ADM3053BRWZ: Reliable Isolation for Industrial Use

Overview

The ADM3053BRWZ is an integrated isolated CAN transceiver from Analog Devices (ADI) , which also features a built-in isolated DC/DC power converter , providing a complete, compact, and highly reliable isolation solution for CAN bus systems.

This device employs iCoupler® digital isolation technology and isoPower® isolated power supply technology , achieving dual isolation functions of data isolation and power isolation without the need for an external isolated power supply or DC/DC module. It is ideal for applications requiring high security and interference immunity, such as industrial communication, automotive electronics, CAN bus isolation nodes, industrial control equipment, and motor drive systems .

The ADM3053 has extremely high integration, reducing BOM costs and PCB complexity, and is widely used and highly regarded in isolated CAN designs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Does the ADM3053 support CAN FD?
The transceiver section of the ADM3053 is still designed according to
the classic CAN (up to 1 Mbps) specification. Although it may be possible to try using CAN FD at lower rates (such as 500 kbps data stages) in some applications , this is not officially guaranteed or recommended . For full CAN FD performance, the ADM3055E / ADM3057E series is recommended.

Q2: Is an external isolated power supply module required?
No. The ADM3053 has a built-in isoPower isolated DC/DC converter that can provide both isolated power supply and CAN bus isolation, simplifying system design and reducing the number of components.
