ISO6520 2-Channel Digital Isolator Carrier, 2/0, Default High, F
These modules are carrier boards or breakout boards for the ISO652x general purpose functional isolators from Texas Instruments; we therefore recommend referring to the ISO652x datasheet for detailed specifications. The ISO652x features two digital channels that enable communication between two galvanically (electrically) isolated devices at up to 50 Mbps per channel. This isolation means that current cannot flow from one side to the other, and incorrect connections or bad voltages on one side cannot propagate through to damage the device on the other side. It also means the logic voltage can be at different levels on the two sides, allowing these carrier boards to function as level shifters.

This version features the ISO6520, which has both channels in the forward direction and defaults to high in the event of input power or signal loss. It can be differentiated from the other versions by the “6520” marking on the IC.
