Product details
Overview
ADUM1285WBRZ from Analog Devices is a 3 kVRMS dual-channel digital isolator with default-low output logic, 100 Mbps data rate, 23 ns typical propagation delay, and reinforced insulation rated to 565 VPEAK. It enables bidirectional signal isolation across 3.135–5.5 V supply domains in high-noise industrial motor drives and battery monitoring systems.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM1285WBRZ datasheet, ADUM1285WBRZ pinout, ADUM1285WBRZ application, or ADUM1285WBRZ equivalent, key selection criteria include its VDE 0884-17 certified reinforced insulation, 125°C operation, 25 kV/μs common-mode transient immunity, and level translation between 3.3 V and 5 V domains without external components.
Technical Context
The ADUM1285WBRZ implements iCoupler® monolithic air-core transformer technology for galvanic isolation, eliminating LED aging and timing drift inherent in optocouplers. Its patented refresh circuit ensures DC-correct output states during input inactivity or power-up transients.
It features two independent unidirectional channels (A and B), each with separate input-side (VIA/VIB) and output-side (VOA/VOB) power domains. The device supports mixed-voltage operation (e.g., 5 V on Side 1, 3.3 V on Side 2) and includes undervoltage lockout (2.75 V threshold) on both supplies.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Data Rate | Up to 100 Mbps NRZ - supports high-speed SPI, RS-485, and CAN FD interface isolation without signal degradation. |
| Propagation Delay | 23 ns typical - enables tight timing budgets in real-time control loops and fast feedback paths. |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | >25 kV/μs - maintains signal integrity in motor drive inverters and HV battery systems with rapid voltage transients. |
| Isolation Rating | 3000 VRMS for 1 minute, VIORM = 565 VPEAK - meets reinforced insulation requirements per DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17). |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive and industrial ambient environments. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 3.135 V to 5.5 V per side - allows direct interfacing with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V analog front-ends. |
| Default Output State | Low - ensures fail-safe behavior in safety-critical applications when input power is lost or inactive. |
Pinout & Package
Narrow-body 8-lead SOIC package (SOIC_N), RoHS-compliant, with creepage and clearance ≥4.0 mm per IEC 62368-1.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VDD1 | Input-side supply | Power source for channel inputs VIA/VIB; must be stable within 3.135–5.5 V for correct logic sampling. |
| 2 - VIA | Channel A input | CMOS-compatible digital input referenced to VDD1/GND1; accepts 0.3×VDD1 to 0.7×VDD1 thresholds. |
| 3 - VIB | Channel B input | Independent CMOS input on Side 1; electrically isolated from VOA/VOB but shares same supply domain. |
| 4 - GND1 | Input-side ground | Return path for VDD1 and input signals; must be separated from GND2 by ≥4.0 mm PCB clearance. |
| 5 - GND2 | Output-side ground | Return path for VDD2 and outputs VOA/VOB; forms isolation barrier boundary with GND1. |
| 6 - VOB | Channel B output | CMOS output referenced to VDD2/GND2; defaults low when VDD1 is unpowered or inactive. |
| 7 - VOA | Channel A output | Independent CMOS output on Side 2; synchronized with VIA but isolated from all Side 1 nodes. |
| 8 - VDD2 | Output-side supply | Power source for outputs VOA/VOB; supports level translation (e.g., 3.3 V input → 5 V output). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|

FAQ
What is the default output state of the ADUM1285WBRZ?
The ADUM1285WBRZ has a default-low output state on both channels (VOA and VOB). When input-side power (VDD1) is unpowered or inactive, the outputs remain low-a fail-safe behavior critical for motor control and battery disconnect applications. This distinguishes it from the ADUM1280/ADUM1281 variants, which default high.
Does the ADUM1285WBRZ support level translation between different supply voltages?
Yes, the ADUM1285WBRZ supports true bidirectional level translation: VDD1 can operate from 3.135 V to 5.5 V independently of VDD2, enabling interfaces such as 3.3 V microcontroller to 5 V ADC or 5 V PLC logic to 3.3 V sensor interface. No external components are required for voltage domain bridging.
What safety certifications does the ADUM1285WBRZ hold?
The ADUM1285WBRZ is certified to UL 1577 (3000 VRMS), IEC/EN/CSA 62368-1, IEC/CSA 61010-1, and DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) for reinforced insulation. Its VIORM = 565 VPEAK and 4.0 mm creepage/clearance meet stringent industrial and automotive safety standards.
How does the ADUM1285WBRZ maintain DC correctness without input transitions?
The ADUM1285WBRZ uses a patented internal refresh circuit that samples and retransmits the last valid input state every 1.6 µs. This ensures output stability during static input conditions or power-up sequences-eliminating the DC drift issues common in optocouplers and older capacitive isolators.
Is the ADUM1285WBRZ suitable for automotive applications?
Yes, the ADUM1285WBRZ is AEC-Q100 qualified (Grade 1, −40°C to +125°C) and designed for automotive battery monitoring, inverter control, and charging systems. Its VDE 0884-17 certification, 125°C operation, and default-low fail-safe output make it appropriate for ASIL-B compliant subsystems.
