ISL71610M
Radiation Tolerant Passive-Input Digital Isolator
The ISL71610M is a passive-input digital signal isolator with a CMOS output. It has a similar interface but with better performance and higher package density than optocouplers.
The ISL71610M is manufactured with Giant Magnetoresistive (GMR) technology for small size, high speed, and low power. A ceramic/polymer composite barrier provides excellent isolation and an unlimited barrier life. A series external resistor sets the input coil current and a capacitor in parallel with the current-limiting resistor provides improved dynamic performance. This versatile component can be used to replace a variety of optocouplers, functioning over a wide range of data rates, edge speeds, and power supply levels.
