Click Shields

RS232 Isolator click is a fully isolated dual transceiver click, used to provide secure and easy UART to RS232 conversion, with the galvanic isolation. The digital input and output signals are transmitted across the isolation barrier by utilizing the Analog Devices proprietary iCoupler® technology - IC scale transformer windings couple the digital signals magnetically, from one side of the barrier to the other, providing the galvanic isolation and transfer rates up to 460Kbps.

RS232 Isolator click can be used for galvanic isolation of RS232 signals, whenever there is a need for that kind of isolation - operating in harsh environments where electrostatic discharges (ESD) can occur, when the RS232 cable is plugged in and out frequently, and generally - wherever the sensitive part of the RS232 controller logic circuitry needs to be protected.
