9 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

9.1 Application Information

ISO742x utilize single-ended TTL-logic switching technology. Its supply voltage range is from 3.15 V to 5.25 V for both supplies, VCC1 and VCC2. When designing with digital isolators, it is important to keep in mind that due to the single-ended design structure, digital isolators do not conform to any specific interface standard and are only intended for isolating single-ended CMOS or TTL digital signal lines. The isolator is typically placed between the data controller (i.e. μC or UART), and a data converter or a line transceiver, regardless of the interface type or standard.

9.2 Typical Application

ISO7421 can be used with Texas Instruments' mixed signal micro-controller, digital-to-analog converter, transformer driver, and voltage regulator to create an isolated 4-20 mA current loop.

9.2.1 Design Requirements

Unlike optocouplers, which require external components to improve performance, provide bias, or limit current, the ISO742x only require two external bypass capacitors to operate.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure
