Product details
Overview
ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 from Analog Devices is a micropower, dual-channel, bidirectional digital isolator based on iCoupler® transformer technology, delivering 2 Mbps NRZ data rate, <8 ns pulse width distortion, and 3000 Vrms reinforced isolation in an 8-lead SOIC package. It operates from 2.25 V to 3.6 V supplies and supports low-power industrial serial interfaces including SPI and 4 mA–20 mA loop control.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 datasheet, ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 pinout, ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 application, or ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 equivalent, key selection criteria include quiescent current (0.3 μA/channel refresh disabled), common-mode transient immunity (>25 kV/μs), thermal operation up to +125°C, and UL/VDE safety certification for 3000 Vrms isolation.
Technical Context
The ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 implements two independent, bidirectional CMOS-isolated channels using monolithic air-core transformers-no optocoupler LED aging or bias drift. Each channel features input hysteresis (ΔVT = 0.6 V), undervoltage lockout (UVLO = 1.5 V), and glitch filtering for noise immunity.
It supports asymmetric supply operation (e.g., VDD1 = 3.3 V / VDD2 = 2.5 V), with propagation delay skew ≤10 ns (codirectional) and PWD ≤8 ns at 3.3 V. Refresh enable/disable pins are absent in the 8-lead SOIC variant-refresh is permanently enabled per its fixed internal architecture.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data Rate | 2 Mbps NRZ - supports full-speed SPI clocking and real-time sensor feedback loops without encoding overhead. |
| Isolation Rating | 3000 Vrms for 1 minute (UL 1577) - meets basic insulation requirements for industrial I/O and PLC backplanes. |
| Pulse Width Distortion | <8 ns - ensures accurate timing alignment between isolated channels for synchronous protocols. |
| Quiescent Current | 5.6 μA per channel at 3.3 V (refresh enabled) - enables battery-powered or energy-harvesting systems with multi-year runtime. |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | >25 kV/μs - sustains reliable operation in motor drives and power converters with fast-switching noise. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.25 V to 3.6 V per side - interoperates with both 2.5 V logic and 3.3 V microcontrollers without level shifters. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial motor control, and outdoor metering environments. |
Pinout & Package
ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 is housed in an 8-lead SOIC (R-8) package with gull-wing leads, 1.27 mm pitch, and 4.5 mm minimum PCB clearance between input and output sides per VDE 0884-10.
| Pin | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD1 | Side 1 supply (2.25–3.6 V); requires local 0.01–0.1 μF ceramic bypass to GND1. |
| 2 | VIA | Logic input A (Side 1); accepts CMOS levels referenced to VDD1. |
| 3 | VIB | Logic input B (Side 1); bidirectionally coupled to VOA/VOB via internal transformer core. |
| 4 | GND1 | Side 1 ground reference; electrically isolated from GND2. |
| 5 | GND2 | Side 2 ground reference; galvanically separated from GND1 for noise suppression. |
| 6 | VOB | Logic output B (Side 2); driven by VIB with <180 ns propagation delay. |
| 7 | VOA | Logic output A (Side 2); driven by VIA with matched channel timing. |
| 8 | VDD2 | Side 2 supply (2.25–3.6 V); independent of VDD1 for level-shifting applications. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Ultralow power operation | 5.6 μA/channel quiescent current at 3.3 V enables always-on isolation in IoT edge nodes. |
| Bidirectional communication | Full-duplex channel pairing eliminates need for separate TX/RX isolators in SPI bus isolation. |
| High CMTI | >25 kV/μs common-mode rejection prevents data corruption in high-noise motor drive gate driver circuits. |
| Input glitch filter | Integrated noise suppression rejects sub-100 ns transients-no external RC filtering required. |
| Thermal robustness | Rated for continuous operation at +125°C ambient-suitable for enclosed industrial enclosures without forced cooling. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8620ED-B-IS | 2.5 kVrms isolation rating; higher 7.5 mA output drive; no input hysteresis. | Limited to lower-voltage industrial equipment; lacks built-in glitch filter for noisy environments. | Choose when higher output current is needed and CMTI >25 kV/μs is not required. |
| ISO6720DWR | 5000 Vrms reinforced isolation; 50 Mbps max data rate; 1.65–5.5 V supply range. | Overqualified for 2 Mbps SPI but suitable for future-proofed designs requiring higher voltage margins. | Prefer when designing for long-term compliance with IEC 61800-5-1 or UL 61800-5-1 motor drive standards. |
Compared with SI8620ED-B-IS and ISO6720DWR, the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 delivers optimal balance of ultra-low power (5.6 μA/channel), certified 3000 Vrms isolation, and precise timing (<8 ns PWD) for cost-sensitive, thermally constrained industrial control nodes.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7?
The ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 supports a maximum data rate of 2 Mbps in nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) format. This is validated across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) and supply range (2.25 V to 3.6 V), with pulse width distortion maintained below 8 ns to ensure signal integrity in timing-critical interfaces like SPI.
Does the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 support asymmetric supply voltages?
Yes, the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 supports asymmetric operation-for example, VDD1 = 3.3 V and VDD2 = 2.5 V. Electrical characteristics tables in the datasheet explicitly define propagation delay, supply current, and logic thresholds under these mixed-supply conditions, enabling direct interfacing between 3.3 V microcontrollers and 2.5 V sensors or ADCs without external level shifters.
What safety certifications does the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 hold?
The ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 is certified to UL 1577 (3000 Vrms/1 min), CSA Component Acceptance Notice 5A, and VDE V 0884-10 (DIN V VDE V 0884-10:2006-12) for reinforced insulation. Its 8-lead SOIC package carries VIORM = 560 Vpeak, meeting IEC 60950-1 and IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity requirements for industrial end equipment.
How does the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 achieve ultralow power consumption?
The ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 achieves ultralow power via iCoupler® transformer architecture-eliminating LED bias current-and optimized CMOS circuitry. At 3.3 V, it draws only 5.6 μA per channel with refresh enabled, and includes an input glitch filter that removes the need for external RC networks, further reducing system-level power and component count.
Is the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 pin-compatible with other ADuM124x variants?
No-the ADUM1240ARZ-RL7 (8-lead SOIC) is not pin-compatible with the 20-lead SSOP variants (e.g., ADUM1240ARWZ). The SOIC version lacks EN1/EN2 pins and internal refresh disable functionality; those features exist only in the SSOP package. Pin mapping, footprint, and thermal characteristics differ significantly between packages.
