TYPICAL APPLICATION
FEATURES DESCRIPTION
isoSPI Isolated
Communications Interface
The LTC
®
6820 provides bidirectional SPI communications
between two isolated devices through a single twisted-
pair connection. Each LTC6820 encodes logic states into
signals that are transmitted across an isolation barrier to
another LTC6820. The receiving LTC6820 decodes the
transmission and drives the slave bus to the appropriate
logic states. The isolation barrier can be bridged by a simple
pulse transformer to achieve hundreds of volts of isolation.
The LTC6820 drives differential signals using matched
source and sink currents, eliminating the requirement
for a transformer center tap and reducing EMI. Precision
window comparators in the receiver detect the differential
signals. The drive currents and the comparator thresholds
are set by a simple external resistor divider, allowing the
system to be optimized for required cable lengths and
desired signal-to-noise performance.
