Description
N
VE’s IL700 family of high-speed digital isolators are CMOS devices
manufactured with NVE’s patented* IsoLoop® spintronic Giant
Magnetoresistive (GMR) technology. The IL711S and IL712S are the
world’s fastest two-channel isolators, with a 150 Mbps typical data rate for
both channels.
The symmetric magnetic coupling barrier provides a typical propagation
delay of only 10 ns and a pulse width distortion as low as 300 ps (0.3 ns),
achieving the best specifications of any isolator. Typical transient immunity
of 30 kV/µs is unsurpassed.
The IL711 has two transmit channels; the IL712 and IL721 have one
transmit and one receive channel. The IL712 and IL721 operate full duplex,
making them ideal for many fieldbus applications, including PROFIBUS,
DeviceNet, and CAN. The IL721 has channels reversed to better suit certain
board layouts.
The IL711 and IL712 are available in 8-pin MSOP, SOIC, and PDIP
packages. The IL721 is available in an 8-pin SOIC package. Standard and
S-Grade parts are specified over a temperature range of 40°C to +100°C; T-
Grade parts have a maximum operating temperature of +125°C.

Notes (apply to both 3.3 V and 5 V specifications):
1. Absolute maximum ambient operating temperature means the device will not be damaged if operated under these conditions. It does not
guarantee performance.
2. PWD is defined as |tPHL tPLH|. %PWD is equal to PWD divided by pulse width.
3. tPSK is the magnitude of the worst-case difference in tPHL and/or tPLH between devices at 25°C.
4. CMH is the maximum common mode voltage slew rate that can be sustained while maintaining VO > 0.8 VDD2. CML is the maximum
common mode input voltage that can be sustained while maintaining VO < 0.8 V. The common mode voltage slew rates apply to both rising
and falling common mode voltage edges.
5. Device is considered a two terminal device: pins 1–4 shorted and pins 5–8 shorted.
6. Dynamic power consumption is calculated per channel and is supplied by the channel’s input side power supply.
7. Minimum pulse width is the minimum value at which specified PWD is guaranteed.
8. The relevant test and measurement methods are given in the Electromagnetic Compatibility section on p. 6.
9. External magnetic field immunity is improved by this factor if the field direction is “end-to-end” rather than to “pin-to-pin” (see diagram on p. 6).
10. 64k-bit pseudo-random binary signal (PRBS) NRZ bit pattern with no more than five consecutive 1s or 0s; 800 ps transition time.

Application Information
Electrostatic Discharge Sensitivity
This product has been tested for electrostatic sensitivity to the
limits stated in the specifications. However, NVE recommends that
all integrated circuits be handled with appropriate care to avoid
damage. Damage caused by inappropriate handling or storage could
range from performance degradation to complete failure.
Electromagnetic Compatibility
IsoLoop Isolators have the lowest EMC footprint of any isolation
technology. IsoLoop Isolators’ Wheatstone bridge configuration
and differential magnetic field signaling ensure excellent EMC
performance against all relevant standards.
These isolators are fully compliant with generic EMC standards
EN50081, EN50082-1 and the umbrella line-voltage standard for
Information Technology Equipment (ITE) EN61000. NVE has
completed compliance tests in the categories below:
EN50081-1
Residential, Commercial & Light Industrial
Methods EN55022, EN55014
EN50082-2: Industrial Environment
Methods EN61000-4-2 (ESD), EN61000-4-3 (Electromagnetic
Field Immunity), EN61000-4-4 (Electrical Transient Immunity),
EN61000-4-6 (RFI Immunity), EN61000-4-8 (Power Frequency
Magnetic Field Immunity), EN61000-4-9 (Pulsed Magnetic
Field), EN61000-4-10 (Damped Oscillatory Magnetic Field)
ENV50204
Radiated Field from Digital Telephones (Immunity Test)
Immunity to external magnetic fields is even higher if the field
direction is “end-to-end” rather than to “pin-to-pin” as shown in the
diagram below: Cross-axis Field Direction
Dynamic Power Consumption
IsoLoop Isolators achieve their low power consumption from the
way they transmit data across the isolation barrier. By detecting the
edge transitions of the input logic signal and converting these to
narrow current pulses, a magnetic field is created around the GMR
Wheatstone bridge. Depending on the direction of the magnetic
field, the bridge causes the output comparator to switch following
the input logic signal. Since the current pulses are narrow, about
2.5 ns, the power consumption is independent of mark-to-space
ratio and solely dependent on frequency. This has obvious
advantages over optocouplers, which have power consumption
heavily dependent on mark-to-space ratio.
Power Supply Decoupling
Both power supplies to these devices should be decoupled with
low-ESR 47 nF ceramic capacitors. Ground planes for both GND1
and GND2 are highly recommended for data rates above 10 Mbps.
Capacitors must be located as close as possible to the VDD pins.
Signal Status on Start-up and Shut Down
To minimize power dissipation, input signals are differentiated and
then latched on the output side of the isolation barrier to reconstruct
the signal. This could result in an ambiguous output state
depending on power up, shutdown and power loss sequencing.
Unless the circuit connected to the isolator performs its own power-
on reset (POR), the designer should consider including an
initialization signal in the start-up circuit. Initialization consists of
toggling the input either high then low, or low then high.
In CAN applications, the IL712 or IL721 should be used with CAN
transceivers with Dominant Timeout functions for seamless POR.
Most CAN transceiver manufacturers offer Dominant
Timeout optio ns. Examples include NXP’s TJA 1 050 an d
TJA 1040 transceivers.
Data Transmission Rates
The reliability of a transmission system is directly related to the
accuracy and quality of the transmitted digital information. For a
digital system, those parameters which determine the limits of the
data transmission are pulse width distortion and propagation delay
skew.
Propagation delay is the time taken for the signal to travel through
the device. This is usually different when sending a low-to-high
than when sending a high-to-low signal. This difference, or error, is
called pulse width distortion (PWD) and is usually in nanoseconds.
It may also be expressed as a percentage:
PWD% = Maximum Pulse Width Distortion (ns) x 100%
Signal Pulse Width (ns)
For example, with data rates of 12.5 Mbps:
PWD% = 3 ns x 100% = 3.75%
This figure is almost three times better than an y available
optocoupler with the same temperature range, and two times better
than any optocoupler regardless of published temperature range.
IsoLoop isolators exceed the 10% maximum PWD recommended
by PROFIBUS, and will run to nearly 35 Mb within t he 10% limit.
Propagation delay skew is the signal propagation difference
between two or more channels. This becomes significant in clocked
systems because it is undesirable for the clock pulse to arrive
before the data has settled. Short propagation delay skew is
therefore especially critical in high data rate parallel systems for
establishing and maintaining accuracy and repeatability. Worst-
case channel-to-channel skew in an IL700 Isolator is only 3 ns,
which is ten times better than any optocoupler. IL700 Isolators
have a maximum propagation delay skew of 6 ns, which is five
times better than any optocoupler.

In today’s CAN networks, node-to-node isolation is increasingly recommended by designers to reduce EMI susceptibility, especially in high-
speed applications and in hybrid and electrical vehicle networks, where the 12 V battery has been replaced with one of several hundred volts.
Operator and equipment safety becomes critical when a high voltage source, such as the battery, needs to be connected to diagnosis systems
during routine maintenance procedures. In the application shown above, the microcontroller is isolated from the CAN transceiver by an IL712 or
IL721, allowing higher speed and more reliable bus operation by eliminating ground loops and reducing susceptibility to noise and EMI events.
The best-in-class 10 ns typical IL712/IL721 propagation delay minimizes CAN loop delay and maximizes data rate over any given bus length.
The simple circuit works with any CAN transceiver with a TxD dominant timeout, which includes all of the current-generation transceivers.
