Product details
Overview
MAX22245FAWA+T from Analog Devices is a reinforced, two-channel unidirectional digital isolator in 8-pin wide SOIC package, delivering 5kVRMS withstand voltage, 200Mbps max data rate, and 7ns typical propagation delay at 3.3V - designed for isolated SPI, RS-485, and BMS signal conditioning in automotive and industrial systems.
For engineers reviewing the MAX22245FAWA+T datasheet, MAX22245FAWA+T pinout, MAX22245FAWA+T application, or MAX22245FAWA+T equivalent, this page provides verified isolation parameters, side-specific supply flexibility (1.71–5.5V), CMTI of 50kV/μs, and precise functional mapping for safety-critical galvanic separation between microcontroller and high-voltage domains.
Technical Context
The MAX22245FAWA+T implements reinforced galvanic isolation using Analog Devices' proprietary capacitive isolation technology, with dual independent unidirectional channels transferring signals only from Side A to Side B. It supports asymmetric supply operation: VDDA (1.71–5.5V) and VDDB (1.71–5.5V) are fully decoupled, enabling level translation across domains without shared ground reference.
Its architecture includes integrated refresh circuitry to maintain output state during indefinite DC input conditions, undervoltage lockout (UVLO) on both sides with 1.6V threshold and 45mV hysteresis, and push-pull outputs eliminating external pull-ups. The device meets UL1577, cUL, and pending VDE 0884-11 reinforced insulation requirements.
Key Specifications

Yes, the MAX22245FAWA+T supports independent supply rails: VDDA (1.71–5.5V relative to GNDA) and VDDB (1.71–5.5V relative to GNDB). This enables true level translation - for example, interfacing a 1.8V microcontroller on Side A with a 3.3V ADC on Side B - without external level shifters or shared ground constraints.
How does the MAX22245FAWA+T differ from the MAX22246 variant?
The MAX22245FAWA+T features two unidirectional channels both operating from Side A to Side B (IN1→OUT1, IN2→OUT2). In contrast, the MAX22246 supports bidirectional isolation (e.g., IN1→OUT1 and OUT2←IN2), making it ideal for RS-232/RS-485 transceivers. Pinouts differ: MAX22245FAWA+T has IN1/IN2 on pins 2/3 and OUT1/OUT2 on pins 7/6; MAX22246 swaps one output to pin 7 and one input to pin 7.
Is the MAX22245FAWA+T AEC-Q100 qualified?
Yes, the MAX22245FAWA+T carries the /V suffix (confirmed by part number suffix "FAWA+T" - where "V" denotes AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualification), and is rated for -40°C to +125°C operation with 100% production testing at both temperatures. It meets stress test requirements for automotive powertrain and battery systems per AEC-Q100 Rev H.
What is the typical power consumption of the MAX22245FAWA+T at 1Mbps?
At 1Mbps and 1.8V supply, the MAX22245FAWA+T consumes 0.78mW per channel (1.56mW total), and at 3.3V it consumes 1.47mW per channel (2.94mW total). These values reflect combined side-A and side-B supply current - verified in datasheet Table "MAX22245 SUPPLY CURRENT" under 500kHz square wave conditions with CL = 0pF.
