Product details
Overview
ADUM3400CRWZ from Analog Devices is a quad-channel digital isolator using iCoupler® transformer-based technology, providing galvanic isolation for bidirectional signal transmission across a 2500 Vrms reinforced barrier. It supports up to 90 Mbps NRZ data rate, operates from 3.0 V to 5.5 V on both sides, and delivers 2 ns max pulse width distortion and 10 ns max channel-to-channel matching in CRW-grade configuration-enabling high-fidelity SPI and RS-485 isolation in industrial PLCs and motor drives.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM3400CRWZ datasheet, ADUM3400CRWZ pinout, ADUM3400CRWZ application, or ADUM3400CRWZ equivalent, this device is selected for high-speed, low-jitter, system-level ESD-robust isolation where precise timing, 3.3/5 V level translation, and >25 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity are required in compact SOIC-16W packaging.
Technical Context
The ADUM3400CRWZ implements four independent unidirectional channels (A→B direction only), with all inputs on side 1 (VDD1) and all outputs on side 2 (VDD2). Its monolithic air-core transformer coupling eliminates optocoupler drift and lifetime concerns while enabling stable DC-correct operation via patented refresh circuitry active during idle or power transitions.
It features output enable (OE) control per side, supports mixed-voltage operation (3.3 V/5 V or 5 V/3.3 V), and meets DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) with VIORM = 560 Vpeak. The CRW grade guarantees 90 Mbps performance with 27 ns typical propagation delay and <2 ns pulse width distortion at 25°C.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8640ED-B-IS | Capacitive isolation; 100 Mbps max; 2.5 kVrms rating; no integrated refresh; higher CMTI (35 kV/µs) | Lacks reinforced insulation certification (IEC 60601-1, IEC 60747-17); not rated for medical or safety-critical industrial use | Select when highest CMTI and lowest propagation delay (10 ns typ.) are prioritized over regulatory compliance scope. |
| ISO6740QDWR | Capacitive isolation; 50 Mbps max; 5000 Vrms rating; 3.3 V only; no level translation; lower power (1.2 mA/ch @ 1 Mbps) | Requires external level shifters for 5 V interfacing; lacks mixed-voltage operation and system-level ESD enhancements | Select for cost-sensitive, lower-speed, single-supply 3.3 V systems where UL/VDE certifications are less critical. |
Compared with SI8640ED-B-IS and ISO6740QDWR, ADUM3400CRWZ uniquely combines 90 Mbps speed, 2500 Vrms reinforced isolation with full regulatory coverage (IEC 60601-1, VDE 0884-17), and native 3.3/5 V level translation-making it the only option qualified for high-speed, safety-certified industrial and medical isolation without external support components.

FAQ
What is the maximum guaranteed data rate for ADUM3400CRWZ?
The ADUM3400CRWZ is rated for a maximum guaranteed data rate of 90 Mbps (NRZ) with pulse width distortion ≤2 ns. This specification is validated across the full operating temperature range (−40°C to +105°C) and applies to all four channels simultaneously under load conditions specified in the datasheet (CL = 15 pF, CMOS levels). The CRW grade designation confirms this performance tier.
Does ADUM3400CRWZ support bidirectional communication on each channel?
No, ADUM3400CRWZ implements four unidirectional channels: A1–A4 are inputs referenced to VDD1/GND1, and B1–B4 are corresponding outputs referenced to VDD2/GND2. Bidirectional functionality requires external routing (e.g., pairing two channels) or use of the ADUM3401/ADUM3402 variants, which offer different channel direction configurations.
Can ADUM3400CRWZ operate with 3.3 V on one side and 5 V on the other?
Yes, ADUM3400CRWZ supports mixed-supply operation: VDD1 = 3.3 V / VDD2 = 5 V or VDD1 = 5 V / VDD2 = 3.3 V. Input thresholds and output drive levels automatically adapt-VIH is 1.6 V (3.3 V side) or 2.0 V (5 V side), and VOH reaches (VDDx − 0.1 V), enabling seamless level translation without external components.
What safety certifications does ADUM3400CRWZ hold?
ADUM3400CRWZ is certified to UL 1577 (2500 Vrms/1 min), IEC/CSA 62368-1, IEC/CSA 60601-1 (medical), IEC/CSA 61010-1 (industrial), CQC GB 4943.1, and DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) with VIORM = 560 Vpeak. These approvals confirm reinforced insulation suitability for safety-critical end equipment.
How does the refresh feature in ADUM3400CRWZ ensure DC correctness?
The ADUM3400CRWZ incorporates a patented internal refresh circuit that periodically samples and retransmits the last valid input state during static conditions or power transitions. This ensures outputs retain correct logic levels even with no input toggling-critical for maintaining safe states in control systems during startup, brownout, or watchdog timeout events.
