Product details
Overview
MAX14930AAWE+T from Analog Devices is a 4-channel, unidirectional digital isolator with 2.75kVRMS galvanic isolation, 1Mbps data rate, and default-low output configuration in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (10.3mm × 7.5mm). It operates across ±40°C to +125°C ambient, supports independent 1.71V–5.5V supplies on both sides, and delivers robust common-mode transient immunity of 25kV/µs for industrial fieldbus and isolated SPI/RS-232 interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MAX14930AAWE+T datasheet, MAX14930AAWE+T pinout, MAX14930AAWE+T application, or MAX14930AAWE+T equivalent, this device is selected for high-reliability multichannel isolation where safety-rated working voltage (443VRMS), low power at 1Mbps (1.2–1.9mA per side), and UL/VDE-certified basic insulation are critical design requirements.
Technical Context
The MAX14930AAWE+T implements capacitive isolation using Maxim's proprietary process, enabling signal transfer between circuits with separate power domains while maintaining reinforced insulation integrity. Its unidirectional channel architecture-two channels A→B and two B→A-supports asymmetric protocols like SPI master/slave or RS-232 transceiver isolation without bidirectional contention.
It features integrated undervoltage lockout (1.45–1.71V threshold) on both sides, input hysteresis (410mV), and guaranteed operation up to +125°C ambient. The device is production-tested at full temperature range and qualified to withstand 2.75kVRMS for 60 seconds per UL1577 and DIN VDE V 0884-11:2017-01 for basic insulation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 2.75kVRMS withstand (60s), 443VRMS continuous working voltage - meets IEC 61010-1 and IEC 60601-1 safety requirements for medical and industrial equipment. |
| Data Rate | 1Mbps maximum - suitable for low-speed control signaling, isolated GPIO, and legacy serial interfaces without timing margin risk. |
| Supply Voltage Range | 1.71V to 5.5V on both sides - enables direct interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers and 5V legacy peripherals as a level translator. |
| Propagation Delay | 38.2–58.4ns (typical) - ensures deterministic timing for real-time control loops and synchronized sensor acquisition. |
| Common-Mode Transient Immunity | 25kV/µs - suppresses noise coupling in motor drives, PLC backplanes, and high-noise factory environments. |
| Power Consumption | 1.2–1.9mA per side at 500kHz - enables low-power operation in battery-backed or energy-constrained isolated subsystems. |
| Operating Temperature | −40°C to +125°C ambient - certified for under-hood automotive, industrial automation, and downhole instrumentation. |
Pinout & Package
Package: 16-pin wide-body SOIC (10.3mm × 7.5mm), RoHS-compliant, creepage/clearance ≥8mm, thermal resistance θJA = 71°C/W (four-layer board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|

Applications
| Industrial Fieldbus Isolation | Isolated SPI Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating Modbus RTU or Profibus DP nodes in factory automation cabinets exposed to 48V DC bus noise and ESD events. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Unidirectional 4-channel isolator separating controller-side logic (side A) from field-side transceivers (side B), with ENB enabling dynamic bus arbitration. Use Value: Prevents ground-loop-induced communication errors and protects controller from 10kV surge per IEC 61000-4-5. |
Use Scenario: Isolating an MCU's SPI interface from an isolated ADC or DAC in a precision measurement system. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Two channels isolate MOSI/MISO (A→B and B→A), one isolates SCLK (A→B), one isolates CS (A→B); all operate at ≤1Mbps with <58.4ns propagation delay. Use Value: Maintains signal integrity and timing alignment across isolation barrier while meeting 443VRMS working voltage for Class I medical devices. |
| RS-232 Transceiver Isolation | Battery Management System (BMS) Monitoring |
|
Use Scenario: Adding galvanic isolation to legacy RS-232 ports in test equipment or human-machine interfaces. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Four unidirectional channels isolate TxD/RxD (A→B), RTS/CTS (B→A) with independent enable control per side. Use Value: Enables safe connection to non-isolated PCs or modems while sustaining 2.75kVRMS isolation and 25kV/µs CMTI in noisy lab environments. |
Use Scenario: Isolating cell voltage and temperature monitoring signals from high-voltage battery packs (e.g., 400–800V EV traction batteries). IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Transfers analog front-end digitized data (via isolated SPI) and status flags across 443VRMS working voltage barrier; default-low outputs prevent false fault asserts during power sequencing. Use Value: Meets IEC 60601-1 MOOP requirements and prevents high-voltage transients from propagating to low-voltage MCU domain. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX14930AWA+T | Same 2.75kVRMS isolation and 1Mbps rating, but default-high output configuration instead of default-low. | Suitable where active-high reset or enable signals dominate the system logic; requires validation of startup behavior in floating-input scenarios. | Select MAX14930AWA+T only if system-level timing analysis confirms no metastability or unintended assertion during power ramp. |
| ISO6741QDR | Texas Instruments' 4-channel isolator with 5000VRMS VISO, 1Mbps, default-low, but rated only to +105°C ambient and lacks VDE 0884-11 certification. | Applicable in commercial-grade industrial controls where extended temperature and full VDE compliance are not mandated. | Choose ISO6741QDR only for cost-sensitive designs with relaxed safety certification and temperature requirements. |
Compared with MAX14930AAWE+T, MAX14930AWA+T changes only the power-on output state-critical for fail-safe logic-but retains identical isolation, timing, and thermal specs; ISO6741QDR trades VDE certification and +125°C operation for lower cost and higher VISO, limiting use in medical or extended-temperature deployments.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the MAX14930AAWE+T?
The MAX14930AAWE+T is rated for 2.75kVRMS withstand voltage for 60 seconds (VISO), 443VRMS maximum working voltage (VIOWM), and 630VPK repetitive peak voltage (VIORM). These values are certified per UL1577 and DIN VDE V 0884-11:2017-01 for basic insulation, making MAX14930AAWE+T suitable for applications requiring reinforced isolation barriers in industrial and medical equipment.
Does the MAX14930AAWE+T support bidirectional communication?
No, the MAX14930AAWE+T is a unidirectional digital isolator. Its channel configuration is fixed: two channels transmit from side A to side B (INAx → OUTBx), and two channels transmit from side B to side A (INBx → OUTAx). For true bidirectional protocols like I²C, Analog Devices recommends the MAX14933 series instead of MAX14930AAWE+T.
What is the meaning of "AA" in the MAX14930AAWE+T part number?
The "AA" suffix in MAX14930AAWE+T denotes the specific variant: "A" indicates 1Mbps data rate, and the second "A" specifies default-low output state (outputs go low when inputs are unpowered or floating). This distinguishes it from variants like MAX14930ABWE+T (25Mbps, default-low) or MAX14930AWA+T (1Mbps, default-high).
Can the MAX14930AAWE+T operate with different supply voltages on each side?
Yes, the MAX14930AAWE+T supports independent supply rails: VDDA (1.71V–5.5V, referenced to GNDA) and VDDB (1.71V–5.5V, referenced to GNDB). This enables level translation-for example, interfacing a 1.8V FPGA on side A with a 5V RS-232 transceiver on side B-without external level shifters, a key capability confirmed in the MAX14930AAWE+T datasheet.
Is the MAX14930AAWE+T qualified for automotive applications?
The MAX14930AAWE+T is not AEC-Q100 qualified and is specified for industrial temperature range (−40°C to +125°C), not automotive. While its operating temperature range overlaps with some automotive sub-systems, Analog Devices does not certify MAX14930AAWE+T for under-hood or safety-critical ADAS applications. For automotive use, consult Analog Devices' automotive-qualified isolator portfolio instead of MAX14930AAWE+T.
