Dual-Channel Digital Isolators
current transfer ratios, nonlinear transfer functions, and temper-
ature and lifetime effects are eliminated with the simple
iCoupler
digital interfaces and stable performance characteristics. The need
for external drivers and other discrete components is eliminated
with these
iCoupler
products. Furthermore,
iCoupler
devices
consume one-tenth to one-sixth the power of optocouplers at
comparable signal data rates.
The ADuM120x isolators provide two independent isolation
channels in a variety of channel configurations and data rates
(see the Ordering Guide). Both parts operate with the supply
voltage on either side ranging from 2.7 V to 5.5 V, providing
compatibility with lower voltage systems as well as enabling a
voltage translation functionality across the isolation barrier.
In addition, the ADuM120x provide low pulse width distortion
(<3 ns for CR grade) and tight channel-to-channel matching
(<3 ns for CR grade). Unlike other optocoupler alternatives,
the ADuM120x isolators have a patented refresh feature that
ensures dc correctness in the absence of input logic transitions
and during power-up/power-down conditions.
The ADuM1200W and ADuM1201W are automotive grade
versions qualified for 125°C operation. See the Automotive

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADuM120x
the Analog Devices, Inc.,
iCoupler®
technology. Combining
high speed CMOS and monolithic transformer technologies,
these isolation components provide outstanding performance
characteristics superior to alternatives, such as optocouplers.
By avoiding the use of LEDs and photodiodes,
iCoupler
devices
remove the design difficulties commonly associated with opto-
couplers. The typical optocoupler concerns regarding uncertain
