Product details
Overview
ISO7241CQDWRQ1 from Texas Instruments is a high-speed quad-channel digital isolator with three unidirectional channels and one reverse-direction channel, 25 Mbps signaling rate, <1 ns channel-to-channel output skew, 2 ns max pulse-width distortion, and AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification for automotive use in CAN/RS-485 bus interfaces and motor control systems.
For engineers reviewing the ISO7241CQDWRQ1 datasheet, ISO7241CQDWRQ1 pinout, ISO7241CQDWRQ1 application, or ISO7241CQDWRQ1 equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-16 DW package layout, safety certifications (VDE 0884-17, UL 1577), and real-world implementation guidance for factory automation, servo drives, and isolated data acquisition.
Technical Context
The ISO7241CQDWRQ1 implements a silicon-dioxide (SiO₂) isolation barrier separating logic-input and logic-output buffers, enabling galvanic isolation up to 2500 VRMS with 4 kV ESD protection and 25-year lifetime at rated working voltage. It supports asymmetric supply configurations: VCC1 and VCC2 independently operate at 3.3 V or 5 V, with 5 V-tolerant inputs regardless of supply level.
Its channel configuration-three forward and one reverse-is fixed per device variant and enables bidirectional signal routing across isolation boundaries without external logic. The C-suffix denotes TTL input thresholds and integrated input noise filtering, distinguishing it from M-suffix CMOS-threshold variants lacking the filter.

Pinout & Package
ISO7241CQDWRQ1 uses a 16-pin SOIC (DW) package with 10.30 mm × 10.30 mm footprint and 10.30 mm × 7.50 mm body size. Pin 1 is top-left corner (notch side), with GND1 (pins 2,8), VCC1 (pin 1), GND2 (pins 9,15), and VCC2 (pin 16) forming dual-side power domains.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INA, INB, INC, IND | Input channels A–D | Logic-level inputs referenced to VCC1/GND1; IND is reverse-direction input (channel D input side). |
| OUTA, OUTB, OUTC, OUTD | Output channels A–D | Logic-level outputs referenced to VCC2/GND2; OUTD is reverse-direction output (channel D output side). |
| VCC1, GND1 | Input-side supply | Power domain for input buffers and internal logic; accepts 3.3 V or 5 V; pins 1,2,8. |
| VCC2, GND2 | Output-side supply | Power domain for output buffers; independent 3.3 V or 5 V supply; pins 16,9,15. |
| EN1 (pin 7), EN2 (pin 10) | Output enable controls | EN1 enables OUTA–OUTC (forward side); EN2 enables OUTD (reverse side); low = disable, high/open = enable. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| TTL input thresholds with noise filter | Prevents sub-20 ns transients from propagating across isolation, eliminating false triggering in electrically noisy factory floors. |
| Asymmetric supply operation | VCC1 and VCC2 may be independently set to 3.3 V or 5 V, enabling direct interface between legacy 5 V microcontrollers and modern 3.3 V FPGAs or ADCs. |
| Reinforced insulation barrier | SiO₂ dielectric provides 2500 VRMS withstand voltage and >10¹² Ω isolation resistance at 25°C, meeting IEC 61010-1 for measurement equipment. |
| Low propagation delay variation | 3 ns max channel-to-channel output skew (tsk(o)) ensures deterministic timing for multi-channel encoder or PWM feedback loops. |
| Fail-safe output capability | Not applicable to ISO7241CQDWRQ1 - failsafe control (CTRL/ DISABLE pins) is exclusive to ISO7240CF-Q1 variant; this part has no failsafe function. |

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO7241CDWRQ1 | No C-suffix; uses CMOS VCC/2 input thresholds and lacks input noise filter - higher susceptibility to fast transients but lower propagation delay (~18 ns typ at 5 V). | Suitable where EMI is minimal and timing-critical control loops demand lowest possible tPLH/tPHL. | Select ISO7241CDWRQ1 only if system-level transient immunity is confirmed via testing; otherwise ISO7241CQDWRQ1's noise filter provides robustness without performance penalty. |
| ADUM1401ARWZ-RL | Analog Devices part with 100 kV/μs CMTI, 100 Mbps rating, and different pinout (SOIC-16 but non-compatible mapping); no AEC-Q100 qualification. | Used in non-automotive industrial systems requiring higher CMTI or bandwidth; requires PCB redesign due to incompatible pin assignment. | Choose ADUM1401ARWZ-RL only when CMTI >50 kV/μs is mandatory and automotive qualification is unnecessary; ISO7241CQDWRQ1 offers better integration for automotive-grade designs. |
Compared with ISO7241CDWRQ1, ISO7241CQDWRQ1 trades ~3 ns higher typical propagation delay for guaranteed noise immunity in electrically hostile environments; versus ADUM1401ARWZ-RL, it provides AEC-Q100 compliance and optimized channel directionality for bidirectional bus protocols without layout rework.

FAQ
What is the channel direction configuration of ISO7241CQDWRQ1?
ISO7241CQDWRQ1 has three forward-direction channels (INA→OUTA, INB→OUTB, INC→OUTC) and one reverse-direction channel (IND←OUTD). This fixed 3:1 asymmetry enables native bidirectional data flow across the isolation barrier without external logic inversion or additional isolators, making it ideal for half-duplex bus protocols like Modbus or encoder feedback paths.
Does ISO7241CQDWRQ1 support failsafe output functionality?
No, ISO7241CQDWRQ1 does not include failsafe output control. That feature is exclusive to the ISO7240CF-Q1 variant, which uses CTRL and DISABLE pins to set output state during power loss or input disable. ISO7241CQDWRQ1 has no CTRL or DISABLE pins; its outputs follow input states directly when enabled, with no programmable default state.
What supply voltage combinations are supported by ISO7241CQDWRQ1?
ISO7241CQDWRQ1 supports independent 3.3 V or 5 V supplies on both sides: VCC1 (input side) and VCC2 (output side) may be set to 3.15–3.6 V or 4.5–5.5 V in any combination. Input pins are 5 V tolerant regardless of VCC1 level, allowing direct connection to 5 V logic even when VCC1 = 3.3 V - simplifying mixed-voltage system design.
How does the C-suffix affect ISO7241CQDWRQ1's input behavior?
ISO7241CQDWRQ1's "C" suffix specifies TTL-compatible input thresholds (VIH ≈ 2 V, VIL ≈ 0.8 V) and includes an integrated input noise filter that suppresses transients shorter than ~20 ns. This prevents false triggering from ESD or switching noise - a key differentiator from "M"-suffix variants with CMOS thresholds and no filter, which offer faster response but require cleaner signal sources.
Is ISO7241CQDWRQ1 pin-compatible with other ISO724x-Q1 variants?
Yes, ISO7241CQDWRQ1 shares the same SOIC-16 DW package and pinout as ISO7240CF-Q1 and ISO7242C-Q1, including identical VCC1, GND1, VCC2, GND2, and channel I/O placements. However, EN1/EN2 pin functions differ: ISO7241CQDWRQ1 uses EN1 (pin 7) for forward outputs and EN2 (pin 10) for reverse output, whereas ISO7240CF-Q1 uses DISABLE (pin 7) and CTRL (pin 10). Unused pins must be left floating or tied per variant-specific guidelines.
