Introduction
Resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) are resistors that increase resistance when temperature increases. Accuracy, stability, and repeatability over a wide temperature range make RTDs excellent in a multitude of industrial applications. RTDs are made of many materials and often they are made of platinum to avoid corrosion and oxidation. The PT100 is one of the most popular RTDs where the resistance is approximately 100Ω at 0°C, hence the name PT100.
IO-Link is the first open, field bus agnostic, low-cost, point-to-point serial communication protocol, used for communicating with sensors and actuators, that has been adopted as an international standard (IEC 61131-9).1 IO-Link finally standardizes interoperability of industrial equipment from all over the world. IO-Link can directly function from the PLC or can be converted from all standard field busses to IO-Link through a gateway, quickly making it the defacto standard for universally communicating with smart sensors like the MAXREFDES42#.
Maxim Integrated and IQ2 Development collaborated in designing the MAXREFDES42# as an IO-Link version 1.1-compliant IO-Link RTD temperature sensor reference design. The MAXREFDES42# design consists of an industry-standard Maxim Integrated IO-Link device transceiver (MAX14821), an efficient high-voltage step-down converter (MAX15062B), a Renesas® ultra-low-power 16-bit microcontroller (RL78) utilizing IQ2 Development’s IO-Link device stack, and a highly integrated RTD-to-digital converter (MAX31865). Figure 1 shows the system block diagram.
Figure 1. The MAXREFDES42# reference design block diagram.
Detailed Description of Hardware
The MAXREFDES42# IO-Link RTD temp sensor consists of 4 main blocks: IO-Link transceiver, step-down converter, RTD-to-digital converter, and microcontroller as shown in Figure 1.
The MAX14821 IO-Link device transceiver is IO-Link version 1.1/1.0 physical layer compliant with configurable outputs (push-pull, pnp, or npn), reverse-polarity/short-circuit protection, and extensive fault monitoring, all in a tiny 2.5mm x 2.5mm WLP package.
The MAX15062B is a high-voltage, synchronous step-down converter that efficiently converts 24V to 5V in a tiny 2mm x 2mm, 8-pin TDFN package. The PWM operation maintains a constant frequency during all operating loads. The MAX15062 comes in many versions. The MAXREFDES42# temperature sensor uses the MAX15062B, which is preset for a 5V output.
The MAX31865 is an RTD-to-digital converter optimized for platinum RTDs. An external 400Ω 0.1% reference resistor (R13) with a typical temperature coefficient of 0.2ppm/°C sets the sensitivity for a PT100 RTD. If a PT1000 RTD is preferred, use a precision external 4kΩ resistor instead. The reference resistor value is also stored as an IO-Link parameter in the sensor and needs to match the corresponding reference resistor used. The highly integrated RTD-to-digital converter is available in a 20-pin TQFN package.
An ultra-low-power RL78/G1A microcontroller with current consumption down to 66µA/MHz provides system control. It features 64KB on-chip programmable flash memory, 4KB on-chip data flash, and operates down to 1.8V, all in a tiny 3mm x 3mm LGA package.
For protection, the MAXREFDES42# features transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes at the IO-Link interface. Transient voltage suppressor (TVS) diodes are not all equal. The SDC36 TVS diodes have a clamping voltage less than 55V and meet both IEC 61000-4-2 (ESD) and IEC 61000-4-4 (EFT). There are many smaller TVS diodes on the market that cannot meet these specifications.
The on-board female M12 connector allows off-the-shelf RTDs, such as an Omega PR-26E-3-100-A-M6-0150-M12-2 or PR-26A-3-100-A-M6-0150-M12-2, to connect to the board using a standard M12 extension cable as shown in Figure 2a. The reference design ships uncalibrated and comes with a 2-wire PT100 RTD located in the gray terminal block TB1. Important: If you connect an external RTD via the extension cable to the female M12 connector, you must remove the 2-wire RTD inside the gray terminal block TB1. The board also contains a male M12 connector for easy connection to a compliant IO-Link master using a standard M12 cable. The MAXREFDES42# typically consumes 11mA at 25°C.

Description of Software
The MAXREFDES42# was verified using IQ2 Development’s iqTool software version 1.1.0.4, which comes with the purchase of the iqInterface IO-Link master hardware. IQ2 Development’s latest source code and documentation are available at the links below.

Detailed Description of Firmware
The MAXREFDES42# ships preprogrammed as a working IO-Link temperature sensor ready to connect to an IO-Link master. The firmware targets a Renesas RL78 microcontroller and follows the simple flowchart shown in Figure 4. The firmware is written in C using the IAR embedded workbench from IAR Systems and utilizes IQ2 Development’s IO-Link device stack.
Figure 4. The MAXREFDES42# firmware flowchart.
After hot plug-in, the MAXREFDES42# waits for a wake-up signal from the IO-Link master. After receiving the wake-up signal, the MAXREFDES42# synchronizes to the IO-Link master’s 230.4kbps baud rate (COM3). Communication parameters are exchanged. The MAXREFDES42# then starts a cyclic data exchange every 3ms by sending the sensor process data to the IO-Link master. If the sensor is removed, the IO-Link master will detect a missing sensor.
Detailed Description of Use Cases
There are two different use cases that should be considered before purchasing the MAXREFDES42#. Use case #1 simply includes the MAXREFDES42# with a user-supplied IO-Link master and an IO-Link cable as shown in Figure 5. The system is preprogrammed to operate in this configuration. Use case #2 is where the entire firmware development system is needed as shown in Figure 6.
