Atmel's Latest LIN System Basis Chip Family Members Continue Industry's Best EMC Performance

Heilbronn, Germany (ots/PRNewswire)

Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today the
availability of  its ATA6623 and ATA6625 LIN system basis chips
(SBCs), which are designed in  compliance with the LIN 2.0
specification and the SAEJ2602 standard. The new  devices incorporate
Atmel's 2nd generation LIN transceiver that provides the industry's
best EMC performance and has obtained approval from major OEMs
worldwide. Thanks to Atmel's high-voltage BCD-on-SOI technology
SMARTIS(TM) and the SO8 power package, the devices can operate at
supply voltages up to 40V. Applications include automotive comfort
applications such as door modules, seat control or intelligent
sensors, and powertrain applications.
As with all Atmel LIN ICs, the new ATA6623 and ATA6625 provide
excellent ESD stability. They have an ESD stability of greater than 6
kV, which is actually the standard for modules with external
components.
The new LIN devices are highly integrated. In addition to the LIN
transceiver, they also incorporate a low-drop voltage regulator
(ATA6623: 3.3V output voltage, ATA6625: 5V output voltage). As a
result, system costs can be reduced by approximately 20%. Less board
space is needed, which makes these devices ideally suited for
applications requiring very small footprints. The SMARTIS process
uses SOI (silicon-on-insulator) substrate, which results in an
extremely low leakage current and a significant reduction in
crosstalk between the analog and digital circuits on the same die as
well as latch-up-free operation at high temperatures. The use of SOI
also results in lower parasitic effects, which improves EMC
performance.
The ATA6623 and ATA6625 offer several protective features such as
overtemperature shutdown and full protection against short circuits.
The ATA6623/25 also meet strict automotive qualification demands and
can withstand transients according to ISO/TR 7637/1.
Availability and Pricing: ATA6623 and ATA6625 samples are now
available in lead-free SO8 packages with pricing starting at US $0.89
each for 10k piece quantities.
