ISO3080DWR Isolators

Digital Isolators are a type of helpful system used to protect sensitive instruments and controls from fault current in process control and automation systems. The ISO3080DWR is a digital output surface mount isolator. It is a single-channel isolator which are designed to provide galvanic isolation between the power control circuit and the output load. This makes them an excellent choice for protecting systems from shock, vibration and electromagnetic interference.

The ISO3080DWR isolator is an integrated device, using an inductor circuit to provide a high degree of isolation between both the input and output channels of the isolator. This is in contrast to traditional opto-couplers which use opto-coupling elements to provide electrical isolation between the control circuit and the device under control. The ISO3080DWR isolator has a very fast device response time of 5μs, making it ideal for applications requiring very fast response times.

The ISO3080DWR isolator also features a wide input voltage range of 3V to 32V, making it suitable for applications in industrial environments with different power requirements. The ISO3080DWR isolator has a high isolation voltage of 5000Vrms, providing the user with a reliable safety net against high voltages. This is an important feature when dealing with dangerous voltages which could cause damage to the control system or the device under control.

The ISO3080DWR isolator also has very low power consumption, featuring a typical standby current of 400uA and a maximum load current of up to 100mA. This makes it an excellent choice for applications where power saving is a priority, such as solar and renewable energy systems, battery powered devices and automation applications with low power requirements.

The ISO3080DWR isolator has a wide operational temperature range of -40°C to +125°C, making it suitable for applications in harsh environments such as those found in automotive, aerospace, mining and industrial areas. Additionally, the ISO3080DWR is compliant with IEC 60950-1 and UL 60950-1 for safety critical applications. This makes it an ideal choice for applications that need to comply with the most stringent safety standards.

In summary, the ISO3080DWR digital output surface mount isolator is an ideal choice for applications requiring fast response times, high isolation voltages, low power consumption and a wide operating temperature range. Its integrated inductor circuit provides superior isolation performance over opto-couplers, with a lower power consumption making it an excellent choice for applications where power conservation is a priority.
