Overview
Isolated communications buses are used in a variety of applications including industrial, instrumentation, medical, consumer, power supply, motor drive and automotive systems. This seminar will cover tips and techniques for implementing iCoupler' digital isolation in these applications whether they employ long-distance, industrial buses (e.g., RS-485, RS-232, etc.) or short-distance buses (e.g., SPI, IC, USB, etc.). Isolation for both serial and parallel buses will also be reviewed, with design tips for achieving up to 5kV isolation at high data rates without compromising timing performance. Because many systems also require a source for isolated power, this seminar will also review available technology and solutions for achieving ntegrated, isolated power.
Presenter:
Mark Cantrell, Applications Engineer, Analog Devices, Inc., Wilmington, MA. Mark provides application engineering support for ADI's iCoupler® isolation product line at ADI. Prior to joining ADI, Mark spent 6 six year at California Eastern Laboratories where he was responsible for application support for NEC's optocouplers and solid state relay product lines. Mark's experience also includes 17 years at Lockheed Martin missiles and space where he was a radiation effects test engineer, including work on the Gravity Probe B satellite program. Mark received his MS in Physics from Indiana University.
