Compatible with USB 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0 full-speed devices, it features 5KV ESD protection, 1.5A current rating, and built-in overcurrent protection with a red LED fault indicator. Ideal for developers, electronic enthusiasts, and professionals seeking reliable USB port safeguarding without compromising data integrity. ## Description This USB isolator is made for someone leads to burning the USB port of the computer device or the host device,and even burning the motherboard. Some electronic enthusiasts use the bare electronic device but may damaged the device accidently by some wrong operation. When you DIY a new circuit board, but there may be a short circuit or the current is too large, plugged into the computer for testing,causing the USB port to burn down or the motherboard is damaged. We have created a hardware device that can prevent this situation. Known as USB isolation.Its biggest feature is to prevent accidental surge attacks and prevent short circuits when you use USB properly. It is the protection of your computer, microcontroller, Raspberry Pi and other electronic devices! Protect your computer or the USB port of your development board without affecting your USB device use! When a short circuit condition occurs, a red light will be lit on the USB isolation device, which will remind you that the access device is short-circuited and will not cause damage to your computer. The USB Isolator is based on ADuM3160 component.Combining high speed CMOS and monolithic air core transformer technology, this isolation component provides outstanding performance characteristics and is easily integrated with low and full speed USB-compatible peripheral devices. Many microcontrollers implement USB so that it presents only the D+ and D− lines to external pins. This is desirable in many cases because it minimizes external components and simplifies the design;however, this presents particular challenges when isolation is required. Because the USB lines must switch between actively driving D+/D− and allowing external resistors to set the state of the bus,the ADuM3160 provides mechanisms for detecting the direction of data flow and control over the state of the output buffers. Review: Fixed speaker hum - Fixed speaker hum - helpful & good cost Review: Performed per Specification and More - This USB isolator did what the description said it would do, and did what others in the comments section said it couldn't do! I am using this do isolate ground loop noise on a USB/MIDI keyboard. The keyboard utilizes a combination of USB as well as analog audio. I could have also isolated the ground loop noise with a DI box. However, I did not want to insert anything in the audio path that would compromise the audio's bandwidth integrity. This isolator completely eliminated all the noise, 100%. As for performing above specification, the description says it has a limit of 200 mA. However, my keyboard per spec requires 250 mA. I took a chance, and this isolator never went into overload or shut down over a 5-hour show. Chances are my keyboard may not have been drawing more than 200 mA, but the specification for this isolator is very conservative and certainly accounts for some headroom. ## Features - 【Only USB1.0/USB 1.1/USB2.0 Full-Speed compatible】Please Note: USB 2.0 High Speed Devices are Not Supported - 【Power Isolator Inside 】1W MAX.

I get a horrible buzz sound when connecting phone to computer by usb.** A: This is not recommended for connecting mobile phone and computer **Q: Will this give full 5v power isolation from spikes and noise? Want to make sure it isolates the power as well.** A: I am using this to run a debug pod, and it works perfectly. It has isolated power WITH AN EFUSE, so it won't burn out if you pull too much power from it. Not sure how much isolation you get from spikes and noise, but it has electrical isolation and it looks like it's good to the rated voltage. I haven't hipotted it, but visually it looks like the design is correct for the specs. High frequency components of spikes and noise will couple through the isolation somewhat, but I don't know how much. **Q: I need power and signal isolation. does this device provide complete isolation of all aspects of the usb connection?** A: Yes, you can refer to this wiki:　https://wiki.52pi.com/index.php?title=EP-0101 **Q: Overcharge of t-mobile hotspot t10, is this device protecting my franklin t10 from battery overcharging when permanently connected to power?** A: No,it cannot protect against overcharging, but only against short circuits and protect the circuit. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fixed speaker hum *by J***6 on 3 April 2026* Fixed speaker hum - helpful & good cost ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Performed per Specification and More *by P***. on 28 February 2022* This USB isolator did what the description said it would do, and did what others in the comments section said it couldn't do!
