ISO7631FM

The ISO7631F and ISO7641F devices provide galvanic isolation up to 4242 V_PK per VDE. The ISO7631F device has three channels, two of which operate in the forward direction and one which operates in the reverse direction. The ISO7641F device has 4 channels, three of which operate in the forward direction and one of which operates in the reverse direction. Suffix F indicates that output defaults to low-state in fail-safe conditions (see ). M-Grade devices are high-speed isolators capable of up to150-Mbps data rates with fast propagation delays, whereas C-Grade devices are capable of up to 25-Mbps data rates with low power consumption and integrated filters for noise-prone applications. C-Grade devices are recommended for lower-speed applications where input noise pulses of less than 6 ns duration must be suppressed, or when low-power consumption is critical.

Each isolation channel has a logic input and output buffer separated by a silicon dioxide (SiO₂) insulation barrier. Used in conjunction with isolated power supplies, these devices prevent noise currents on a data bus or other circuits from entering the local ground and interfering with or damaging sensitive circuitry. The devices have TTL input thresholds and can operate from 2.7-V (M-Grade), 3.3-V and 5-V supplies. All inputs are 5-V tolerant when supplied from 3.3-V or 2.7-V supplies.
