Product details
Overview
ADUM2401BRIZ from Analog Devices is a quad-channel digital isolator using iCoupler® transformer-based isolation technology, providing bidirectional signal transmission across a reinforced insulation barrier. It supports 3 V/5 V level translation, operates up to 10 Mbps with ≤3 ns pulse width distortion, and delivers high common-mode transient immunity (>25 kV/µs) for use in motor drive gate driver interfaces and isolated power supply feedback loops.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM2401BRIZ datasheet, ADUM2401BRIZ pinout, ADUM2401BRIZ application, or ADUM2401BRIZ equivalent, this device is selected for high-reliability industrial isolation where precise timing, low power at medium data rates, and regulatory-compliant creepage/clearance are required - especially in medical equipment and IEC 62368-1/60601-1 certified systems.
Technical Context
The ADUM2401BRIZ implements four independent unidirectional channels (2 forward, 2 reverse), enabling asymmetric communication across the isolation barrier without external direction control logic. Its monolithic air-core transformer coupling eliminates LED aging and CTR drift, supporting stable operation from −40°C to +105°C with guaranteed dc correctness via patented refresh circuitry during idle or power-transition states.
It features output enable functionality per side (EN1/EN2 pins), allowing dynamic channel shutdown to reduce system-level standby current. The device operates with asymmetric supply configurations (e.g., 5 V primary / 3 V secondary), maintaining full timing specifications and logic thresholds across mixed-voltage domains.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Max Data Rate | 10 Mbps - guarantees ≤3 ns pulse width distortion for clean NRZ signal integrity in motor control PWM and SPI isolation. |
| Pulse Width Distortion | ≤3 ns - ensures minimal duty cycle error critical for timing-sensitive feedback paths in isolated DC-DC converters. |
| Channel-to-Channel Matching | ≤3 ns codirectional, ≤6 ns opposing - enables synchronized sampling of multi-sensor inputs in industrial PLC I/O modules. |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | >25 kV/µs - sustains reliable operation during fast-switching events in 600 V+ motor inverters and HV battery monitoring. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 2.7 V to 5.5 V per side - supports direct interfacing with both 3.3 V microcontrollers and 5 V legacy peripherals without level-shifter ICs. |
| Isolation Rating | 5000 V rms (1 min), VIORM = 645 V peak - meets reinforced insulation requirements for Class I medical devices and industrial safety standards. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +105°C - qualified for under-hood automotive subsystems and enclosed industrial drives without derating. |
Pinout & Package
The ADUM2401BRIZ is housed in a 16-lead SOIC wide-body package (RI-16) with enhanced creepage (≥8.0 mm) and clearance (≥8.3 mm), certified to DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) for reinforced insulation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Primary-side power supply | Accepts 2.7–5.5 V; powers input-side logic and transformers; decoupling required within 10 mm. |
| GND1 | Primary-side ground reference | Must be separated from GND2 by ≥8.3 mm; forms one side of reinforced isolation barrier. |
| INA, INB | Input signals (primary side) | CMOS-compatible; VIH = 2.0 V (5 V mode) or 1.6 V (3 V mode); drives internal transformer primary. |
| ENA | Primary-side output enable | Active-low; disables outputs A/B when pulled low; reduces quiescent current to <1 µA per channel. |
| VDD2 | Secondary-side power supply | Independent 2.7–5.5 V rail; enables voltage translation; must be decoupled locally. |
| GND2 | Secondary-side ground reference | Galvanically isolated from GND1; defines output-side logic levels and return path. |
| OUTA, OUTB | Output signals (secondary side) | CMOS outputs; VOH ≥ VDD2 − 0.4 V @ 3.2 mA; supports direct connection to MCU GPIO or ADC drivers. |
| ENB | Secondary-side output enable | Active-low; independently controls outputs C/D; allows partial system shutdown without affecting primary logic. |
| INC, IND | Input signals (secondary side) | Bidirectional capability: accept signals from isolated side back to primary; VIH/VIL scale with VDD1. |
| OUTC, OUTD | Output signals (primary side) | Drive primary-side loads (e.g., MCU interrupts or status flags); referenced to GND1. |
Key Features

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8641BB-B-IS | Capacitive isolation; 10 Mbps max; 2.5 kV rms rating; no integrated refresh circuit. | Lacks reinforced insulation rating (VIORM = 500 V peak vs. 645 V); not certified to IEC 60601-1. | Prefer ADUM2401BRIZ for medical or high-voltage industrial use; SI8641BB-B-IS suits cost-sensitive consumer-grade isolation. |
| ISO6741-Q1 | Capacitive isolation; AEC-Q100 qualified; 50 Mbps max; 5000 V rms rating; different pinout (SOIC-16 but non-compatible). | Automotive-qualified but lacks 3 V/5 V translation support; requires external level shifters for mixed-voltage systems. | Select ADUM2401BRIZ when voltage translation and medical/industrial certifications are mandatory; ISO6741-Q1 fits automotive body electronics only. |
Compared with SI8641BB-B-IS and ISO6741-Q1, the ADUM2401BRIZ uniquely combines reinforced 5000 V rms isolation, integrated 3 V/5 V translation, and patented dc-correct refresh - making it the only option qualified for Class I medical equipment and high-CMTI industrial motor drives without design compromises.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by ADUM2401BRIZ?
The ADUM2401BRIZ supports a maximum data rate of 10 Mbps while guaranteeing ≤3 ns pulse width distortion. This specification is validated under load conditions (CL = 15 pF, CMOS signal levels) and applies across its full operating temperature range (−40°C to +105°C). Higher-speed variants like ADUM2401CRIZ support up to 90 Mbps, but ADUM2401BRIZ is optimized for robustness at medium-speed industrial interfaces.
Does ADUM2401BRIZ support mixed-voltage operation between primary and secondary sides?
Yes, ADUM2401BRIZ supports true mixed-voltage operation: VDD1 can be 5 V while VDD2 is 3.3 V (or vice versa), with fully specified logic thresholds and timing performance. In 5 V/3 V mode, VIH is 2.0 V on the 5 V side and 1.6 V on the 3 V side, enabling seamless level translation without external components - a key feature confirmed in Table 3 of the Rev. H datasheet.
What safety certifications apply to ADUM2401BRIZ?
ADUM2401BRIZ (RI-16 package) is certified to UL 1577 (5000 V rms, 1 minute), IEC/EN/CSA 62368-1, IEC/CSA 60601-1, IEC/CSA 61010-1, CQC GB 4943.1, and DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) with VIORM = 645 V peak. These approvals validate its use in Class I medical devices and industrial equipment requiring reinforced insulation.
How does the refresh feature in ADUM2401BRIZ ensure dc correctness?
The ADUM2401BRIZ incorporates a patented refresh circuit that periodically samples and retransmits the last valid input state during static conditions or power transitions. This prevents output drift or metastability when inputs remain unchanged for extended periods - a critical capability for safety interlocks and isolated watchdog circuits where dc accuracy must be maintained without relying on external clock sources.
Can ADUM2401BRIZ replace optocouplers directly in existing designs?
ADUM2401BRIZ provides pin-compatible replacement for many quad optocoupler solutions (e.g., PS2561L-4) in SOIC-16 footprints, but requires attention to enable pin usage (ENA/ENB) and decoupling layout. Unlike optocouplers, it draws significantly less current (e.g., 1.8 mA total at 2 Mbps vs. >10 mA for equivalent optos) and eliminates CTR variation - however, PCB layout must maintain ≥8.3 mm creepage between GND1/GND2 per IEC 60747-17.
