Product details
Overview
MAX14932EAWE+ 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 between isolated power domains at up to +125°C ambient. It delivers 150Mbps data rate, 25kV/µs common-mode transient immunity, and operates with independent 1.71V–5.5V supplies on each side-enabling use as a level translator in industrial SPI and RS-485 isolation.
For engineers reviewing the MAX14932EAWE+ datasheet, MAX14932EAWE+ pinout, MAX14932EAWE+ application, or MAX14932EAWE+ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning for key specs, validated pin functions, application-specific implementation value, and two confirmed alternative parts with documented functional and packaging differences.
Technical Context
The MAX14932EAWE+ implements capacitive isolation with proprietary process technology, providing reinforced insulation rated for 2.75kVRMS withstand (60s), 443VRMS continuous working voltage (VIOWM), and 630VPK repetitive peak voltage (VIORM). Its architecture supports three unidirectional channel configurations-ideal for SPI master/slave, isolated digital I/O, and multi-drop bus interfaces.
It features dual enable inputs (ENA/ENB), default-low output state, and robust noise rejection: 25kV/µs CMTI, 6.67ns minimum pulse width, and <1ps typical pulse-width distortion at 150Mbps. Propagation delay skew is ≤0.9ns (channel-to-channel, same direction) and ≤7.1ns (part-to-part) under 5V operation.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating | 2.75kVRMS for 60s - meets reinforced insulation requirements for industrial safety standards including UL1577 and VDE 0884-11. |
| Data Rate | 150Mbps - enables high-speed serial communication in isolated ADC interfaces and real-time control loops without timing bottlenecks. |
| CMTI | 25kV/µs - ensures reliable operation in noisy motor drive or power converter environments where fast transients cross isolation barriers. |
| Supply Range | 1.71V to 5.5V per side - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V FPGAs, 3.3V microcontrollers, and 5V legacy peripherals without external level shifters. |
| Propagation Delay Skew | ≤0.9ns (same-direction channels) - preserves timing integrity across parallel data paths in isolated sensor arrays or multi-bit DAC interfaces. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive, industrial PLC backplanes, and battery management systems with extended thermal margins. |
| Package | 16-pin wide-body SOIC (10.3mm × 7.5mm, 8mm creepage/clearance) - supports IPC-2221 Class B spacing for 300V working voltage applications. |
Pinout & Package
MAX14932EAWE+ uses a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (outline 21-0042, RoHS-compliant, 8mm creepage/clearance), optimized for high-voltage isolation integrity and thermal dissipation (θJA = 71°C/W on 4-layer board).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| INA1–INA4 | Primary-side input channels | Accept logic signals referenced to GNDA; support 1.71V–5.5V CMOS/LVTTL levels with 410mV hysteresis for noise immunity. |
| OUTB1–OUTB4 | Secondary-side output channels | Drive loads up to 4mA with rail-to-rail swing (VDDA−0.4V / 0.4V) referenced to GNDB; default-low state when input unpowered. |
| ENA, ENB | Channel enable controls | Active-high enables respective side's outputs; enables low-power tri-state mode (tTRI ≤11.7ns) for bus sharing or hot-swap isolation. |
| VDDA, VDDB | Independent power supplies | Allow asymmetric voltage operation (e.g., 1.8V logic side / 5V analog side); undervoltage lockout (1.58V typ.) prevents metastability. |
| GNDA, GNDB | Isolated ground references | Must be kept physically and electrically separated; barrier capacitance is only 2pF, minimizing high-frequency coupling across isolation boundary. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| 150Mbps data rate with <1ns PWD | Enables precise timing-critical isolation in high-resolution encoder feedback or gigabit-capable industrial Ethernet PHY interfaces. |
| 25kV/µs CMTI | Prevents data corruption during fast-switching events in inverters, servo drives, and HVDC protection circuits without added filtering. |
| 1.71V–5.5V dual-supply flexibility | Eliminates need for external level translators when connecting mixed-voltage subsystems (e.g., 1.8V FPGA to 3.3V ADC or 5V actuator driver). |
| Default-low output state | Ensures safe, known state during power-up/power-down sequences in fail-safe control systems like emergency stop circuits or valve drivers. |
| UL/VDE/IEC-certified 2.75kVRMS isolation | Meets reinforced insulation requirements for medical (IEC 60601-1), industrial (IEC 61010-1), and energy (IEC 62109) safety standards out-of-the-box. |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar digital isolator applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO7841DWR | 4-channel, 5000VRMS reinforced isolation; 100Mbps max data rate; SOIC-16 narrow body (9.9mm × 3.9mm) | Higher isolation rating but lower speed; narrower package reduces creepage to 4mm - unsuitable for 300V working voltage designs requiring 8mm spacing. | Select ISO7841DWR only when 5kVRMS rating is mandatory and 100Mbps suffices; verify layout clearance against IEC 61010-1 creepage tables. |
| ADUM2402ARWZ | 4-channel, 2500VRMS isolation; 1Mbps max data rate; SOIC-16 wide body (10.3mm × 7.5mm) | Legacy magnetic isolation; orders-of-magnitude lower speed and CMTI (25kV/µs vs. ADuM2402's 25kV/µs - same spec but higher jitter); no 1.8V support. | Choose ADUM2402ARWZ only for cost-sensitive, low-speed legacy upgrades where 150Mbps and 1.71V operation are unnecessary. |
Compared with MAX14932EAWE+, ISO7841DWR trades speed for higher isolation voltage and smaller footprint, while ADUM2402ARWZ offers pin-compatible legacy compatibility at the expense of bandwidth, power efficiency, and low-voltage operation - making MAX14932EAWE+ optimal for new high-speed, mixed-voltage industrial designs.

FAQ
What is the maximum data rate supported by MAX14932EAWE+?
The MAX14932EAWE+ supports a maximum data rate of 150Mbps, verified across its full operating voltage range (1.71V–5.5V) and temperature range (−40°C to +125°C). This performance is enabled by low-propagation-delay architecture (5.1ns tPLH typical at 5V) and sub-nanosecond channel-to-channel skew, making MAX14932EAWE+ suitable for high-speed serial interfaces such as isolated SPI clock/data lines and real-time control links.
Does MAX14932EAWE+ support 1.8V logic levels on both sides?
Yes, MAX14932EAWE+ fully supports 1.8V operation on both VDDA and VDDB supplies, with guaranteed functionality down to 1.71V. Input thresholds scale with supply (VIH = 0.7×VDD), and output drive capability remains intact at 1.8V (VOH = VDD−0.4V, VOL = 0.4V). This makes MAX14932EAWE+ ideal for interfacing modern ultra-low-voltage FPGAs or microcontrollers with higher-voltage subsystems without external level translation.
What safety certifications does MAX14932EAWE+ hold?
MAX14932EAWE+ is certified to UL1577 (3750VRMS), CSA C22.2 No. 5A (cUL), and VDE 0884-11:2017 (Basic Insulation, 4600VPK transient, 630VPK repetitive peak). It also meets IEC 61000-4-5 surge immunity (±10kV) and IEC 60601-1 (3rd ed.) requirements for medical MOOP applications. These certifications are production-tested and documented in file E351759 (UL/cUL) and 5015017-4880-0001 (VDE).
How does the default-low output configuration of MAX14932EAWE+ improve system safety?
The default-low output state of MAX14932EAWE+ ensures that all four OUTB outputs drive low when their corresponding INA inputs are unpowered or floating - a critical fail-safe behavior in control applications like motor enable/disable, solenoid activation, or emergency shutdown circuits. This eliminates risk of undefined states during power sequencing, brownouts, or cable disconnects, directly enhancing functional safety in industrial and medical systems using MAX14932EAWE+.
Can MAX14932EAWE+ replace older optocoupler-based isolation solutions?
Yes, MAX14932EAWE+ is a drop-in replacement for quad optocouplers in many applications - offering superior speed (150Mbps vs. typically <10Mbps), lower power (e.g., 10.5mA at 1.8V/100Mbps vs. >20mA per channel for optos), longer lifetime (no LED degradation), and tighter timing specs (sub-ns skew vs. µs-level variation). However, MAX14932EAWE+ requires careful PCB layout for creepage/clearance compliance, unlike through-hole optocouplers with built-in spacing.
