NVE Corporation Adds Low-Power Tunneling Magnetoresistance
Isolator Models
Typical total quiescent current only 0.3 milliamps per channel

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.November 28, 2018NVE Corporation today announced
two additions to its IL01x-Series
of Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) low-power isolators. With the addition of
the one-direction IL011-3E and IL015E models, NVE now offers low-power TMR isolators
in all the popular channel configurations.
IL01x-Series isolators use NVEs patented low-power spintronic Tunneling
Magnetoresistance (TMR) technology. With typical total quiescent current of just
0.3 milliamps per channel, the new parts use one-fourth the power of NVEs
flagship isolators.
A unique ceramic/polymer composite barrier provides excellent isolation, best-in-class
barrier resistance, and virtually unlimited barrier life.
Even with the low power, the new parts provide remarkable performance:
10 megabits per second guaranteed maximum data rate
No carriers or clocks for low electromagnetic interference
100 teraohm insulation resistance
2.5 kilovolts isolation
44000 year barrier life
-40 to +100 degrees Celsius
The four-channel versions use NVEs unique True 8 wide-body SOIC-16
package with full eight-millimeter creepage in accordance with IEC60601.
Applications include:
Four-to-20 milliamp loop-powered controls
Battery-powered instruments
SPI
Lanched in June 2018, the IL01x-Series now includes five popular channel configurations:

NVE is a leader in the practical commercialization of spintronics, a nanotechnology
that relies on electron spin rather than electron charge to acquire, store and
transmit information. The company manufactures high-performance spintronic products
including sensors and couplers that are used to acquire and transmit data. NVE
has also licensed its spintronic magnetoresistive random access memory technology,
commonly known as MRAM.
