Hi Yamashita-san,

Thank you for reaching out and sorry that you couldn't make out if the device offers reinforced isolation.
ISOM8710 is currently not rated for reinforced isolation, therefore, please treat it as basic isolation device. Thanks.

Regards,
Koteshwar Rao

Hi Koteshwar,

Thanks for the reply.
By the way, is there any way to distinguish between basic and reinforced insulation?

Best Regards,
Ryu.

Hi Yamashita-san,

TI reinforced isolator datasheets typically mention if the device is offered in basic isolation only or if it offers reinforced isolation as well, the first page typically mentions this. Additionally, this is also specified in the certificates. Thanks.

Hi Ryu,

ISOM8710 has been certified as reinforced insulator per VDE. We plan to certify our opto-emulators with reinforced ratings. Please see attached VDE certificated.

Thanks,
