MAX12930/MAX12931
EVALUATION KIT AVAILABLE
Two-Channel Digital Isolators
General Description
The MAX12930/MAX12931 are a family of 2-channel,
3.75kV/5kVRMS digital galvanic isolators using Maxim’s
proprietary process technology. These devices transfer
digital signals between circuits with different power
domains while using as little as 0.65mW per channel at
1Mbps with 1.8V.
The two channels of the MAX12931 transfer data in
opposite directions, and this makes the MAX12931 ideal
for isolating the TX and RX lines of a transceiver. The
MAX12930 features two channels transferring data in the
same direction.
Both devices are available with a maximum data rate of
either 25Mbps or 150Mbps and with the default outputs
that are either high or low. The default is the state the
output assumes when the input is not powered, or if the
input is open-circuit. See the Ordering Information for
suffixes associated with each option. Independent 1.71V
to 5.5V supplies on each side of the isolator also make
the devices suitable for use as level translators.
The MAX12930/MAX12931 are available in an 8-pin,
narrow-body SOIC package. In addition, the MAX12931
is available in a 16-pin, wide-body SOIC package. The
package material has a minimum comparative tracking
index (CTI) of 600V, which gives it a group 1 rating in
creepage tables. All devices are rated for operation at
ambient temperatures of -40°C to +125°C.
