ADUM3160BRWZ in ADI ADuM Digital Isolators Family
The ADUM3160BRWZ is a specialized digital isolator from Analog Devices designed specifically for USB 2.0 peripheral isolation. Based on proprietary iCoupler technology, this family provides a 2.5 kV rms isolation barrier between a USB host and a peripheral. It is engineered to solve grounding issues, break ground loops, and provide essential ESD and surge protection in demanding industrial and medical environments where data integrity and equipment safety are critical requirements for system stability.
Variants in This Sub-Family
Variants within this family typically differ by their isolation ratings and package sizes. While the ADUM3160 focuses on 2.5 kV rms, closely related models like the ADuM4160 offer enhanced 5 kV rms isolation for more stringent safety certifications. Some versions are optimized for specific power consumption profiles or thermal operating ranges, though the core logic for automatic USB bus state detection remains consistent across the product line to ensure plug-and-play compatibility.
