Product details
Overview
ADUM231E1BRIZ from Analog Devices is a triple-channel, 5.0 kVRMS digital isolator using iCoupler® technology, designed for high-noise industrial interfaces. It delivers 150 Mbps data rate, 13 ns max propagation delay at 5 V, and 100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity. Its fail-safe high output state and 1.8 V to 5 V level translation support SPI isolation in motor drives and PLC I/O modules.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM231E1BRIZ datasheet, ADUM231E1BRIZ pinout, ADUM231E1BRIZ application, or ADUM231E1BRIZ equivalent, key selection criteria include reinforced insulation rating (849 VPEAK), SOIC-16 wide-body package with 8.3 mm creepage, channel matching ≤3.0 ns, and operation up to +125°C ambient.
Technical Context
The ADUM231E1BRIZ implements three independent unidirectional isolation channels using monolithic air-core transformers, enabling dc-correct output behavior without input transitions. Its architecture supports asymmetric supply operation (e.g., 1.8 V on side 1, 5 V on side 2) and includes integrated undervoltage lockout (1.5 V/1.6 V thresholds) on both sides.
It features two enable inputs (VE1, VE2) and one disable input (DISABLE1), allowing flexible power sequencing and channel gating. The device meets DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) for reinforced insulation and carries dual MOPP certification per IEC 60601-1 (237.5 VRMS).

Use Scenario: Isolating digital input/output signals between field-side sensors/actuators and controller backplane in harsh factory environments. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Acts as a robust, low-latency interface for 24 V DC discrete I/O with fail-safe high default. Use Value: Eliminates need for external pull-ups and reduces system-level EMI filtering complexity. |
| Medical Patient Monitoring Interface | Industrial Ethernet Gateway |
Use Scenario: Isolating UART or SPI links between isolated analog front-end (AFE) and host processor in Class II medical devices. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Delivers 2 MOPP reinforced insulation per IEC 60601-1 while supporting 100+ Mbps diagnostic data streaming. Use Value: Meets stringent creepage (8.3 mm), VIORM (849 VPEAK), and thermal derating requirements without external components. |
Use Scenario: Isolating management interfaces (e.g., MDIO, I2C) between Ethernet PHY and host SoC in DIN-rail mounted gateways. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Enables safe hot-swap of isolated network modules by maintaining defined output state during power sequencing. Use Value: Fail-safe high output prevents unintended PHY reset or configuration loss during brown-out conditions. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8631BB-B-IS | 3-channel, 5 kVRMS, 150 Mbps, but uses capacitive isolation and lacks VDE 0884-17 certification | Not certified for 2 MOPP medical use; lower CMTI (75 kV/µs) | Prefer ADUM231E1BRIZ where reinforced insulation and 100 kV/µs CMTI are mandatory |
| ISO6731RWR | 3-channel, 5 kVRMS, 50 Mbps max - significantly lower speed and no 1.8 V operation | Insufficient for high-speed SPI; limited to 3.3 V/5 V only | Choose ADUM231E1BRIZ when 150 Mbps, 1.8 V compatibility, and tight channel matching (<3 ns) are required |
Compared with SI8631BB-B-IS and ISO6731RWR, ADUM231E1BRIZ uniquely combines VDE 0884-17 certification, 100 kV/µs CMTI, 1.8 V operation, and sub-3 ns channel matching - making it optimal for high-reliability industrial and medical isolation where timing integrity and safety compliance are non-negotiable.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by ADUM231E1BRIZ?
ADUM231E1BRIZ supports a guaranteed maximum data rate of 150 Mbps across all three channels. This specification holds over the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +125°C) and supply voltage range (1.7 V to 5.5 V). Higher rates may be achievable in specific conditions but are not production-guaranteed.
Does ADUM231E1BRIZ support level translation between different logic voltages?
Yes, ADUM231E1BRIZ supports bidirectional level translation: side 1 can operate from 1.7 V to 5.5 V independently of side 2, which also operates from 1.7 V to 5.5 V. This enables direct interfacing between 1.8 V microcontrollers and 5 V peripherals without external level shifters.
What safety certifications apply to ADUM231E1BRIZ?
ADUM231E1BRIZ is certified to UL 1577 (5000 VRMS), DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17), IEC/EN/CSA 62368-1, IEC/CSA 60601-1 (2 MOPP), and IEC/CSA 61010-1. Its VIORM is 849 VPEAK, and it achieves 8.3 mm creepage in the RW-16 SOIC package.
How does the fail-safe output behavior work on ADUM231E1BRIZ?
ADUM231E1BRIZ is configured as a fail-safe high device: when VDD1 or VDD2 is absent or falls below UVLO threshold (1.5 V), all three output channels (pins 9–11) transition to and hold a logic high state. This prevents undefined states in safety-critical control paths.
What is the channel-to-channel matching specification for ADUM231E1BRIZ?
ADUM231E1BRIZ guarantees ≤3.0 ns maximum channel matching (tPSKCD) for codirectional signals and ≤3.0 ns for opposing-direction signals, measured across all three channels at 5 V, 25°C. This tight matching ensures deterministic timing in multi-line protocols like SPI.
