Product details
Overview
ISO122JU from Texas Instruments is a precision isolation amplifier with galvanic barrier isolation, 1500 Vrms rated withstand voltage, 140 dB IMR at 60 Hz, ±10 V output swing, and 50 kHz small-signal bandwidth. It operates across dual ±4.5 V to ±18 V supplies and delivers 0.020% maximum nonlinearity for high-accuracy analog signal transmission in industrial transducer interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the ISO122JU datasheet, ISO122JU pinout, ISO122JU application, or ISO122JU equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, validated pin functions, real-world use cases in thermocouple amplification and 4–20 mA loop isolation, and confirmed alternative options with documented functional differences.
Technical Context
The ISO122JU employs duty-cycle modulation-demodulation across an embedded 2-pF differential capacitive barrier, enabling digital signal transmission without analog degradation from barrier characteristics. Its input section integrates VIN/200 kΩ current against a switched ±100-mA source, generating a 500 kHz carrier-modulated waveform.
The output demodulator reconstructs the analog signal using a sense amplifier, integrator A2, and sample-and-hold stages that suppress inherent 500 kHz ripple (20 mVp-p). Laser-trimmed circuitry ensures matched gain and offset between isolated sections, delivering stable ±200 µV/°C VOS drift and 2 V/µs slew rate.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 1500 Vrms continuous - meets reinforced insulation requirements for industrial safety standards |
| Input-to-Output IMR | 140 dB at 60 Hz - rejects common-mode noise from ground loops in motor control or power monitoring |
| Nonlinearity | ±0.020% FSR - enables <1 LSB error in 12-bit system-level accuracy for RTD or pressure bridge interfaces |
| Small-Signal Bandwidth | 50 kHz - supports fast transient response in SCR gate drive feedback or battery stack monitoring |
| Supply Range | ±4.5 V to ±18 V - allows flexible biasing from isolated DC-DC converters or split-rail lab supplies |
| Output Drive | ±15 mA - directly drives 2 kΩ loads or low-pass filter op amps without external buffering |
| Quiescent Current | ±5 mA on VS1, ±5.5 mA on VS2 - enables low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-constrained systems |
Pinout & Package
ISO122JU is packaged in a 28-lead SOIC (DVA package), 20.01 mm × 6.61 mm body size, with creepage and clearance optimized for reinforced isolation. Pin 14 and pin 28 serve as separate ground references for low-side and high-side domains respectively, requiring physical separation on PCB layout.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VIN | High-side analog input | Accepts ±10 V differential input; internally referenced to GND1; supports overvoltage beyond supply rails via 200 kΩ input impedance |
| VOUT | Low-side analog output | Delivers unity-gain buffered ±10 V output; contains 20 mVp-p 500 kHz ripple requiring optional 2-pole filtering |
| +VS1 / –VS1 | High-side analog supply | Powers input section; ±4.5 V to ±18 V range; requires local 1 µF tantalum bypass near pins 1 and 2 |
| +VS2 / –VS2 | Low-side analog supply | Powers output section; independent of VS1; same voltage range; bypass required at pins 15 and 16 |
| GND1 | High-side ground reference | Pin 28 - return path for VIN and VS1; must be physically isolated from low-side ground plane |
| GND2 | Low-side ground reference | Pin 14 - return path for VOUT and VS2; forms isolated domain with no conductive connection to GND1 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Digital modulation barrier | 2-pF embedded capacitive isolation eliminates analog drift and aging effects seen in optocoupler-based isolators |
| Fixed unity-gain configuration | No external resistors needed - simplifies BOM and layout while guaranteeing gain accuracy within ±0.05% FSR |
| High-voltage reliability test | 100% tested to 2400 Vrms partial discharge limit per VDE0884 - confirms long-term barrier integrity under transient stress |
| Thermal stability | ±200 µV/°C input offset drift - maintains calibration stability across –25°C to +85°C operating range |
| Carrier frequency immunity | 500 kHz internal oscillator - avoids interference with standard 50/60 Hz power line harmonics and switching regulator noise |
Applications
| Transducer Isolation for Industrial Sensors | Ground Loop Elimination in Motor Control |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar isolation amplifier applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO124JU | Wider supply range (±4.5 V to ±22 V), higher 200 kHz bandwidth, but 0.05% nonlinearity and 1000 Vrms rating | Better suited for high-speed motor control feedback; less suitable for precision sensor conditioning where 140 dB IMR is critical | Select ISO124JU only when bandwidth >100 kHz is required and IMR >130 dB is acceptable |
| AMC1301DWVR | Reinforced isolation (7000 Vpk), 20 MHz bandwidth, but delta-sigma modulator output requiring external digital filter | Requires MCU or FPGA for decimation; not pin-compatible; targets modern digital acquisition over legacy analog systems | Choose AMC1301DWVR for new designs needing high CMTI (>100 kV/µs) and digital interface; avoid for drop-in analog replacement |
Compared with ISO122JU, ISO124JU trades precision and IMR for speed and supply flexibility, while AMC1301DWVR replaces analog output with digital bitstream - making ISO122JU uniquely suited for legacy analog signal chains requiring plug-and-play isolation without firmware changes.

FAQ
What is the maximum continuous isolation voltage rating for ISO122JU?
The ISO122JU is rated for 1500 Vrms continuous isolation voltage per UL1577 and IEC60747-5-2 standards. It undergoes 100% production testing at 2400 Vrms for partial discharge, ensuring robust barrier integrity under transient overvoltage conditions without degradation.
Does ISO122JU require external components for basic operation?
No, ISO122JU operates in fixed unity-gain configuration with no external gain-setting resistors required. However, 1 µF tantalum bypass capacitors are mandatory on all four supply pins (+VS1, –VS1, +VS2, –VS2) placed adjacent to the device to suppress 500 kHz carrier feedthrough and ensure stable modulation-demodulation.
Can ISO122JU interface directly with a 4–20 mA current loop?
Yes, ISO122JU can interface with 4–20 mA loops using a precision shunt resistor (e.g., 250 Ω) on the high-side to convert current to 1–5 V, which falls within its ±10 V input range. The device's ±4.5 V minimum supply allows operation from common 12–24 V loop power supplies without additional regulation.
What is the purpose of separate GND1 and GND2 pins on ISO122JU?
GND1 (pin 28) serves as the high-side ground reference for VIN and VS1, while GND2 (pin 14) is the low-side ground for VOUT and VS2. These pins define two electrically isolated ground domains - maintaining galvanic separation requires physical PCB separation and no copper pours or vias bridging between them.
How does ISO122JU handle input signals above 250 kHz?
ISO122JU uses 500 kHz duty-cycle modulation, so input frequencies above 250 kHz exhibit aliasing behavior per Nyquist theory. The output generates lower-frequency replicas (e.g., 800 kHz IMV produces 200 kHz spurious content), as shown in Figure 9 of the SBOS160A datasheet - limiting usable bandwidth to 250 kHz for distortion-free operation.
