Product details
Overview
ISO7221ADRG4 from Texas Instruments is a dual-channel digital isolator with 1Mbps signaling rate, 1ns max channel-to-channel output skew, and 1ns max pulse-width distortion. It features silicon-dioxide isolation barrier rated for 4000VPK per VDE, operates from 2.8V/3.3V/5V supplies, and supports industrial automation interfaces including Modbus and Profibus.
For engineers reviewing the ISO7221ADRG4 datasheet, ISO7221ADRG4 pinout, ISO7221ADRG4 application, or ISO7221ADRG4 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, safety certifications (VDE 0884-17, UL 1577), failsafe logic behavior, and precise SOIC-8 pin mapping - all critical for isolated data bus design in factory automation and servo control systems.
Technical Context
The ISO7221ADRG4 implements a dual-channel, opposite-direction signal path architecture across a SiO₂ isolation barrier, enabling independent input/output supply domains (VCCI/GNDI and VCCO/GNDO). Its TTL-input threshold with integrated noise filter ensures robustness against transient coupling in noisy industrial environments.
Internal dc-refresh circuitry sends periodic 4μs pulses across the barrier to verify active input drive; failure triggers failsafe high-level output. Propagation delay (252–600ns) and sub-1ns PWD are guaranteed under 5V/5V, 5V/3.3V, and 3.3V/3.3V supply configurations per TI SLLS755U Rev. October 2025.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Signaling Rate | 1 Mbps - supports Modbus RTU and Profibus DP at standard baud rates without oversampling penalty |
| Channel-to-Channel Skew | ≤15 ns - ensures deterministic timing alignment between isolated A/B channels in synchronized control loops |
| Pulse-Width Distortion | ≤18 ns - preserves duty cycle integrity for PWM-based servo interface signals |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | ≥25 kV/μs - maintains data integrity during fast transients in motor drive ground noise environments |
| Isolation Voltage | 4000 VPK per VDE 0884-17 - meets reinforced insulation requirements for 250 VRMS mains-connected equipment |
| Failsafe Output Behavior | Logic-high on input power loss - prevents undefined states in safety-critical PLC I/O modules |
| Operating Temperature | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive ECUs and industrial motor drives |
Pinout & Package
ISO7221ADRG4 uses an 8-pin SOIC (D package) with 4.90mm × 3.91mm body size and 4.9mm × 6mm overall footprint. Input-side pins (VCCI, GNDI, INA, INB) are grouped on left; output-side pins (VCCO, GNDO, OUTA, OUTB) on right, with opposite-channel orientation versus ISO7220x series.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 (VCCI) | Input-side power supply | Accepts 2.8V/3.3V/5V; powers input buffer and isolation transmitter |
| 2 (INB) | Channel B input | TTL-compatible; includes noise filter to reject <200ns transients |
| 3 (VCCO) | Output-side power supply | Independent 2.8V/3.3V/5V domain; decouples output logic from input noise |
| 4 (GNDI) | Input-side ground | Reference for VCCI and input signals; galvanically isolated from GNDO |
| 5 (GNDO) | Output-side ground | Reference for VCCO and outputs; enables ground-loop elimination in multi-node buses |
| 6 (OUTB) | Channel B output | 4mA CMOS drive; failsafe-high if VCCI or input signal lost |
| 7 (INA) | Channel A input | TTL-compatible; identical noise filtering and threshold as INB |
| 8 (OUTA) | Channel A output | 4mA CMOS drive; matches OUTB timing specs for synchronous dual-channel use |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual-channel opposite-direction layout | Enables compact PCB routing for bidirectional serial buses (e.g., RS-485 half-duplex with isolated TX/RX) |
| TTL input thresholds with noise filter | Rejects <200ns EFT bursts per IEC 61000-4-4, eliminating external RC filtering components |
| 4μs dc-refresh failsafe | Guarantees defined logic-high output within 3μs of input power loss - critical for SIL-2 functional safety paths |
| VDE 0884-17 & UL 1577 certification | Validated reinforced insulation for 250 VRMS working voltage - reduces system-level safety validation effort |
| 2.8V/3.3V/5V dual-supply flexibility | Allows direct interface to legacy 5V microcontrollers and modern 3.3V/2.8V FPGAs without level shifters |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual-channel digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO7221CDRG4 | 25Mbps signaling rate vs. 1Mbps; same SOIC-8 package and pinout | Better suited for high-speed fieldbus backplanes (e.g., EtherCAT auxiliary links) but higher power consumption | Select ISO7221CDRG4 when >1Mbps bandwidth is required and thermal budget allows ~22mA ICC2 at 25Mbps |
| ADUM1201BRZ | 25kV/μs CMTI (vs. 25kV/μs min); 3.75kVRMS isolation rating (vs. 4000VPK); different pinout (SOIC-8, but channel A/B swapped) | Requires PCB redesign due to non-pin-compatible layout; lacks VDE 0884-17 certification for reinforced insulation | Choose ADUM1201BRZ only if existing layout accommodates its pin assignment and safety certification scope permits basic insulation |
Compared with ISO7221CDRG4 and ADUM1201BRZ, the ISO7221ADRG4 provides optimal balance of industrial-grade noise immunity, failsafe reliability, and drop-in compatibility in Modbus/Profibus designs - especially where 1Mbps bandwidth and VDE-certified reinforced isolation are mandatory.

FAQ
What is the maximum signaling rate supported by the ISO7221ADRG4?
The ISO7221ADRG4 supports up to 1 Mbps signaling rate, as specified in the TI SLLS755U datasheet Rev. October 2025. This rate is validated across all recommended supply configurations (2.8V, 3.3V, 5V) and ensures reliable operation in Modbus RTU and Profibus DP applications without exceeding propagation delay or PWD limits.
Does the ISO7221ADRG4 have built-in failsafe functionality?
Yes, the ISO7221ADRG4 includes a failsafe circuit that drives both outputs to logic high if the input side loses power or stops driving - verified by the 4μs dc-refresh mechanism. This behavior is explicitly documented in Section 3 of the ISO7221ADRG4 datasheet and ensures safe default states in PLC I/O and servo control applications.
Can ISO7221ADRG4 operate with mixed supply voltages like 5V on input and 3.3V on output?
Yes, the ISO7221ADRG4 supports asymmetric supply configurations including 5V VCCI with 3.3V VCCO. Electrical characteristics tables 5.10 and 5.11 in the datasheet confirm valid operation with propagation delays of 253–585ns and CMTI ≥15kV/μs under this condition - enabling seamless interfacing between legacy 5V controllers and modern 3.3V peripherals.
What safety certifications does the ISO7221ADRG4 hold?
The ISO7221ADRG4 is certified to DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) for reinforced insulation, UL 1577 for component recognition (File E181974), and IEC 62368-1. These certifications are listed in Section 5.7 of the official TI datasheet and validate its suitability for safety-critical industrial equipment up to 250 VRMS working voltage.
How does the ISO7221ADRG4 differ from the ISO7220ADRG4 in terms of channel orientation?
The ISO7221ADRG4 features opposite-direction channel orientation (INA→OUTA, INB→OUTB routed left-to-right and right-to-left respectively), whereas ISO7220ADRG4 uses same-direction layout. This difference is shown in Figures 4-1 and 4-2 of the datasheet and optimizes PCB routing for bidirectional protocols like RS-485 where transmit and receive paths cross.
