Semiconductors Engineering semiconductorMELEXIS MLX81107/MLX81109 LIN Controller ICs combine high degrees of built-in functionality and low unit costs. Freely-programmable, monolithic devices are able to address growing demands within the automobile industry for LIN-based switches, actuators, drivers, sensor interfaces and LED lighting systems. Both devices incorporate a physical layer LIN transceiver, LIN controller, voltage regulator, 16-bit RISC-based microcontroller, 32kBytes of Flash memory and 20-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC), as well as possessing 16-bit pulse width modulation (PWM) capabilities. Product is compliant with LIN 2.0, LIN 2.1 and LIN 2.2, as well as SAE J2602.http://www.melexis.com
