Introduction¶
Maxim’s Mojave (MAXREFDES42#) reference design features a resistance to digital temperature sensor which can also detect multiple faults. The IO-Link communication protocol enables quick sensor configuration and reduces cabling while featuring a robust, medium speed, communication protocol with power, enabling higher powered sensors than a 4-20mA loop.
