Product details
Overview
ADUM142E1BRZ from Analog Devices is a quad-channel digital isolator based on iCoupler® technology, providing 3.0 kVRMS galvanic isolation between two independent 2-channel data paths. It supports 150 Mbps data rate, 13 ns max propagation delay at 5 V, and operates across 1.8 V to 5 V supply rails with level translation. It is used in SPI isolation for industrial PLCs where high noise immunity and fail-safe outputs are required.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM142E1BRZ datasheet, ADUM142E1BRZ pinout, ADUM142E1BRZ application, or ADUM142E1BRZ equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOIC-16 pin mapping, AEC-Q100 qualification status, IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) compliance, and real-world use context for isolated serial interface design.
Technical Context
The ADUM142E1BRZ implements two independent 2-channel unidirectional data paths with fixed input-to-output directionality per side - channels A/B on Side 1 drive outputs C/D on Side 2. Its monolithic air-core transformer isolation architecture ensures dc-correct output states without input transitions and supports fail-safe high/low output configuration during power loss.
It features integrated undervoltage lockout (UVLO) with 1.6 V threshold, 100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity, and tight channel matching (≤3.0 ns skew). The device meets DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) for reinforced insulation and is rated for continuous operation up to +125°C ambient temperature.

Pinout & Package
ADUM142E1BRZ is housed in a 16-lead, RoHS-compliant, narrow-body SOIC package (R-16, JEDEC MS-012AC) with 4.0 mm creepage and clearance. Pin 1 is marked by a dot; pins 1–8 form the input-side bank (VDD1, GND1, A, B, DISABLE1, VE2, GND1, VDD1), and pins 9–16 form the output-side bank (VDD2, GND2, C, D, GND2, VDD2, NC, NC).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | VDD1 | Input-side supply (1.8 V to 5 V); powers channels A/B and input logic |
| 2 | GND1 | Input-side ground reference; must be decoupled locally to VDD1 |
| 3 | A | Unidirectional input channel A; drives output C on Side 2 |
| 4 | B | Unidirectional input channel B; drives output D on Side 2 |
| 5 | DISABLE1 | Active-high disable for input-side logic; pulls inputs to known state when asserted |
| 6 | VE2 | Enable input for output-side channel E2 (not applicable to ADUM142E1BRZ; tied low or left open) |
| 7 | GND1 | Second input-side ground pin; improves noise rejection and thermal dissipation |
| 8 | VDD1 | Second input-side supply pin; reduces IR drop and improves PSRR |
| 9 | VDD2 | Output-side supply (1.8 V to 5 V); powers channels C/D and output drivers |
| 10 | GND2 | Output-side ground reference; isolated from GND1; requires separate plane |
| 11 | C | Unidirectional output channel C; driven by input A |
| 12 | D | Unidirectional output channel D; driven by input B |
| 13 | GND2 | Second output-side ground pin; enhances return path integrity for high-speed edges |
| 14 | VDD2 | Second output-side supply pin; lowers impedance of output power rail |
| 15, 16 | NC | No-connect pins; must remain unconnected per datasheet layout guidance |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar quad-channel digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM142D1BRZ | Same package and pinout, but with default fail-high output instead of fail-low; identical timing and isolation specs | Preferred where bus idle state must be logic high (e.g., I²C pull-up domains) | Select ADUM142D1BRZ only if fail-high behavior aligns with system-level reset and initialization logic |
| SI8642ED-B-IS | Capacitive isolation; 5 kVRMS rating; 150 Mbps; 13 ns propagation delay; different pinout (SOIC-16 wide body) | Requires PCB layout change due to RW-16 footprint and non-pin-compatible pin assignment | Choose SI8642ED-B-IS only when higher isolation voltage (5 kV) or alternate certification (UL 1577 + VDE 0884-11) is mandatory |

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed data rate for ADUM142E1BRZ?
The ADUM142E1BRZ guarantees a data rate of 150 Mbps across its full operating temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) and supply voltage range (1.8 V to 5 V). This specification is validated per Table 1 through Table 7 in Rev. K datasheet and applies to all four channels simultaneously under CL = 15 pF loading conditions.
Does ADUM142E1BRZ support level translation between different supply voltages?
Yes, ADUM142E1BRZ supports true bidirectional level translation: VDD1 can operate from 1.8 V to 5 V independently of VDD2, which also ranges from 1.8 V to 5 V. This allows direct interfacing between a 1.8 V FPGA and a 5 V isolated ADC, with logic thresholds scaling to each side's VDDx (VIH = 0.7 × VDDx, VIL = 0.3 × VDDx).
What fail-safe output behavior does ADUM142E1BRZ provide?
The ADUM142E1BRZ is configured for fail-safe low output: when VDD1 is unpowered or DISABLE1 is asserted, outputs C and D transition to and hold logic low. This behavior is fixed per part number and cannot be changed externally - it prevents floating or high-impedance states in safety-critical power control circuits.
Is ADUM142E1BRZ pin-compatible with earlier ADuM140x series isolators?
Yes, ADUM142E1BRZ is explicitly pin-compatible with ADuM1400, ADuM1401, and ADuM1402 per the General Description section and Ordering Guide in Rev. K datasheet. This allows direct replacement in existing designs without PCB modification, retaining identical SOIC-16 (R-16) footprint and pin functions.
Which safety certifications apply to ADUM142E1BRZ?
ADUM142E1BRZ is certified to UL 1577 (3000 VRMS), IEC/EN/CSA 60950-1, IEC 60601-1, IEC 61010-1, CQC GB 4943.1, and DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17). These approvals cover reinforced insulation for industrial, medical, and measurement equipment operating up to 3000 VRMS working voltage.
