IL017-3E

Overview

The IL017-3E is a general-purpose digital isolator from NVE Corp/Isolation Products, utilizing Giant Magnetoresistive (GMR) technology. It features four isolated channels within a 16-SOIC package (0.295", 7.50mm width). The device supports a maximum data rate of 110 Mbps and operates on a supply voltage range of 3V to 5.5V. It provides an isolation voltage of 2500 Vrms with a common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 100 kV/µs. The component functions across an operating temperature range of -40°C to 100°C.

Feature Summary

• Employs GMR technology for high-speed signal transmission
• Provides robust electrical isolation between circuits
• Supports bidirectional or unidirectional channel configurations

Applications

• General-purpose digital isolation in industrial systems
• Signal isolation in measurement and control equipment
• Power management circuit interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '3E' against official NVE documentation to confirm pinout and functional specifications. Ensure the selected variant matches the required isolation voltage and CMTI ratings for the target application environment. Cross-reference the 16-SOIC package dimensions with PCB layout constraints before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a four-channel isolator is required with moderate speed capabilities up to 110 Mbps. The GMR technology offers advantages in power consumption compared to optical alternatives. Consider the 16-SOIC footprint for space-constrained designs requiring multiple isolated signals within a single package.

Part Context

The IL017 series belongs to NVE's IsoLoop family of digital isolators. These devices replace traditional optocouplers by using magnetic sensing elements instead of LEDs and phototransistors. This architecture typically results in faster switching speeds, lower power consumption, and improved reliability over time without degradation of light-emitting components.

Replacement Considerations

IL717-3E: Offers identical 4-channel functionality and 16-SOIC packaging but may differ in physical width or specific electrical tolerances. Verify compatibility with existing board layouts and signal integrity requirements before substitution.
