The ADuM series consists of digital isolators with different numbers of channels, voltage ratings, and data rates to suit a wide range of applications. They use Analog Devices' iCoupler technology, which is a magnetic-based isolation technology that provides high isolation ratings while maintaining high speed and low power consumption. The ADuM series is designed to meet international safety standards such as UL, CSA, VDE, and TUV, making them suitable for use in applications that require compliance with safety standards. They are available in different package types, such as SOIC, LFCSP, and QSOP, to suit different application requirements.

Features

The main features of ADuM series Digital isolators may be summarized as follows:

1. High isolation voltage: Up to 5 kVrms for reinforced isolation and up to 2.5 kVrms for basic isolation.

2. High speed: Up to 150 Mbps data rate for fast signal transmission.

3. Low power consumption: Low quiescent current of just a few microamps and low power consumption make them ideal for battery-operated applications.

4. Small size: Compact packages are available for space-constrained applications.

5. Robustness: They are immune to EMI and RFI and can operate in harsh environments.

Applications

  • Industrial automation

  • Medical equipment

  • Power supplies

  • Automotive

  • Communications

  • Consumer electronics

For applications such as PLCs, motor drives, and robotics, where high voltage isolation is required. In medical equipment such as patient monitors, infusion pumps, and ECG machines, where isolation is crucial to ensure patient safety. AC-DC and DC-DC power supplies provide galvanic isolation between the primary and secondary sides.
