Hello
My customer has designed a system with 6 node of ISO3082. The GND of each bus side is not connected to each other. Will the float GND cause any damage to ISO3082?
Customer recently report high failure in end customer field. The major failure symptom is the GND1 and GND2 is short. Please suggest the possible cause of such damage.
Thanks!
Paul
Hi Paul,
Just to follow up on my response, the GND pins on one side of the ISO3082 not being connected to the GNDs of the opposing side of the isolator will absolutely not cause GND1 to GND2 shorts. A short between GND1 and GND2 is likely due to a very high voltage difference between the two sides of this device.
May I email you for more information and details about the application?
Thank you for your time,
Manuel Chavez
