Product details
Overview
MAX14930AAWE+ from Analog Devices is a 4-channel, unidirectional digital isolator with 2.75kVRMS galvanic isolation, 1Mbps data rate, default-low output configuration, and wide-body SOIC-16 (10.3mm × 7.5mm) package. It operates from 1.71V to 5.5V on both sides, supports industrial temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), and delivers robust noise immunity (25kV/µs CMTI) for isolated SPI and digital I/O in battery management systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX14930AAWE+ datasheet, MAX14930AAWE+ pinout, MAX14930AAWE+ application, or MAX14930AAWE+ equivalent, this page provides verified electrical specs, safety-certified isolation ratings, supply-voltage flexibility, thermal derating curves, and real-world design context for high-reliability industrial and medical isolation interfaces.
Technical Context
The MAX14930AAWE+ implements capacitive isolation using Analog Devices' proprietary process, enabling signal transfer across galvanically separated domains without magnetic coupling or optoelectronic elements. Its four independent unidirectional channels support asymmetric voltage operation (e.g., 1.8V logic side / 3.3V system side) and include enable-controlled three-state outputs.
It features integrated undervoltage lockout (1.45V–1.71V threshold with 50mV hysteresis), low-glitch propagation (≤32ns rejection), and precise timing control: typical tPLH/tPHL of 54.1ns/55.3ns at 5V, pulse-width distortion <4.5ns, and channel-to-channel skew ≤6.7ns - all guaranteed over full temperature range.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 2.75kVRMS withstand (60s), 443VRMS continuous working voltage - meets UL1577, VDE 0884-11 Basic Insulation |
| Data Rate | 1Mbps maximum - suitable for low-speed isolated control, status monitoring, and legacy bus interfaces |
| Supply Range | 1.71V to 5.5V per side - enables level translation between mixed-voltage subsystems (e.g., 1.8V MCU ↔ 5V sensor) |
| Propagation Delay | 38.2–58.4ns (tPLH), 38.6–60.2ns (tPHL) - deterministic latency critical for synchronous digital handshaking |
| CMTI | 25kV/µs - ensures reliable operation in noisy motor drives and power converters with fast dv/dt transients |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC, and medical equipment environments |
| Output Default | Low state when input unpowered - prevents floating outputs during power sequencing or fault conditions |
Pinout & Package
MAX14930AAWE+ uses a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (10.3mm × 7.5mm, outline 21-0042), rated for 8mm creepage and clearance. Thermal resistance θJA = 71°C/W (four-layer board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INA1–INA4 | Primary-side digital inputs | Accept CMOS/TTL logic; VIH = 0.7×VDDA, VIL ≤ 0.8V - compatible with 1.8V–5.5V controllers |
| OUTB1–OUTB4 | Secondary-side isolated outputs | Push-pull drivers; VOH = VDDB − 0.4V, VOL = 0.4V @ 4mA - drive standard logic loads directly |
| ENA | Primary-side output enable | Active-high; enables/disables OUTA outputs - used for bus arbitration or power-gated isolation |
| ENB | Secondary-side output enable | Active-high; enables/disables OUTB outputs - supports bidirectional control signaling across isolation barrier |
| VDDA / GNDA | Primary-side power/ground | Independent 1.71–5.5V domain - decouples logic-side supply from isolated side |
| VDDB / GNDB | Secondary-side power/ground | Independent 1.71–5.5V domain - enables true level-shifting and fault containment |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Galvanic Isolation Barrier | 2.75kVRMS rating with 630VPK repetitive peak voltage - certified to UL, VDE, and IEC 60950-1 for functional safety |
| Low-Power Operation | 1.2–1.9mA per side at 500kHz (1.8V–5V), scalable with data rate - reduces thermal load in dense PCB layouts |
| High Noise Immunity | 25kV/µs common-mode transient immunity - maintains signal integrity in EMI-heavy environments like motor drives |
| Configurable Output State | Default-low behavior on input loss - eliminates undefined states during brown-out or reset sequences |
| Wide Supply Flexibility | 1.71V–5.5V operation on both sides - supports direct interfacing with ultra-low-power MCUs and legacy 5V peripherals |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO6741QDWR | 4-channel, 5000VRMS, 50Mbps, 16-pin SOIC - higher isolation and speed but no default-low option | Targeted at high-speed industrial Ethernet gateways and servo drives requiring >10Mbps throughput | Select ISO6741QDWR only if 50Mbps and 5kVRMS are mandatory; MAX14930AAWE+ offers better cost/performance for ≤1Mbps legacy interfaces |
| ADUM1401ARWZ | 4-channel, 2500VRMS, 1Mbps, wide SOIC - same speed and package, but default-high output and lower CMTI (25kV/µs vs. 25kV/µs) | Used in general-purpose isolated I/O where output polarity during power loss is non-critical | Choose ADUM1401ARWZ if default-high behavior aligns with system reset logic; otherwise MAX14930AAWE+ provides safer default-low fail-safe state |
Compared with ISO6741QDWR and ADUM1401ARWZ, MAX14930AAWE+ uniquely combines 2.75kVRMS isolation, 1Mbps capability, default-low outputs, and −40°C to +125°C operation in a single wide-SOIC solution - making it optimal for cost-sensitive, thermally demanding, fail-safe industrial and BMS designs.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the MAX14930AAWE+?
The MAX14930AAWE+ is rated for 2.75kVRMS withstand voltage (60 seconds), 443VRMS continuous working voltage (VIOWM), and 630VPK repetitive peak voltage (VIORM). It is certified to UL1577, VDE 0884-11 (Basic Insulation), and IEC 60950-1 - making it suitable for reinforced insulation applications in industrial and medical systems.
Does the MAX14930AAWE+ support different supply voltages on each side?
Yes, the MAX14930AAWE+ supports independent 1.71V to 5.5V supplies on both the primary (VDDA/GNDA) and secondary (VDDB/GNDB) sides. This enables true level translation - for example, interfacing a 1.8V FPGA I/O bank with a 5V isolated sensor interface - without external level shifters.
What is the meaning of "default-low" in the MAX14930AAWE+ part number suffix?
The "A" in MAX14930AAWE+ denotes default-low output behavior: when any input (INA1–INA4) is unpowered or floating, the corresponding OUTB output drives low. This fail-safe state prevents undefined logic levels during power sequencing, brownouts, or cable disconnects - critical in safety-critical BMS and medical applications.
How does the MAX14930AAWE+ compare to the MAX14930AWWE+?
The MAX14930AAWE+ (default-low) and MAX14930AWWE+ (default-high) share identical isolation ratings, timing specs, and package. The sole difference is output behavior during input loss: AAWE+ pulls OUTB low, AWWE+ pulls OUTB high. Selection depends on system-level fail-safe requirements - e.g., low = disable actuator, high = enable alarm.
Is the MAX14930AAWE+ suitable for use in medical equipment?
Yes, the MAX14930AAWE+ meets IEC 60601-1 (ed.3) requirements for basic insulation (1 MOOP, 443VRMS working voltage) and is certified by TÜV for medical applications. Its −40°C to +125°C operation, 25kV/µs CMTI, and safety-limited power dissipation make it appropriate for isolated patient monitoring front-ends and diagnostic equipment.
