STEVAL-IFP016V2

The STEVAL-IFP016V2 is a demo board based on L6360 monolithic IO link master port IC. The L6360 is compliant with PHY2 (3 wires) supporting COM1 (4.8Kbaud), COM2 (38.4Kbaud) and COM3 (230.4Kbaud) modes. This IO link communication master transceiver demo board is a modular and customizable application that interfaces externally with the microcontroller. The purpose of the board is to demonstrate the capability of the L6360 monolithic IO link master, as communication transceiver for multiple I/Os. The board uses input signal from the microcontroller and outputs the 24V. The board demonstrates that the L6360 is both IO link master port mode and standard IO mode compliant. A large GND area on the printed circuit board has been designed in order to minimize noise and ensure good thermal performance. The small size of the L6360 package with a reduced pin number, along with the small size of the application area, allow the user to work in applications where space constraint is critical.
