L6360 and L6362A
Embracing the Industry 4.0
revolution
Master and device solution for IO-Link and general-purpose
(SIO-mode) transceivers
ST’s L6360 and L6362A enable
a master and device solution
for IO-Link and general-purpose
transceivers via a single
3-wire connection (PHY2).
They represent a compact,
efficient and robust solution for
Smart Industry (Industry 4.0)
applications.
The two monolithic ICs meet
all the requirements of modern
sensors and actuators such as
fast and easy configurability,
wide application spectrum,
minimum power dissipation
for increased efficiency and
full diagnostic and protection
functions for enhanced reliability.
The half-bridge output stages
can be configured as highside, low-side or push-pull for
maximum design flexibility.

STMicroelectronics’ L6360 and L6362A
transceivers transmit and receive digital
data via a single 3-wire connection (PHY2)
supporting COM1 (4.8 kbaud), COM2 (38.4
kbaud) and COM3 (230.4 kbaud) modes.
Both devices integrate a selectable linear
regulator.
In the master L6360 a fast mode I²C bus
makes the system highly configurable and
easily programmable.
High reliability is provided through
programmable cut-off current, delay time,
They are compliant with burst tests, surge
tests and ESD immunity tests, based on
the IO-Link specification and SIO mode
requirements thus representing an ideal
solution for driving digital sensors in Industry
4.0 applications.
Supply voltage is monitored and low
voltage conditions are detected.
The devices are housed in tiny packages:
L6360 in a 26-lead QFN (3.5 x 5 x 1 mm)
and L6362A in a 12-lead DFN (3 x 3 x 1 mm).
