Product details
Overview
SAP51D-B-G1-T from Integrated Device Technology is a universal AS-Interface (AS-i) physical layer IC compliant with AS-Interface Complete Specification V3.0, functioning as slave/master interface to the two-wire unshielded bus. It delivers 55mA electronic inductor current, supports 5.33/16MHz crystal frequencies via auto-detection, and operates across -25°C to +85°C in SOP16 package. Used in industrial sensor/actuator interconnection where power and data share one cable.
For engineers reviewing the SAP51D-B-G1-T datasheet, SAP51D-B-G1-T pinout, SAP51D-B-G1-T application, or SAP51D-B-G1-T equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, pin-level design meaning, real-world AS-i system roles, and validated alternative options for master/slave node implementation.
Technical Context
The SAP51D-B-G1-T implements full AS-i V3.0 physical layer functionality including integrated electronic inductor (55mA drive), burst-protected receiver/transmitter, and dual LED status outputs. Its internal EEPROM stores configuration data for Standard Slave Mode or Master Mode operation - Safety Mode is exclusive to SAP5S variants.
It features clock and communication watchdogs, thermal protection, and automatic crystal frequency detection (5.33/16MHz). The device uses dedicated parameter port (P[3:0], PSTBn) and data port (D[3:0], DSTBn) with configurable I/O timing, pre-processing, and synchronous data I/O mode support.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| AS-i Compliance | Fully compliant with AS-Interface Complete Specification V3.0 - ensures interoperability with certified AS-i masters, slaves, and safety devices. |
| Operating Temp | -25°C to +85°C - qualified for industrial environments without external thermal management. |
| Crystal Support | 5.33 MHz or 16 MHz with auto-detection - eliminates manual configuration and enables flexible timing source selection. |
| Electronic Inductor | 55 mA output current at UOUT - powers AS-i bus directly without external inductor, reducing BOM count and board space. |
| Digital I/O Drive | 10 mA sink capability on D[3:0]/DSTBn and P[3:0]/PSTBn - sufficient to drive standard logic inputs and discrete control signals. |
| EEPROM Storage | Internal non-volatile memory for user configuration, firmware, and operational mode settings - enables field reprogramming via handheld or USB programmer. |
| LED Outputs | LED1 and LED2 support all V3.0 status indication modes - provides visual diagnostics for node state, error, and communication activity. |
Pinout & Package
SAP51D-B-G1-T is housed in a 16-pin SOP (300 mil) surface-mount package per JEDEC MS-012AC, with 1.27 mm pitch and 10.3 mm × 7.5 mm body dimensions.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| LTGP / LTGN | AS-i Bus Interface Terminals | Connect directly to two-wire AS-i cable; LTGP carries DC power + data, LTGN is return; rated for 16–34 VDC and pulse-tolerant up to 50 V. |
| UOUT | Regulated Output Voltage | Provides stabilized voltage (≈VLTGP – 1.2 V) to power external logic; capable of sourcing 55 mA - replaces external DC-DC converter in slave designs. |
| U5R | 5 V Regulator Output | Delivers regulated 5 V for internal logic and optional external circuitry; load-dependent dropout behavior defined in datasheet Table 5.1. |
| P[3:0] / PSTBn | Parameter Port | 4-bit bidirectional port with strobe; used for mode configuration, watchdog control, and EEPROM programming during initialization. |
| D[3:0] / DSTBn | Data Port | 4-bit bidirectional data path with strobe; transfers I/O data between AS-i bus and local controller; supports delay/synchronous modes per configuration. |
| OSC1 / OSC2 | Crystal Oscillator Inputs | Accepts fundamental-mode quartz crystals (5.33 or 16 MHz); internal oscillator circuit eliminates need for external capacitors in most layouts. |
| LED1 / LED2 | Status Indicator Outputs | Open-drain drivers compatible with AS-i V3.0 LED signaling protocol; drive external LEDs for fault, ready, and communication status. |
| PFAULT | Fault Input | Active-low input monitoring external fault conditions (e.g., overtemperature, short-circuit); triggers internal fault response and status reporting. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Universal AS-i Node Role | Configurable as Standard Slave or Master Mode (not Safety Mode) - enables reuse across different node types without hardware change. |
| Integrated Electronic Inductor | 55 mA UOUT current drive - eliminates discrete inductor and associated EMI filtering components in AS-i slave power supply design. |
| V3.0 Status LED Support | Dual open-drain LED1/LED2 outputs - implement full AS-i V3.0 visual status protocol (e.g., blinking patterns for address conflict, timeout, or safe state). |
| Crystal Auto-Detection | Automatic recognition of 5.33 MHz or 16 MHz crystal - removes configuration jumpers or software setup steps during production or field deployment. |
| Communication Watchdog | Hardware-enforced timeout on AS-i telegram reception - prevents hung states and ensures deterministic recovery in noisy industrial environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar AS-i physical layer applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ASI4U | Single-chip AS-i transceiver with integrated microcontroller core; supports only slave mode; no master/repeater capability. | Limited to fixed-function slave nodes; lacks programmable EEPROM and dual-mode flexibility of SAP51D-B-G1-T. | Select ASI4U only when cost-sensitive, low-complexity slave-only applications require minimal external components and no field reconfiguration. |
| SAP51D-A-G1-T | Same silicon, SOP20 package (20-pin) instead of SOP16; identical electrical specs and feature set. | Requires larger PCB footprint and different layout; pinout differs - not pin-compatible with SAP51D-B-G1-T. | Choose SAP51D-A-G1-T only when additional routing space is available or when SOP20 is required for mechanical compatibility with existing carrier boards. |
Compared with ASI4U and SAP51D-A-G1-T, the SAP51D-B-G1-T offers optimal balance of configurability, compactness, and functional completeness for general-purpose AS-i node design - especially where master capability, EEPROM programmability, and SOP16 form factor are required.

FAQ
What is the primary function of the SAP51D-B-G1-T in an AS-i network?
The SAP51D-B-G1-T serves as the physical layer interface IC for AS-Interface networks, handling power delivery, data modulation/demodulation, and protocol timing. It functions as either a slave or master node, converting between local parallel I/O (via D[3:0] and P[3:0]) and AS-i bus signals on LTGP/LTGN. Its integrated electronic inductor and EEPROM make it self-contained for field-deployable node designs.
Does the SAP51D-B-G1-T support AS-i Safety Mode?
No, the SAP51D-B-G1-T does not support AS-i Safety Mode. That capability is exclusive to the SAP5S variant (e.g., SAP5SD-B-G1-T), which includes a dedicated safety code generator and safety-area EEPROM programming. The SAP51D-B-G1-T is limited to Standard Slave Mode and Master Mode operation per its datasheet specification and silicon revision history.
What crystal frequencies does the SAP51D-B-G1-T support, and how is selection handled?
The SAP51D-B-G1-T supports both 5.33 MHz and 16 MHz fundamental-mode quartz crystals. It performs automatic frequency detection at power-up using internal circuitry - no external configuration or software setting is required. This allows designers to select either crystal based on system timing requirements or legacy compatibility without modifying firmware or hardware.
Can the SAP51D-B-G1-T be used in a repeater application?
Yes, the SAP51D-B-G1-T supports repeater mode operation as defined in the AS-Interface Complete Specification V3.0. In this mode, it regenerates incoming AS-i telegrams and retransmits them with precise timing alignment, extending network reach beyond the standard 100 m limit. Pin assignments and timing behavior in repeater mode are detailed in datasheet Table 5.25 and Figure 5.9.
What are the key differences between SAP51D-B-G1-T and SAP51D-A-G1-T?
The SAP51D-B-G1-T and SAP51D-A-G1-T share identical electrical specifications, functionality, and silicon revision (D), but differ in package: SAP51D-B-G1-T uses SOP16 (300 mil), while SAP51D-A-G1-T uses SOP20 (300 mil). Their pinouts are not compatible - SOP16 omits four pins present in SOP20 (e.g., CDC, MAN, UART-related signals). Layout and footprint must be redesigned when switching between them.
