The Keterex USB-150 Full Speed USB Isolator provides up to 2000Vrms of galvanic isolation between a USB host and peripheral. It is used in applications where the host and peripheral device operate at different ground potentials, such as when an in-circuit debugger is used with a target system attached to AC power.
The USB-150 Isolator is connected between host and peripheral using standard USB A/B cables. An isolated 5V supply at up to 400mA is provided to the downstream device over the USB cable. The Isolator is invisible to both the host and peripheral − no device driver or configuration is required. Any full-speed USB device can be isolated using the USB-150 and standard USB cables.
Note: The MPLAB ICD 3 In-Circuit Debugger and MPLAB REAL ICE In-Circuit Emulator normally operate at a faster speed than the isolator can support. Windows will display a warning message when the device is first connected, or reset by MPLAB IDE. This warning can be safely ignored.
