ADuM1252/3: ultra-low power, uni-or-bidirectional I2C isolator with extended VDD, idle-bus hot-swap and low VOL
The ADuM1252 works well for applications, such as I2C, that require data to be transmitted in both directions on the same line. The ADuM1253 is ideal for applications that require data to be transmitted in both directions on the same line but have a unidirectional clock.
To prevent latch-up action, side 1 outputs comprise special buffers that regulate the logic-low voltage at 0.64V, and the input logic-low threshold is at least 50mV lower than the output logic-low voltage. Side 2 features conventional buffers that do not regulate logic-low output voltage.
The ADuM1252/3 features independent 1.71V to 5.5V supplies on both side 1 and side 2 of the isolator. The device operates up to 2MHz. The ultra-low standby current of 21μA per side is ideal for battery-operated systems.
The ADuM1252/3 provides a disturbance-free bus connection for hot-plug connections on side 2 by first precharging the bus pins and then monitoring the bus state for either an idle bus or detection of an I2C stop condition before connecting side 1 and side 2.
The ADuM1252/3 is available in an 8-pin narrow SOIC package. The device is rated for operation at ambient temperatures of -40°C to +125°C.
