3 Description
The ISO1540-Q1 and ISO1541-Q1 devices are low-
power, bidirectional isolators that are compatible with
I2C interfaces. These devices have logic input and
output buffers that are separated by Texas
Instruments Capacitive Isolation technology using a
silicon dioxide (SiO2) barrier. When used with isolated
power supplies, these devices block high voltages,
isolate grounds, and prevent noise currents from
entering the local ground and interfering with or
damaging sensitive circuitry.
This isolation technology provides for function,
performance, size, and power consumption
advantages when compared to optocouplers. The
ISO1540-Q1 and ISO1541-Q1 devices enable a
complete isolated I2C interface to be implemented
within a small form factor.
The ISO1540-Q1 has two isolated bidirectional
channels for clock and data lines while the ISO1541-
Q1 has a bidirectional data and a unidirectional clock
channel. The ISO1541-Q1 is useful in applications
that have a single master while the ISO1540-Q1 is
suitable for multi-master applications. For applications
where clock stretching by the slave is possible, the
ISO1540-Q1 device should be used.
Isolated bidirectional communication is accomplished
within these devices by offsetting the low-level output
voltage on side 1 to a value greater than the high-
level input voltage on side 1, thus preventing an
internal logic latch that otherwise would occur with
standard digital isolators.
