Product details
Overview
ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL from Analog Devices is a 6-channel, 5.0 kVRMS reinforced digital isolator using iCoupler® technology, with 150 Mbps guaranteed data rate, 13 ns max propagation delay at 5 V, and fail-safe high output configuration. It enables robust SPI/data converter isolation in industrial PLCs and motor drives requiring galvanic separation between MCU and high-voltage power stages.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL datasheet, ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL pinout, ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL application, or ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL equivalent, key selection criteria include its 1.8 V to 5.5 V dual-supply operation, 100 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity, AEC-Q100 qualification, and SOIC_IC wide-body package with 8.7 mm creepage/clearance for reinforced insulation compliance.
Technical Context
The ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL implements six independent unidirectional channels using monolithic air-core transformers, supporting asymmetric voltage translation (e.g., 1.8 V input to 5 V output) and ensuring DC correctness without input transitions. Its architecture delivers tight channel-to-channel propagation delay matching (≤4.0 ns codirectional skew) and low jitter (70 ps rms).
Fail-safe behavior is defined by the N1 suffix: outputs default to logic high when either side's supply is absent. The device meets reinforced insulation requirements per DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17), UL 1577, and IEC 62368-1, with VIORM = 849 VPEAK and rated working voltage of 600 VRMS.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8661ED-B-IS | 6-channel, 5.0 kVRMS, 150 Mbps, but uses capacitive isolation and has 15 ns max propagation delay at 5 V | Lacks AEC-Q100 qualification; VIORM = 600 VPEAK vs. 849 VPEAK - not suitable for reinforced insulation in medical or automotive systems | Select when cost sensitivity outweighs need for automotive qualification or highest CMTI margin |
| ISO6761FRDWR | 6-channel, 5.0 kVRMS, 50 Mbps max data rate, 25 ns max propagation delay, failsafe low (N0-type) | Lower speed and higher latency limit use in high-bandwidth SPI or fast encoder interfaces; failsafe low conflicts with ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL's high-default requirement | Choose only for legacy designs where lower bandwidth suffices and fail-safe polarity matches system logic architecture |
Compared with SI8661ED-B-IS and ISO6761FRDWR, ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL provides superior timing performance (13 ns vs. ≥15 ns), higher reinforced insulation rating (849 VPEAK), and automotive qualification - making it optimal for high-reliability, high-speed industrial and EV applications demanding strict safety compliance.

FAQ
What does the "N1" suffix indicate in ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL?
The "N1" suffix specifies the fail-safe output configuration: when either VDD1 or VDD2 is unpowered, all six outputs default to logic high. This behavior is confirmed in the datasheet's Truth Table and Functional Block Diagram sections and distinguishes ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL from the N0 variant (fail-safe low). The N1 setting is essential for systems where an active-high enable signal must remain asserted during power sequencing faults.
Does ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL support bidirectional communication on any channel?
No. ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL provides six unidirectional channels only - three input-to-output (INA→OUTA, INB→OUTB, INC→OUTC) and three output-to-input (IND→OUTD, INE→OUTE, INF→OUTF) - as shown in Figure 2 of the datasheet. Bidirectional signaling requires external direction-control logic or a separate isolator like the ADuM260N series, which offers configurable channel directionality.
What is the maximum continuous working voltage supported by ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL?
ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL supports a maximum continuous working voltage (VIOWM) of 600 VRMS, as specified in Table 12 under DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17). This value applies to reinforced insulation in pollution degree 2 environments at altitudes ≤2000 m and defines the upper limit for sustained AC or DC voltage across the isolation barrier in end-equipment design.
Can ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL operate with different supply voltages on each side?
Yes. ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL supports independent supply voltages from 1.7 V to 5.5 V on VDD1 and VDD2, enabling true level translation - for example, 1.8 V MCU I/O to 5 V ADC interface. This capability is explicitly verified in the Recommended Operating Conditions (Table 13) and Electrical Characteristics tables across 1.8 V, 2.5 V, 3.3 V, and 5 V operation modes.
Is ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL pin-compatible with other ADuM26xN variants?
Yes. All ADuM260N/ADuM261N/ADuM262N/ADuM263N devices share identical 16-lead SOIC_IC (RI-16) packaging and pinout, including ADUM261N1BRIZ-RL. Channel count, directionality, and fail-safe behavior differ by part number, but PCB layout and footprint are fully interchangeable - allowing design reuse across functional variants without layout changes.
