Product details
Overview
MAX14932AAWE+ from Analog Devices is a 4-channel, unidirectional digital isolator with 2.75kVRMS galvanic isolation, 150Mbps maximum data rate, and independent 1.71V–5.5V dual-supply operation. It features default-low output configuration, 6.67ns minimum pulse width, and operates across –40°C to +125°C for industrial fieldbus and isolated SPI/RS-485 interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MAX14932AAWE+ datasheet, MAX14932AAWE+ pinout, MAX14932AAWE+ application, or MAX14932AAWE+ equivalent, this device delivers high-speed, robust isolation for multichannel signal transfer between domains with differing ground potentials and supply voltages in harsh environments.
Technical Context
The MAX14932AAWE+ implements capacitive isolation using Analog Devices' proprietary silicon-dioxide barrier technology, supporting asymmetric voltage operation (e.g., 1.8V on side A, 3.3V on side B) and enabling level translation. Its unidirectional channel architecture-two channels A→B and two B→A-supports full-duplex SPI isolation without bidirectional logic overhead.
It integrates enable-controlled three-state outputs (tEN = 5.1ns typ at 5V, tTRI = 2.7ns typ), low propagation delay skew (<1.6ns channel-to-channel same-direction), and 25kV/µs common-mode transient immunity. The device meets VDE 0884-11 Basic Insulation with 630VPK repetitive peak voltage and 4600VPK transient isolation rating.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 2.75kVRMS withstand (60s), 443VRMS continuous working voltage - enables safe operation in industrial mains-referenced systems |
| Max Data Rate | 150Mbps - supports high-speed serial protocols including fast SPI and isolated digital I/O |
| Propagation Delay | 5.1ns (tPLH) / 4.9ns (tPHL) typ at 5V - ensures tight timing alignment for synchronous interfaces |
| Supply Range | 1.71V–5.5V per side - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers and 5V peripherals |
| Operating Temp | –40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, motor drives, and industrial PLC environments |
| CMTI | 25kV/µs - rejects fast transients from switching power supplies and motor drives without data corruption |
| Default Output State | Low - prevents floating or unintended activation during power-up or input loss |
Pinout & Package
MAX14932AAWE+ is housed in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (10.3mm × 7.5mm, 8mm creepage/clearance), RoHS-compliant, with exposed pad not connected. Pin functions are validated per Analog Devices' functional diagram and absolute maximum ratings table.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDDA / GNDA | Side A power and ground | Supplies and references all A-side inputs (INA1–INA2, ENA); enables independent voltage domain operation |
| VDDB / GNDB | Side B power and ground | Supplies and references all B-side outputs (OUTB1–OUTB4, ENB); isolates B-side logic from A-side noise |
| INA1, INA2 | A-side input signals | Drive isolated signals from controller side to peripheral side (A→B direction) |
| INB1, INB2 | B-side input signals | Drive return-path signals from peripheral side to controller side (B→A direction) |
| OUTA1, OUTA2 | A-side outputs | Deliver isolated B→A signals to controller; three-state when ENA = low |
| OUTB1–OUTB4 | B-side outputs | Deliver isolated A→B signals to peripherals; three-state when ENB = low |
| ENA, ENB | Output enable controls | Independent gating of A- and B-side outputs; critical for bus arbitration and power sequencing |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| SI8642ED-B-IS | 4-channel, 2.5kVRMS, 150Mbps, default-high outputs, 16-pin narrow SOIC (4mm creepage) | Lacks 8mm creepage; lower VIOWM (350VRMS); no default-low option | Select when board space is constrained and default-high behavior aligns with system reset logic |
| ADUM4402ARWZ | 4-channel, 5kVRMS, 1Mbps max data rate, 16-pin wide SOIC, default-high outputs | Lower speed limits use in high-bandwidth SPI; higher isolation suits mains-connected equipment | Select when ultra-high isolation (5kVRMS) is mandatory and data rate ≤1Mbps suffices |
Compared with SI8642ED-B-IS and ADUM4402ARWZ, the MAX14932AAWE+ uniquely combines 150Mbps speed, 2.75kVRMS isolation, default-low outputs, and 8mm creepage in a single wide-SOIC package - making it optimal for space-tolerant, high-speed industrial and medical designs requiring fail-safe output states.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the MAX14932AAWE+?
The MAX14932AAWE+ is rated for 2.75kVRMS withstand voltage for 60 seconds (VISO), 443VRMS continuous working voltage (VIOWM), and 630VPK repetitive peak voltage (VIORM). It is certified to UL1577, CSA C22.2 No. 5A, and VDE 0884-11 Basic Insulation standards - confirming suitability for industrial and medical applications requiring reinforced isolation barriers.
Does the MAX14932AAWE+ support different supply voltages on each side?
Yes, the MAX14932AAWE+ supports independent 1.71V to 5.5V supplies on side A (VDDA/GNDA) and side B (VDDB/GNDB). This enables direct interfacing between disparate logic families - for example, a 1.8V FPGA on side A driving a 5V RS-485 transceiver on side B - without external level translators or voltage regulators.
What is the meaning of "AA" and "WE+" in MAX14932AAWE+?
In MAX14932AAWE+, "AA" denotes the 150Mbps speed grade and default-low output configuration; "WE+" indicates the 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (10.3mm × 7.5mm) with lead-free, RoHS-compliant finish. This exact suffix maps to the device's isolation rating (2.75kVRMS), channel direction (2× A→B, 2× B→A), and thermal performance (θJA = 71°C/W).
Can the MAX14932AAWE+ be used for isolated I²C communication?
No, the MAX14932AAWE+ is unidirectional only and does not support bidirectional I²C signaling. For I²C isolation, Analog Devices recommends the MAX14933 - a dedicated bidirectional 4-channel isolator in the same family. Using MAX14932AAWE+ for I²C would require external logic to emulate open-drain behavior and violates its specified channel architecture.
What safety certifications does the MAX14932AAWE+ hold?
The MAX14932AAWE+ holds UL1577 (E351759), CSA C22.2 No. 5A, VDE 0884-11 (Basic Insulation), and TÜV-certified compliance to IEC 61010-1 and IEC 60601-1. It achieves 1 MOOP, 630VPK working voltage, and passes partial discharge testing at 1182VP - validating its use in safety-critical industrial and patient-connected medical systems.
