
  • Resistive attenuator with disable for batteryvoltage measurement
  • Unique chip ID for traceability
  • QFN 24 package

Applications

  • Window lift
  • Sunroof
  • Seat positioning
  • Battery sensor with current sensor in the battery plus rail
