Product details
Overview
MAX22245FAWA/V+T from Analog Devices is a reinforced, fast, low-power, two-channel digital isolator with unidirectional signal flow across galvanically isolated domains. It delivers 200Mbps maximum data rate, 7ns typical propagation delay at 3.3V, and 50kV/μs common-mode transient immunity (CMTI), enabling robust isolation in automotive battery management systems (BMS) and high-noise motor drive interfaces.
For engineers reviewing the MAX22245FAWA/V+T datasheet, MAX22245FAWA/V+T pinout, MAX22245FAWA/V+T application, or MAX22245FAWA/V+T equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, exact pin functions, real-world application mappings, and validated alternative options for AEC-Q100-compliant isolated communication design.
Technical Context
The MAX22245FAWA/V+T implements two independent unidirectional isolation channels using Analog Devices' proprietary capacitive isolation technology. It features reinforced insulation rated to 5kVRMS for 60s (VISO), 848VRMS continuous working voltage (VIOWM), and ±12.8kV surge withstand between GNDA and GNDB.
Each side supports independent 1.71V–5.5V supplies (VDDA/GNDA and VDDB/GNDB), enabling level translation alongside isolation. The device includes undervoltage lockout (1.6V threshold) and refresh circuitry to maintain output accuracy during static input conditions.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Rating (VISO) | 5000VRMS for 60s - meets reinforced insulation requirements per IEC 60747-5-5 and UL1577. |
| Max Data Rate | 200Mbps - supports high-speed SPI, CAN FD, and isolated ADC interface timing budgets. |
| Propagation Delay | 7ns typ at VDD = 3.3V - enables sub-10ns loop timing in closed-loop motor control feedback paths. |
| CMTI | 50kV/μs typ - prevents false triggering in high-dV/dt environments like IGBT gate drivers and inverters. |
| Supply Range | 1.71V–5.5V per side - allows direct interfacing with 1.8V microcontrollers and 3.3V/5V peripherals without external level shifters. |
| Power @ 1Mbps | 0.78mW/channel at 1.8V - reduces thermal load in compact automotive ECUs and enables battery-powered isolated sensors. |
| Operating Temp | −40°C to +125°C - qualified for under-hood automotive use and industrial motor drives. |
Pinout & Package
MAX22245FAWA/V+T is housed in an 8-pin wide-body SOIC package (W8MS+7) with 8mm creepage and clearance, RoHS-compliant, and rated for reinforced insulation.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 - VDDA | Side A power supply input | Bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GNDA; sets logic-high level on input side (1.71–5.5V). |
| 2 - IN1 | Logic input channel 1 (Side A) | Accepts CMOS/TTL signals; drives isolated output OUT1 on Side B. |
| 3 - IN2 | Logic input channel 2 (Side A) | Independent second input; drives isolated output OUT2 on Side B. |
| 4 - GNDA | Side A ground reference | Must be isolated from GNDB; forms primary-side return path for VDDA and inputs. |
| 5 - GNDB | Side B ground reference | Must be isolated from GNDA; forms secondary-side return path for VDDB and outputs. |
| 6 - OUT2 | Logic output channel 2 (Side B) | Push-pull driver; no external pull-up required; referenced to VDDB/GNDB. |
| 7 - OUT1 | Logic output channel 1 (Side B) | Push-pull driver; matches IN1 direction; compatible with 1.8V–5.5V logic loads. |
| 8 - VDDB | Side B power supply input | Bypass with 0.1µF ceramic capacitor to GNDB; sets logic-high level on output side (1.71–5.5V). |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualification | Validated for automotive operation from −40°C to +125°C ambient, including temperature cycling and HAST testing. |
| Reinforced galvanic isolation | Meets VDE 0884-11 (pending) and UL1577 standards; eliminates need for dual basic isolation components in safety-critical BMS designs. |
| Low-power operation | 0.78mW/channel at 1Mbps/1.8V - cuts system-level dissipation by >40% vs. legacy optocouplers in always-on monitoring circuits. |
| High CMTI (50kV/μs) | Prevents data corruption in 1000V/μs switching transients common in SiC-based inverters and fast-switching DC-DC converters. |
| Independent dual-supply architecture | VDDA and VDDB operate independently - enables seamless 1.8V MCU-to-5V sensor or actuator interfacing without external level translators. |

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the MAX22245FAWA/V+T?
The MAX22245FAWA/V+T has a reinforced isolation rating of 5000VRMS for 60 seconds (VISO), 848VRMS maximum working voltage (VIOWM), and 8000VPK surge withstand per IEC 60065. These values are certified per UL1577 and pending VDE 0884-11, making MAX22245FAWA/V+T suitable for primary-side isolation in automotive BMS and industrial inverters.
Does the MAX22245FAWA/V+T support different supply voltages on each side?
Yes, the MAX22245FAWA/V+T supports independent 1.71V–5.5V supplies on Side A (VDDA/GNDA) and Side B (VDDB/GNDB). This enables level translation-for example, interfacing a 1.8V microcontroller on Side A with a 3.3V or 5V peripheral on Side B-without external level shifters, and is fully specified across the entire voltage range in the MAX22245FAWA/V+T datasheet.
How does the MAX22245FAWA/V+T differ from the MAX22246FAWA/V+T?
The MAX22245FAWA/V+T features two unidirectional channels both transmitting from Side A to Side B (IN1→OUT1, IN2→OUT2), while the MAX22246FAWA/V+T has opposite-direction channels (IN1→OUT2, IN2→OUT1), making it ideal for bidirectional protocols like RS-232 or RS-485. Pinouts differ: MAX22245FAWA/V+T uses pins 2/3 as IN1/IN2 and 6/7 as OUT2/OUT1; MAX22246FAWA/V+T swaps IN1/OUT1 and IN2/OUT2 assignments.
Is the MAX22245FAWA/V+T qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, the /V suffix in MAX22245FAWA/V+T indicates AEC-Q100 Grade 0 qualification (−40°C to +125°C ambient), including stress testing for temperature cycling, humidity, and mechanical shock. It is approved for use in automotive battery management systems, onboard chargers, and traction inverter control units where reinforced isolation and long-term reliability are mandatory.
What is the default output state of the MAX22245FAWA/V+T during undervoltage lockout?
During undervoltage lockout (VDDA or VDDB < 1.6V), the MAX22245FAWA/V+T outputs enter their default state: high for the C/F variants (including MAX22245FAWA/V+T). This behavior is guaranteed per Table 2 in the MAX22245FAWA/V+T datasheet and ensures fail-safe signaling in power-loss scenarios such as BMS cell monitoring interruptions.
