NVE Corporation has introduced low-cost versions of its award-winning IsoLoop® isolated RS-485 transceivers.
World’s Smallest
NVE’s unique narrow-body versions, designated with the -3E suffix, are the world’s smallest isolated transceivers. The 0.15-inch wide 16-pin “dash 3” SOIC package is half the size of other isolators.
Best-in-Class Specifications
The new transceivers feature best-in-class speed and efficiency for a low-cost transceiver, including 4 Mbps data rate and 3 milliamp typical controller-side quiescent current.
The parts meet or exceed ANSI RS-485 and ISO 8482:1987(E) industry standards.
Rugged and Reliable
Designed for rugged industrial applications, IL3085 transceivers have a -40 to +85 degree Celsius temperature range, 15 kV bus ESD protection, and current limiting and thermal shutdown features. Receiver inputs feature a “fail-safe if open” design.
Parts are IEC 61010-2001 approved and UL 1577 recognized. Unlike optocouplers or other isolation technologies, IsoLoop isolators have indefinite life at high voltage.
