Isolation Circuits isolate data and power in single package.(Data and Power Isolation Circuits Receive Automotive Qualification for Hybrid-Electric Vehicle Battery Management)

Designed using iCoupler[R] chip-scale micro-transformer technology, ADuM540xW Series integrates DC-to-DC converter, which provides up to 500 mW of regulated, isolated power at 5 V output. Units offer multiple isolation channels in variety of channel configurations and support data rates up to 25 Mbps. Operating from supply voltage of 4.5-5.5 V on either side, devices are qualified for AEC-Q100 -40 to +105[degrees]C automotive temperature, suited for HEV motor drives and battery management systems.

NORWOOD, Mass.-- The growing popularity of electric and hybrid-electric vehicles (HEVs) is placing new emphasis on the need for battery management to monitor voltage levels and provide car makers with the means to reduce battery weight, size and cost. Because HEV batteries operate at high voltages of up to 600 V, …
