Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADI), a global leader in
high-performance signal processing technology, today announced that
it shipped the one-billionth channel of isolation based on its
proprietary iCoupler® digital isolator technology. This achievement
comes after more than a decade of global industry leadership in the
area of galvanic safety isolation, which serves customers in a wide
array of applications including industrial control systems and
motor drives, solar energy systems, hybrid electric vehicles,
medical equipment and plasma TVs. Watch a video on ADI’s digital

“Analog Devices has created the industry’s broadest and highest
performing portfolio of digital isolator products, which is a
testament to the quality, robustness and safety of our isolation
technology,” said Dick Meaney, vice president, Products and
Technologies, Analog Devices. “We leveraged our industry leadership
in data converters, energy metering and interface transceivers to
address the growing need for higher isolation. As we move toward
our two-billion channel milestone, we will continue to expand our
portfolio to integrate functions from other ADI technology
areas.”
Responding to the industry’s need to integrate more
functionality into smaller form factors to improve energy
efficiency and increase data throughput, ADI invented iCoupler
technology more than 10 years ago to eliminate the penalties
associated with optocoupler-based isolation while still meeting
rigorous safety standards. Optocouplers limit interface data rates,
consume excessive power and are difficult to integrate with
multi-directional channels and other functions, leading to
oversized solutions. ADI’s iCoupler technology utilizes fast,
cost-efficient chip-scale transformers that can be integrated
easily with other features.
Today, ADI’s iCoupler digital isolators are the industry
standard for engineers seeking high-speed, low-power,
space-efficient solutions without compromising certified safety
isolation. ADI’s iCoupler digital isolator portfolio includes
products with isolated power, USB, RS-485, RS-232, CAN, I²C®, gate
drivers, error amplifiers, A/D converters, and energy meter
interfaces.
