iCoupler digital isolation technology addresses limitations of optocouplers. Optocouplers are slow, power hungry, difficult to integrate with other functions and degrade over time. By contrast, iCoupler products combine high bandwidth on-chip transformers and fine scale CMOS circuitry to realize isolators that improve reliability, size, power, speed, timing accuracy, and ease of use.

Farnell, the leading multi-channel distributor of electronic and industrial components, and Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), the global leader in high performance semiconductors for signal processing applications, will co-host a webcast entitled ‘Simplifying System Designs Requiring Isolated Data and Isolated Power’ on Nov 30, 2010, from 4-5 pm CET.

Tuning its proprietary iCoupler digital isolation technology to meet the reliability and quality needs of emerging electric-hybrid vehicles, Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) is introducing a family of digital isolators designed to operate in today’s electrically challenging automotive environment. Unlike the relatively low-voltage signals powering most in-car entertainment, safety, and power train systems, hybrid-vehicle batteries can operate at volt...

Analog Devices (ADI) is expanding its portfolio of digital isolation products with the industry’s smallest isolated dc-to-dc converter. Offering a 5-kV rms isolation rating in a 10-mm × 10-mm package, the ADuM6000 is a 0.5 watt device that integrates ADI’s proprietary iCoupler digital isolation technology and isoPower dc-to-dc converter. The new digital isolator allows designers to free up valuable circuit-board real estate while eliminating...
