Isolated Receiver Output LED. Internal LED anode in MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC and
LED cathode in MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB. Connect to ISO RO DRV through a resis-
tor (Table 1 for MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC; Table 2 for MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB).

Isolated Driver-Enable Drive. The driver outputs, A and B, are enabled by bringing
DE
high. The driver outputs are high impedance when DE is low. If the driver
outputs are enabled, the device functions as a line driver. While the driver outputs
are high impedance, the device functions as a line receiver. Open-collector out-
put; must have pullup to ISO VCC_ and be connected to ISO DE IN for normal
operation (Table 1).

Isolated Supply Voltage. Connect to ISO VCC1 (pin 26 for MAX1480EA/
MAX1480EC, or pin 22 for MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB).

Isolated Driver-Input Drive. With DE
high (MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC only), a low on
DI
forces output A low and output B high. Similarly, a high on DI forces output A
high and output B low. Connect to ISO DI IN (on the MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC only)
for normal operation. Open-collector output; connect a pullup resistor to ISO VCC_
(Table 1 for MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC, Table 2 for MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB).

Driver Input. With DE
high (MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC only), a low on DI forces
output A low and output B high. Similarly, a high on DI
forces output A high and
output B low. Drives internal LED cathode through a resistor (see Table 1 for
MAX1480EA/MAX1480EC, Table 2 for MAX1490EA/MAX1490EB).

is low. If the driver out-
puts are enabled, the device functions as a line driver. While the driver outputs

LED cathode through a resistor (Table 1).

Receiver Output. If A > B by 200mV, RO is high; if A < B by 200mV, RO is low.
Open collector; must have pullup to VCC (Table 2).

5
Logic-Side Ground. Connect to GND2 (pin 12).
6
Frequency Select Input. If FS = VCC_ or is open, switch frequency is high; if FS
= GND, switch frequency is low. For optimal performance and minimal supply
current, connect FS to VCC_ or leave unconnected.
7
Shutdown Input. Ground for normal operation. When high, the power oscillator is
disabled.
