ADUM162N0BRZ

Digital Isolators Overview

The ADUM162N0BRZ is a robust six-channel digital isolator from Analog Devices, utilizing iCoupler magnetic coupling technology. It features four unidirectional forward channels and two reverse channels within a 16-lead SOIC package. The device supports data rates up to 150 Mb/s with a propagation delay of 7.2 ns and common-mode transient immunity of 75 kV/µs. It operates on supply voltages ranging from 1.7 V to 5.5 V, drawing 16.4 mA typical current. Isolation voltage is rated at 3000 Vrms, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Digital Isolators Feature Summary

• Integrates six independent digital isolation channels using proprietary magnetic coupling technology for high reliability.
• Provides robust signal integrity with high common-mode transient immunity and low pulse width distortion.
• Supports flexible channel configurations with four forward and two reverse unidirectional paths.
• Operates across wide industrial temperature ranges with standard CMOS logic compatibility.

Digital Isolators Applications

• Industrial automation and control systems requiring galvanic isolation
• Medical equipment needing safe patient isolation barriers
• Power management circuits in energy metering applications
• General-purpose digital communication interfaces

Digital Isolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix to ensure correct packaging configuration, as variants exist for tube and reel formats. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official manufacturer documentation prior to integration. Check regional availability constraints, as distribution may vary by location. Ensure proper handling procedures are followed due to moisture sensitivity classification. Validate that the selected part number matches the required channel count and isolation voltage specifications for the target design.

Digital Isolators Selection Notes

Select this component when six isolated channels are required within a single package to save board space. Consider the 150 Mb/s data rate capability for moderate-speed digital signals. Evaluate the 3000 Vrms isolation rating against system safety requirements. Compare power consumption characteristics with other isolator families if low standby current is critical. Ensure the SOIC-16 footprint aligns with existing PCB layout constraints.

Digital Isolators Part Context

This device belongs to the ADUM16xN family of six-channel digital isolators designed for SPI and general-purpose applications. It shares architectural similarities with the ADUM15xN series but offers additional channel capacity. The product line emphasizes high reliability and compact form factors for modern electronic designs.

Digital Isolators Replacement Considerations

The ADUM162N0BRZ-RL7 serves as a reel-packaged equivalent variant. Other models in the ADUM16xN family may offer different channel configurations or isolation ratings.
