DESCRIPTION
The ISO7420, ISO7420M, ISO7421, and ISO7421M provide galvanic isolation up to 2.5 kVrms for 1 minute per
UL. These digital isolators have two isolated channels. Each isolation channel has a logic input and output buffer
separated by a silicon dioxide (SiO2) insulation barrier. Used in conjunction with isolated power supplies, these
devices prevent noise currents on a data bus or other circuit from entering the local ground and interfering with or
damaging sensitive circuitry. The suffix M indicates wide temperature range (–40°C to 125°C).
The devices have TTL input thresholds and require two supply voltages, 3.3V or 5V, or any combination. All
inputs are 5-V tolerant when supplied from a 3.3V supply.
Note: The ISO7420 and ISO7421 are specified for signaling rates up to 1 Mbps. Due to their fast response time,
under most cases, these devices will also transmit data with much shorter pulse widths. Designers should add
external filtering to remove spurious signals with input pulse duration < 20ns if desired.
