NVE Corporation Announces Low-Power Isolators EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn.—March 28, 2018—NVE Corporation today announced the first IL01x-Series low-power isolators, with typical total quiescent current of just 0.3 milliamps per channel. 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 • 44000 year barrier life • 2.5 kilovolts isolation • -40 to +100 degrees Celsius The new devices use NVE’s patented low-power spintronic Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) technology. A unique ceramic/polymer composite barrier provides excellent isolation, best-in-class barrier resistance, and virtually unlimited barrier life. VDE V 0884-11 and UL 1577 approvals are pending. The four-channel versions use NVE’s unique True 8™ wide-body SOIC-16 package with full 8-millimeter creepage in accordance with IEC60601. Applications include: • Four-to-20 milliamp loop-powered controls • Battery-powered instruments • Serial Peripheral Interfaces (SPI) Samples of two popular channel configurations are available now, with two more coming soon:
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. Statements used in this announcement that relate to future plans, events, or performance are forward-looking statements that are subject to certain risks and uncertainties including, among others the risk factors listed from time to time in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K and other reports filed with the SEC. ### |
