This reference design showcases a cost-optimized architecture that improves resolution of a binary-input module. A microcontroller unit (MCU) is shared between two-input channels (group isolation) to minimize the cost per channel. Wide-input range is covered using an amplifier with gain and MCU-integrated 10-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) to measure within ±3% accuracy. This architecture eliminates the need for multiple hardware versions based on input voltage range as is the case with an opto-coupler based topology. A digital isolator is used to communicate the ADC code or the root-mean-square estimate of the input to the host processor. The design is tested for ESD, EFT and surge as per IEC61000-4 Level 4.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
