IL 260E

Digital Isolators Overview

The IL 260E is a general-purpose digital isolator from the IsoLoop® series, manufactured by NVE Corp/Isolation Products. It utilizes Giant Magnetoresistive (GMR) technology to provide electrical isolation without an isolated power supply. The device features five channels with a voltage isolation rating of 2500Vrms and a data rate of 110Mbps. It offers a common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 30kV/µs and supports a supply voltage range of 3V to 5.5V. Packaged in a 16-SOIC format, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 85°C.
