Product details
Overview
MAX14930AASE+ from Analog Devices is a 4-channel, 2.75kVRMS galvanic digital isolator in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (10.3mm × 7.5mm), supporting unidirectional signal transfer at up to 150Mbps with 1.71V–5.5V dual-supply operation and -40°C to +125°C ambient rating. It delivers robust isolation for industrial fieldbus, isolated SPI/RS-485, and battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX14930AASE+ datasheet, MAX14930AASE+ pinout, MAX14930AASE+ application, or MAX14930AASE+ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, channel-level timing specs (e.g., 5.1ns tPLH typ @5V), safety certifications (UL1577, VDE 0884-11), and real-world design trade-offs versus alternatives.
Technical Context
The MAX14930AASE+ implements capacitive isolation with proprietary dielectric barrier technology, enabling 2.75kVRMS withstand voltage (60s) and 443VRMS continuous working voltage (VIOWM). Its architecture supports three unidirectional channel configurations - ideal for SPI master-slave, RS-232 level-shifting, and digital I/O isolation - but excludes bidirectional protocols like I²C.
It features independent A-side and B-side supplies (1.71V–5.5V), enabling level translation between disparate logic domains. The device includes enable-controlled three-state outputs (tTRI = 2.7ns typ @5V) and achieves 25kV/µs common-mode transient immunity (CMTI), critical for noisy industrial motor drive environments.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 2.75kVRMS for 60s (VISO); enables compliance with reinforced insulation requirements in industrial safety standards. |
| Max Data Rate | 150Mbps - supports high-speed serial interfaces such as isolated USB bridge control or fast sensor data acquisition. |
| Propagation Delay | 5.1ns (tPLH typ @5V) - ensures tight timing margins in real-time control loops and deterministic communication. |
| CMTI | 25kV/µs - suppresses false triggering during fast transients in motor drives or power converters. |
| Supply Range | 1.71V–5.5V per side - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers and 5V legacy peripherals without external level shifters. |
| Operating Temp | -40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and medical equipment deployments. |
| Package | 16-pin wide-body SOIC (10.3mm × 7.5mm, 8mm creepage/clearance) - meets IPC-2221B spacing requirements for 300V RMS working voltage. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin wide-body SOIC (W16M+8), outline 21-0042, 8mm creepage and clearance, RoHS-compliant.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INA1–INA4 | A-side digital inputs | Accept 1.71V–5.5V logic signals; VIH = 0.7×VDDA, VIL = 0.6–0.8V depending on supply. |
| INB1–INB4 | B-side digital inputs | Isolated input side for reverse-direction channels; referenced to GNDB. |
| OUTA1–OUTA4 | A-side digital outputs | CMOS outputs driving up to 4mA; VOH = VDDA – 0.4V, VOL = 0.4V. |
| OUTB1–OUTB4 | B-side digital outputs | Isolated output side; matched propagation delay skew ≤0.9ns (same-direction channels). |
| VDDA / VDDB | Independent power supplies | Enable level translation; undervoltage lockout (VUVLO = 1.45–1.71V) prevents erratic behavior during brownout. |
| GNDA / GNDB | Isolated ground references | Must be kept separate; no shared ground plane across isolation barrier. |
| ENA / ENB | Output enable controls | Active-high enables outputs; tEN = 5.1ns typ @5V, tTRI = 2.7ns typ - supports dynamic channel gating. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 2.75kVRMS Isolation | Meets UL1577, VDE 0884-11 Basic Insulation, and IEC 61000-4-5 ±10kV surge immunity - certified for industrial safety-critical systems. |
| 150Mbps Data Rate | Enables real-time isolation of high-speed serial links (e.g., isolated CAN FD controllers or fast ADC interfaces) without protocol overhead. |
| Low Propagation Skew | Channel-to-channel skew ≤0.9ns (same direction) ensures synchronous sampling across all four channels in time-critical applications. |
| Dual-Supply Level Translation | 1.71V–5.5V operation on both sides eliminates need for external level shifters when interfacing 1.8V FPGAs with 3.3V/5V sensors or actuators. |

FAQ
What isolation voltage rating does the MAX14930AASE+ support, and which safety standards does it meet?
The MAX14930AASE+ is rated for 2.75kVRMS withstand voltage (60s), 443VRMS continuous working voltage (VIOWM), and 630VPK repetitive peak voltage (VIORM). It is certified to UL1577 (file E351759), CSA cUL (equivalent to Bulletin 5A), VDE 0884-11:2017-01 (Basic Insulation), and TÜV IEC 60950-1/61010-1/60601-1. These approvals validate its use in industrial, medical, and test equipment requiring reinforced insulation.
Does the MAX14930AASE+ support bidirectional communication like I²C?
No, the MAX14930AASE+ is a unidirectional digital isolator - all four channels transmit in one fixed direction (A→B or B→A depending on variant). For bidirectional protocols such as I²C, Analog Devices specifies the MAX14933 family. The MAX14930AASE+ is intended for SPI, RS-232, RS-485, and general-purpose digital I/O isolation where directionality is static and known at design time.
What is the minimum pulse width the MAX14930AASE+ can reliably pass at 150Mbps operation?
At its maximum 150Mbps data rate, the MAX14930AASE+ guarantees a minimum pulse width (PWMIN) of 6.67ns for signals crossing the isolation barrier (INA_ to OUTB_ or INB_ to OUTA_). This specification ensures clean transmission of narrow pulses used in high-frequency PWM feedback, encoder quadrature signals, or fast interrupt lines without edge degradation or dropout.
How does the MAX14930AASE+ handle supply undervoltage conditions?
The MAX14930AASE+ incorporates undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuitry on both VDDA and VDDB rails, with thresholds of 1.45V–1.71V (typical hysteresis = 50mV). When either supply drops below UVLO, outputs enter a high-impedance or default state (configurable as high or low), preventing undefined logic states and metastability during power-up/power-down sequences - a critical feature for fault-tolerant industrial control systems.
Can the MAX14930AASE+ be used with 1.8V logic on one side and 5V logic on the other?
Yes - the MAX14930AASE+ supports independent 1.71V–5.5V supplies on both A-side (VDDA/GNDA) and B-side (VDDB/GNDB), enabling seamless level translation. For example, it can isolate a 1.8V FPGA I/O bank from a 5V RS-485 transceiver while maintaining full 150Mbps throughput and sub-6ns propagation delay, eliminating external level shifters and reducing BOM count.
