High Speed (UAC2) USB Galvanic Isolator

High Speed USB Isolator - "Ground Loop Breaker"

For measurement and audio.

Internal/External Output Power Supply

Based on new TI' ISOUSB211 or Analog Device ADUM3165 chip, this device provides full isolation between PC and external equipment. This is to prevent noise coming from the PC and eliminate ground loops.

There are two possible use cases:

1. Using DC/DC power from USB, to provide 5v to the external device.
   This can be used with any USB devices, self powered or PC powered, just place an isolator between the PC and the device. Noise from DC / DC is certainly present, but usually this noise is less than the noise from the PC. The power limitation of the DC/DC converter must also be taken into account.
   
   

2. Using an external 5 V DC power supply to power the secondary part of the isolator, as well as an external device. This provides complete isolation, but may be overkill for many devices.
   However, this option can provide much higher current to the external device and less noise if a linear power supply is used.

Q2.2023: New Model III  replaced the old Model I & 2. - with automatic switch between the internal and external power supplies by DC-Plug insertion.

Q3.2023: As TI's ISOUSB211 chip is not always available, isolator with Analog Devices ADUM3165 in available.

Q2.2024: Since most customers ask for the TI version, the AD version will not be produced until the TI is available.

        This device does not work witn non standard USB Ports (like "non powered", etc.)
