Additional Details

The ADM210EARU integrates a complete RS-232 transceiver with a three-channel digital isolator, eliminating the need for separate components. The isolator provides 2500 V rms of galvanic isolation, protecting the communication lines from high-voltage transients and ground loops. The device operates from a single 5 V supply. The UART supports data rates up to 120 kbps. The integrated charge pump generates the RS-232 voltage levels from the 5V supply. It is available in a small outline (SOIC) package, making it suitable for space-constrained applications. The device is also protected against short circuits and electrostatic discharge (ESD).

This isolated transceiver is ideal for applications where reliable and safe data communication is critical, especially in environments with high levels of electrical noise or potential for voltage transients.
