IL 712T-2E

Overview

The IL 712T-2E is a general-purpose digital isolator from the IsoLoop series, utilizing Giant Magnetoresistance (GMR) technology. It features two independent channels with unidirectional signal transmission. The device provides 2500Vrms isolation voltage and supports data rates up to 110Mbps. It exhibits a common-mode transient immunity of 100kV/µs typical. Operating on a single supply voltage between 3V and 5.5V, it functions within a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C. The component is housed in an 8-DIP package for through-hole mounting.

Feature Summary

• Employs GMR sensor technology for high-speed digital isolation without optical or capacitive coupling elements
• Provides robust common-mode transient immunity suitable for noisy industrial environments
• Features low propagation delay and pulse width distortion for precise timing applications
• Operates reliably across extended industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems requiring galvanic isolation
• Medical equipment signal processing interfaces
• Power electronics gate drive circuits
• Test and measurement instrumentation isolated channels

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'T-2E' corresponds to the tube packaging variant when ordering. Confirm that the 8-DIP through-hole package aligns with the target PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the supplier documentation explicitly references the NVE Corp/Isolation Products manufacturer designation to avoid counterfeit components. Cross-reference the datasheet revision date against the production batch information provided by the vendor.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed data transmission exceeding standard optocoupler capabilities is required alongside strong magnetic field immunity. The GMR technology offers superior performance compared to capacitive isolators in high-noise environments. Consider the through-hole DIP package if board space allows and mechanical stability is prioritized over surface-mount density. Verify power supply constraints match the 3V to 5.5V operating range.
