Overview

The ADuM163N0BRZ is a robust 6-channel digital isolator based on Analog Devices iCoupler technology, offering a 3000Vrms isolation rating. This device features three forward and three reverse channels (3/3 configuration) capable of data rates up to 150Mbps with a very high common-mode transient immunity of 75kV/us. It is designed to operate across a wide supply voltage range from 1.7V to 5.5V, making it compatible with various logic levels.

Why Choose This Part

This isolator provides superior timing performance with a maximum propagation delay of 13ns and low pulse width distortion. Its high CMTI of 75kV/us ensures signal integrity even in environments with massive electrical noise or fast switching transients. The 1.7V to 5.5V operating range allow for direct level translation between low-voltage microcontrollers and 5V industrial peripherals.

Applications

Multi-Channel SPI Isolation
Ideal for isolating high-speed SPI buses where data must be transmitted and received across a safety barrier.
Industrial Fieldbus Communication
Used in RS-485, RS-232, and CAN bus isolation to prevent ground loops in noisy industrial environments.
Battery Management Systems
Provides high-speed digital isolation between high-voltage battery monitoring ICs and low-voltage system controllers.
Motor Control Inverters
Safely bridges the gap between high-power switching stages and sensitive PWM control logic.

Getting Started

Place 0.1uF ceramic bypass capacitors as close as possible to the VDD1 and VDD2 pins to maintain signal integrity. Ensure that the PCB layout maintains the required creepage and clearance distances for the 3000Vrms rating. For evaluation, use the EVAL-ADUM163N0EBZ support board to test performance and channel configuration in your specific circuit.
