Overview
Introducing the SPI Isolator 4 Click Board™ - the ultimate compact solution for isolating your serial peripheral interface. Our state-of-the-art board features the ADuM341E, a powerful quad-channel 5kVRMS digital isolator from Analog Devices that delivers outstanding performance.
The ADuM341E combines high speed, CMOS, and monolithic air core transformer technology to provide outstanding isolation, with a withstand voltage rating of 5kVrms. Its data channels are independent and available in various configurations, with an external supply voltage range of 2.25V to 5.5V, making it compatible with lower voltage systems and enabling voltage translation functionality across the isolation barrier.
Whether you're looking for general SPI-bus isolation, RS485 and CAN FG industrial field bus isolation, GPIO multichannel isolation, or any other application, the SPI Isolator 4 Click Board™ is the perfect solution. And with our mikroSDK compliant library and fully tested product, software development has never been easier. Simply plug the SPI Isolator 4 Click into your system equipped with the mikroBUS™ socket and you're ready to go!
How Does The SPI Isolator 4 Click Board™Work?
The SPI Isolator 4 Click Board™ is based on the ADuM341E1BRWZ, a quad-channel digital isolator optimized for a serial peripheral interface from Analog Devices. This isolation component provides outstanding performance characteristics by combining high speed and CMOS technology and uses a high-frequency carrier to transmit data across the isolation barrier using iCoupler chip scale transformer coils separated by layers of polyimide isolation. Its data channels are independent and available in various configurations with a withstand voltage rating of 5kVrms.
Using an ON/OFF keying (OOK) technique and the differential architecture, the ADuM341E has a very low propagation delay and high speed. It operates with the external supply voltage ranging from 2.25V to 5.5V, providing compatibility with lower voltage systems enabling voltage translation functionality across the isolation barrier. The ADuM341E architecture is designed for high common-mode transient (CMTI) immunity and high immunity to electrical noise and magnetic interference.
Unlike other optocoupler alternatives, dc correctness is ensured in the absence of input logic transitions. Two different fail-safe options are available, by which the outputs go into a predetermined state when the input power supply is not applied, or the inputs are disabled.
The SPI Isolator 4 Click Board™ communicates with MCU using the SPI serial interface with a maximum data rate of 100Mbps. This Click board™ also comes with an SDO line enable control pin, labelled as EN1 routed on the PWM pin of the mikroBUS™ socket. When EN1 is in a high logic state, the SDO line is enabled, and when EN1 is in a low logic state, the SDO line is disabled to the high-Z state.
The SPI Isolator 4 Click Board™ can operate with both 3.3V and 5V logic voltage levels selected via the VCC SEL jumper. This way, it is allowed for both 3.3V and 5V capable MCUs to use the SPI communication lines properly. However, the Click board™ comes equipped with a library containing easy-to-use functions and an example code that can be used, as a reference, for further development.
