What is the Purpose of an Analog Isolator?
An analog isolator (isolation amplifier or signal isolator) is an electronic device used to transfer analog signals while maintaining electrical isolation between its input and output. The equipment provides electrical isolation of the input and output signals, preventing ground loops and interference effects. Isolation protects equipment from high-voltage surges and spikes while rejecting common-mode voltages. The result assures minimal transmission of electrical noise and interference to maintain the quality and integrity of the signal during transmission to the destination. With these functions, the isolator allows for an efficient measurement system that runs smoothly in various applications.
