Maxim’s 5kVRMS Reinforced Digital Isolator: 2x More Throughput at 4x Lower Power

To better protect industrial systems from the risks of high-voltage signals, equipment designers can now address the new robust and reliable MAX22445 5kVRMS four-channel reinforced digital isolator from Maxim Integrated Products, Inc. Delivering up to 2x greater throughput at 4x lower power consumption versus competing solutions, the MAX22445 provides reliable communication across the isolation barrier to make sure safe operation of compact industrial, medical and other equipment.

In high-voltage equipment, digital isolators provide signal isolation and level-shifting for correct operation of the many circuits, while also protecting users from dangers like electric shock. Yet, not all of those isolators are alike as many consume an outsized amount of power, generate significant heat and introduce large propagation delays, limiting system reliability and throughput.

Overcoming the shortcomings of other digital isolators, the MAX22445 delivers reinforced, dual insulation barrier isolation for fast digital signals. The IC, which mitigates the risks of high-voltage power, transfers signals of up to 200Mbps with significantly less power than competitive solutions. it's available during a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package with 8mm of creepage and clearance.

Key Advantages

Low Power: 41mA per channel current consumption and 0.74mW power consumption at 1Mbps with VDD at 1.8V. The IC has 4x lower power consumption compared to competing solutions while also reducing heat generation and enabling reliable and compact designs.

High Speed: Maximum propagation delay of 10.5ns and maximum rate of 200Mbps enable fast and accurate data acquisition and high-speed interfaces with wide timing margins. The IC delivers up to 2x greater throughput versus other available solutions.

Robust and Reliable: Dual barriers of isolation provide 5kVRMS and 10kV surge for reliable performance over an extended product lifetime and meet the security standards required for operator protection.
