General Description
The MAX13325/MAX13326 dual audio line drivers provide
a reliable differential interface between automotive audio
components. The devices feature differential inputs and
outputs, integrated output diagnostics, and are controlled
using an I2C interface or operate in stand-alone mode.
The outputs can deliver up to 4VRMS into 100I loads.
The MAX13325 buffers analog audio signals for trans-
mission over long cable distances with a fixed gain of
12dB, whereas the MAX13326 provides a 0dB fixed
gain. The diagnostics on the outputs report conditions
on a per channel basis, including short to GND, short
to battery, overcurrent, overtemperature, and excessive
offset. The output amplifiers can drive capacitive loads
up to 4nF to ground and 3nF differentially.
The outputs are protected according to IEC 61000-4-2
Q8kV Contact Discharge, and Q15kV Air Gap. The
MAX13325/MAX13326 are specified from -40NC to
+105NC and are available in a 28-pin TSSOP package
with an exposed pad.

Detailed Description
The MAX13325/MAX13326 audio line drivers are designed
to transmit audio data across noisy environments. The dif-
ferential interface is highly resistant to noise injection from
external sources common to automotive applications.
The MAX13325/MAX13326 operate in stand-alone or
I2C-compatible mode with diagnostic outputs capable
of detecting short to GND or battery, overcurrent, over-
temperature, or excessive offset. A short across another
audio output signal line is also protected.

I2C and Stand-Alone Diagnostics
When the DIAG bit and the appropriate mask bits are set
to 1, the MAX13325/MAX13326 enter diagnostic mode.
In this mode, the MAX13325/MAX13326 detect short
to GND, short to battery, overcurrent condition, over-
temperature condition, excessive offset, and report the
diagnosis using the I2C serial interface, FLAG bit, and
the FLAG output.
For stand-alone mode, there exists a 500ms stand-alone
fault retry function (for autoretry) until the fault goes
away. The FLAG output is pulsed to indicate a fault.
Output Short to VDD
When in diagnostic mode, the MAX13325/MAX13326
detect if any of the differential outputs is shorted to VDD
or battery. Upon detection of the short to VDD or battery,
the faulted channel is switched off and its output goes
into a high-impedance state. The fault is reported using
the I2C interface and the FLAG output. See Table 11.

Applications Information
Serial Interface
Writing to the MAX13325/MAX13326 using I2C requires
that first the master sends a START (S) condition fol-
lowed by the device’s I2C address. After the address,
the master sends the register address of the register
that is to be programmed. The master then ends com-
munication by issuing a STOP (P) condition to relinquish
control of the bus, or a Repeated START (Sr) condition to
communicate to another I2C slave (see Figure 1).
Bit Transfer
Each SCL rising edge transfers one data bit. The data
on SDA must remain stable during the high portion of the
SCL clock pulse (see Figure 2). Changes in SDA while
SCL is high are read as control signals (see the START
and STOP Conditions section). When the serial interface
is inactive, SDA and SCL idle high.

MAX13325/MAX13326
START and STOP Conditions
A master device initiates communication by issuing
a START condition, which is a high-to-low transition
on SDA with SCL high. A START condition from the
master signals the beginning of a transmission to the
MAX13325/MAX13326. The master terminates transmis-
sion by a STOP condition (see the Acknowledge Bit
section). A STOP condition is a low-to-high transition
on SDA while SCL is high (Figure 3). The STOP condi-
tion frees the bus. If a Repeated START condition is
generated instead of a STOP condition, the bus remains
active. When a STOP condition or incorrect slave ID is
detected, the device internally disconnects SCL from the
serial interface until the next START or Repeated START
condition, minimizing digital noise and feedthrough.
Acknowledge Bit
The acknowledge (ACK) bit is a clocked 9th bit that
the MAX13325/MAX13326 use to handshake receipt of
each byte of data when in write mode. The MAX13325/
MAX13326 pull down SDA during the entire master-
generated 9th clock pulse if the previous byte is suc-
cessfully received (see Figure 4). Monitoring ACK
allows for detection of unsuccessful data transfers. An
unsuccessful data transfer occurs if a receiving device
is busy or if a system fault has occurred. In the event

of an unsuccessful data transfer, the bus master may
retry communication. The master must pull down SDA
during the 9th clock cycle to acknowledge receipt of
data when the MAX13325/MAX13326 are in read mode.
An acknowledge must be sent by the master after each
read byte to allow data transfer to continue. A not-
acknowledge is sent when the master reads the final
byte of data from the MAX13325/MAX13326, followed by
a STOP condition.
Slave Address
The MAX13325/MAX13326 are programmable to one of
seven I2C slave addresses. These slave addresses are
unique device IDs. Connect ADD_ to GND, VL, SCL, or
SDA to set the I2C slave address. The address is defined
as the seven most significant bits (MSBs) followed by
the read/write bit. Set the read/write bit to 1 to configure
the MAX13325/MAX13326 to read mode. Set the read/
write bit to 0 to configure the device to write mode. The
address is the first byte of information sent after the
START condition.
Register Address Map
Single-Byte Write Operation
For a single-byte write operation, send the slave address
as the first byte followed by the register address and
then a single data byte (see Figure 5).
Burst Write Operation
For a burst write operation, send the slave address as
the first byte followed by the register address and then
the data bytes (see Figure 6).
Single-Byte Read Operation
For a single-byte read operation, send the slave address
with the read bit set, as the first byte followed by the reg-
ister address. Then send a Repeated START condition
followed by the slave address. After the slave sends the
data byte, send a not-acknowledge followed by a STOP
condition (see Figure 7).
Burst Read Operation
For a burst read operation, send the slave address with
a write as the first byte followed by the register address.
Then send a Repeated START condition followed by the
slave address. The slave sends data bytes until a not-
acknowledge condition is sent (see Figure 8).

Charge Pump
The MAX13325/MAX13326 charge pump can be dis-
abled depending on application requirements. When
charge pump is enabled [CPOFF = 0], please follow the
charge-pump capacitor selections. When the charge
pump is disabled [CPOFF = 1], the flying capacitor
(C1) is not needed. There are internal diodes between
VDD/OUT_ to CHOLD, so it is important that CHOLD
not be forced below VDD or any of the outputs. A series
diode needs to be placed between the external supply
(VSUP) and CHOLD. See D2 in the Typical Operating
Circuit.
Charge-Pump Capacitor Selection
Use ceramic capacitors with a low ESR for optimum per-
formance. For optimal performance over the extended
temperature range, select capacitors with an X7R
dielectric. Table 19 lists suggested manufacturers.
Flying Capacitor (C1)
The value of the flying capacitor (see the Typical
Operating Circuit) affects the charge pump’s load regu-
lation and output resistance. A C1 value that is too small
degrades the device’s ability to provide sufficient current
drive, which leads to a loss of output voltage. Increasing
the value of C1 improves load regulation and reduces
the charge-pump output resistance. For optimum perfor-
mance, use a 470nF capacitor for C1. When the charge
pump is disabled [CPOFF = 1], the flying capacitor (C1)
is not needed.
Hold Capacitor (C2)
The hold capacitor value (see the Typical Operating
Circuit) and ESR directly affect the ripple at the internal
negative rail. Increasing the value of C2 reduces output
ripple. Likewise, decreasing the ESR of C2 reduces both
ripple and output resistance. Lower capacitance values
can be used in systems with low maximum output power
levels. For optimum performance, use a 1FF capacitor
for C2.

Chip Information
PROCESS: BCD
Power-Supply Bypass Capacitor (C3)
The power-supply bypass capacitor (see the Typical
Operating Circuit) lowers the output impedance of the
power supply, and reduces the impact of the MAX13325/
MAX13326 charge-pump switching transients. Bypass
VDD with C3, the same value as C2, and place it physi-
cally close to the VDD and PGND pins.
Load-Dump Protection
With minimal external components, the MAX13325/
MAX13326 can be protected against automotive load-
dump conditions. See the Typical Operating Circuit.
nMOSFET (Q1)
Q1 should be selected to withstand the full-voltage expo-
sure (BVDSS > 45V). The gate-source turn-on voltage
should be chosen to be less than VCPS to ensure initial
startup. Using an external nMOS, RTR020N05, 300ms
duration component provides 50V load-dump protection.
Zener Diode (D1)
During short-to-battery condition, OUT_ lifts up CHOLD
using an internal diode. In order not to violate the maxi-
mum gate-source voltage of Q1, a zener diode of appro-
priate clamping voltage should be added between the
gate and source terminals.
Series Resistor (R1)
Normally, a series resistor for current limitation is needed
during short-to-battery condition. R1 should be chosen
according to (18V - VDD(min) - VZENER)/1mA so that no
excessive current is being drawn from CHOLD.
Layout and Grounding
Proper layout and grounding are essential for optimum
performance. Connect the EP and GND together at a
single point on the PCB. Ensure ground return resistance
is minimized for optimum crosstalk performance.
