Product details
Overview
LTM2887CY-3I#PBF from Analog Devices is a galvanically isolated I²C µModule isolator with dual 5V isolated regulators, 3.3V input supply (3V–3.6V), industrial-grade temperature range (0°C to 70°C), and 2500VRMS isolation rating. It integrates isolated DC/DC conversion, logic-level translation (3V–5.5V on both sides), and high-speed bidirectional I²C isolation up to 400kHz - used in industrial sensor interfaces where ground-loop elimination and noise immunity are critical.
For engineers reviewing the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF datasheet, LTM2887CY-3I#PBF pinout, LTM2887CY-3I#PBF application, or LTM2887CY-3I#PBF equivalent, key selection considerations include its I²C master-mode compatibility, dual adjustable 5V isolated supplies (each ≥100mA), 30kV/µs common-mode transient immunity, ±10kV HBM ESD across barrier, and BGA-32 package with 15mm × 11.25mm footprint.
Technical Context
The LTM2887CY-3I#PBF implements transformer-based digital isolation using coreless inductors and an integrated isolated DC/DC converter, enabling full galvanic separation between primary (logic) and secondary (isolated) domains. Its I²C interface supports only master mode, with SCL/SDA inputs referenced to VL (3V–5.5V) and SCL2/SDA2 outputs referenced to VL2 (3V–5.5V).
Isolation barrier performance includes 2500VRMS withstand (1 min), 560VPEAK maximum continuous working voltage, and guaranteed operation under >30kV/µs common-mode transients. The device features fail-safe behavior: on isolation fault, SDA2/SCL2 default high, DO2 defaults high-impedance, and all outputs enter safe states without external supervision.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 2500VRMS for 1 minute - meets UL-CSA recognition (File #E151738) and enables safe operation in Class I medical and industrial mains-connected systems. |
| I²C Data Rate | 400kHz - supports standard-mode I²C peripherals without clock stretching or protocol modification. |
| Isolated Supplies | VCC2 and VL2: 5V nominal, adjustable down to 0.6V (VCC2) or 3V (VL2), each delivering ≥100mA - powers isolated sensors, ADCs, or microcontrollers without external regulators. |
| Common-Mode Immunity | ≥30kV/µs - ensures uninterrupted communication during fast transients (e.g., relay switching, motor commutation) in factory automation. |
| Logic Supply Range | VL = 3V to 5.5V; VL2 = 3V to 5.5V - allows direct interfacing with 3.3V or 5V logic families on both sides without level shifters. |

Pinout & Package
Package: 32-pin Ball Grid Array (BGA), 15mm × 11.25mm × 3.42mm, MSL Level 3, lead-free (PBF), SAC305 finish.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| DO2 (A1) | Digital Output (Logic Side) | Isolated-side input I2 mirrored to logic side; high-impedance on isolation fault - used for status feedback or auxiliary control signaling. |
| SCL (A3) | I²C Clock Input (Logic Side) | Unidirectional master clock input driving isolated SCL2; requires no pull-up on logic side - simplifies bus termination. |
| SDA (A4) | I²C Data Bidirectional (Logic Side) | Bidirectional data line connected to SDA2 via isolation barrier; high-impedance on fault - maintains bus integrity during failure. |
| DI1 (A5) | Digital Input (Logic Side) | Directly drives isolated output O1; level-compatible with VL (3V–5.5V) - enables discrete signal isolation alongside I²C. |
| ON (A7) | Enable Control | Active-high enable: high = full operation (power + data); low = logic reset + isolated side powered down - enables system-level power sequencing. |
| VL (A8) | Logic Supply Voltage | Supplies all logic-side I/O (SCL, SDA, DI1, DO1, DO2, ON); 3V–5.5V range - eliminates need for separate level-shifting rails. |
| VCC (B7–B8) | Main Input Supply | 3V–3.6V input powering internal DC/DC converter and logic domain - matches standard 3.3V system rails. |
| I2 (L1) | Digital Input (Isolated Side) | Receives logic from DO2; referenced to VL2/GND2 - enables isolated control of downstream devices (e.g., gate drivers, relays). |
| SCL2 (L3) | I²C Clock Output (Isolated Side) | Push-pull output; no external pull-up required; defaults high on fault - drives isolated I²C slaves directly. |
| SDA2 (L4) | I²C Data Bidirectional (Isolated Side) | Bidirectional with 1.8mA internal pull-up; defaults high on fault - eliminates external pull-ups and improves bus reliability. |
| O1 (L5) | Digital Output (Isolated Side) | Receives logic from DI1; referenced to VL2/GND2 - provides isolated digital control independent of I²C traffic. |
| VL2 (L6) | Isolated Logic Supply | 5V nominal, adjustable via AVL2 resistor; 3V–5.5V range; ≥100mA - powers isolated MCU peripherals without secondary regulators. |
| VCC2 (L8) | Isolated Power Supply | 5V nominal, adjustable via AVCC2 resistor; 0.6V–5.5V range; ≥100mA - powers isolated analog front-ends or sensors requiring precise voltage rails. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| No external components required | Integrated decoupling (1µF VL, 2.2µF VCC, 4.7µF VL2/VCC2, 10nF IVCC2/IVL2) eliminates BOM count and layout risk for isolated power and signal paths. |
| Dual independently adjustable 5V regulators | VCC2 and VL2 each support external resistor programming of current limit (49–115mA) and output voltage (via AVCC2/AVL2 pins) - enables fine-tuned power delivery to mixed-signal loads. |
| Fail-safe isolation behavior | On isolation fault: SCL2/SDA2 go high, DO2 goes high-Z, O1 goes high - prevents bus lockup and undefined states in safety-critical monitoring systems. |
| High-speed I²C isolation (400kHz) | Propagation delay ≤250ns (SDA→SDA2), pulse width uncertainty ±50ns - preserves timing margins for real-time sensor polling in PLC backplanes. |
| ±10kV HBM ESD across barrier | Robust electrostatic discharge protection between logic and isolated domains - reduces field failures in handling-sensitive industrial environments. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar I²C isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM1250ARZ | Single-channel I²C isolator (no integrated power); 2500VRMS; 1Mbps max data rate; requires external isolated 5V supply. | Cannot power isolated peripherals; limited to pure signal isolation; lower integration increases BOM and layout complexity. | Select when only signal isolation is needed and isolated power is already available on board. |

FAQ
What logic voltage ranges does the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF support on its input and isolated sides?
The LTM2887CY-3I#PBF supports VL = 3V to 5.5V on the logic side and VL2 = 3V to 5.5V on the isolated side. This allows direct interfacing with 3.3V or 5V microcontrollers, sensors, and peripherals without external level shifters. The input supply VCC is fixed at 3V–3.6V per the "-3" suffix, matching standard 3.3V system rails.
Does the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF support I²C slave mode operation?
No, the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF supports I²C master mode only, as explicitly stated in the datasheet's FEATURES section. The SCL2 and SDA2 pins are driven unidirectionally from the logic side; the device cannot respond to address-matched transactions initiated by an external I²C master on the isolated side.
How is the 5V output voltage adjusted on the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF's isolated supplies?
The LTM2887CY-3I#PBF uses dedicated adjust pins: AVL2 sets VL2 voltage and AVCC2 sets VCC2 voltage. Each pin has a nominal 600mV reference to GND2; connecting a resistor between the adjust pin and GND2 scales the output voltage linearly. For example, a 1.15kΩ resistor on AVL2 yields ~3.3V VL2 output, per the Application Information section.
What happens to the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF's outputs during an isolation barrier failure?
During isolation failure, the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF enters a defined fail-safe state: SCL2 and SDA2 default high, DO2 goes high-impedance, and O1 defaults high. This prevents bus contention, maintains I²C bus high-state integrity, and avoids undefined logic levels - critical for system-level fault containment in industrial controls.
Can the LTM2887CY-3I#PBF power both an isolated microcontroller and its peripheral sensors from its dual regulators?
Yes. The LTM2887CY-3I#PBF provides two independent 5V-regulated outputs (VCC2 and VL2), each capable of ≥100mA. VCC2 can power analog front-ends or sensors requiring precise low-noise rails, while VL2 powers digital peripherals like isolated MCUs or I/O expanders - all from a single 3.3V input without external regulators or transformers.
