8.1.1 Carrier Frequency Considerations

The ISO124 amplifier transmits the signal across the isolation barrier by a 500-kHz duty-cycle modulation technique. For input signals having frequencies below 250 kHz, this system works like any linear amplifier. But for frequencies above 250 kHz, the behavior is similar to that of a sampling amplifier. Figure 9 shows this behavior graphically; at input frequencies above 250 kHz, the device generates an output signal component of reduced magnitude at a frequency below 250 kHz. This is the aliasing effect of sampling at frequencies less than two times the signal frequency (the Nyquist frequency). At the carrier frequency and its harmonics, both the frequency and amplitude of the aliasing go to zero.
