In precise analog measurement systems, the ground shift is a frequent problem in industrial applications, can be solved by using digital isolators, because these isolation components enable additional functionality and also ensure safe operation of the system. Digital isolation devices are in demand to satisfy the safety regulations even though maximizing the benefits of modern CMOS technology. Digital isolators are typically used between analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and a microcontroller (MCU) in the signal path, and these applications are boosting the Digital Isolator Market. They are commonly found in the isolated power-supply functions of a given system. Reduced power consumption and transformation in field transmitter are the primary advancements of the digital isolator technology, which are influencing the manufacturers to adopt more number of digital isolators. All these factors are collectively growing digital isolator market demand. Digital isolation components offer multichannel isolation solutions, surges system reliability because of a lower failure rate, and also provide double electrical noise immunity to operate over a broader range of temperature. Thus, the global digital isolator market size stood at $1.5 billion in 2018 and is projected to grow with a CAGR of 6.8% all through the forecast period 2019-2025.

Digital isolator uses a single-ended CMOS technology and acts as the best alternative for an optocoupler, as it reduces the complexity associated with the design and components in the passage of digital signal. Additionally, it does not get damaged over the lifetime of the vehicle, and it also serves even in the harsh operating conditions through the changing seasons. Availability of digital isolators with different isolation ratings coupled with the signal integrity, latency, and EMC considerations are driving the growth of the global digital isolator market. Notably, digital isolator application is raising at a faster CAGR of 8.4% in both telecommunication and automotive industries collectively during the forecast period 2019-2025. These days, numerous hybrid electric vehicles are using iCoupler digital isolators not only to monitor battery levels but also to drive the efficient electric motor. Prevalence of electric vehicles (EVs) and various forms of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) on the road is augmenting the global digital isolator market revenue. 

Currently, these vehicles comprise a high-voltage battery ranging from 200V to 400V. Higher voltages are intended to enable higher power for maximizing the distance per charge in the future. As a consequence, this high-voltage battery demands the use of isolators mainly for signal transfer and safety across various voltage domains inside the vehicle. Practically, almost all foremost automobile makers have a future EV rollout plan. The high-temperature operation, noise immunity, and stability enabled by the digital isolator technology are highly accepted in the automotive industry with is to say that the automotive industry is an early adopter of digital technology, it is playing a vital role in the digital isolator market. Especially, battery management systems and chargers are the critical end applications which are driving the necessity for isolators in the EV market.

Raise in the incorporation of CMOS isolators at isolated power supplies, which are used in telecom base stations and servers. It is helpful to power the infrastructure to cope up with the increasingly connected world via the Internet of Things. Isolated power supply manufacturers are the quick adopters of digital. Furthermore, these power supplies are utilized mainly for servers and telecom base stations. CMOS-based digital isolators use the ultramodern semiconductor technology to its full extent and provide multifarious advantages to the system designer. These advantages have been shaping the evolution of power supplies, green energy, and automotive industries.


Digital Isolator Market in APAC Region: 

Digital isolators play a prominent role in circuit design and assist the developers to create an effective design. Increase in the number of electronic integrated circuits imports in APAC has been expanding the scope for digital isolator market players in this region. China, Singapore, Taiwan, and Japan are the top importers of electronic integrated circuits. These four countries collectively hold an almost three-fourth share of world imports that is about 76.7% as of 2018. China is recognized as the topmost importer, whereas Malaysia is identified as the country, which has experienced the highest annual growth in value that is 53% from 2017 to 2018. Therefore, APAC occupied a dominating regional digital isolator market share of 40.15% in the global digital isolator market in 2018. In 2018, the number of electric cars got sold in China compared to the rest of the world. In addition to this, the Chinese government has spent a total amount of $60 billion in the creation of an industry which manufactures electric cars. The government is also planning to spend even more in the next decade to fulfill the rising demand for electric cars. Electric vehicles mostly rely on the batteries as they operate the motor efficiently.


Major Players in Digital Isolator Market Include:

Texas Instruments, Analog Devices, Infineon Technologies, Silicon Labs, Broadcom Limited, ROHM Semiconductor, Maxim Integrated, NXP Semiconductors, NVE, Vicor, Murata Manufacturing, National Instruments, IXYS Corporation, Halo Electronics, and Advantech are some of the key players which are operating in the global digital isolator market. These companies have been continuously concentrating on product launches, to strengthen their portfolio and their stable existence in respective geographies.  


Developments in the Digital Isolator Marketplace:

· On February 20 2017, Analog Devices Inc. publicized about the certification of the industry’s first intrinsically safe digital isolators based on IEC 60079-11:2011 standards. As a result, designing of electrical equipment using the ideal options that include 4-channel ADuM144x series digital isolators along with iCoupler technology is built for use in hazardous areas. These digital isolators are highly preferred protection methods for higher data rates, efficient operation, and reduced installation cost. Furthermore, these innovative isolators are ultra-low-power that lowers the energy requirement in hazardous areas. This innovation will position the organization in the digital isolator market.

· Renesas Electronics Corporation is a supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions in Japan. In January 2019, the organization announced the introduction of two plastic packaged and radiation-tolerant digital isolators. They are designed to provide the highest isolation protection of 2,500VRMS from high voltage spikes in power supply stages and serial communications interfaces, which are used for small satellites in low earth orbit.

· On August 16 in 2018, Maxim Integrated launched a 5kVrms Max 22445 Reinforced Digital Isolator, which is an important innovation in the digital isolator market. The notable advantage of this product is that it doubles the throughput by consuming four times lower power, thereby reducing energy consumption.

On the other hand, it also provides better protection to industrial systems from the hazards of high-voltage signals. This digital isolator allows the machine designers to form reliable communication through the isolation barrier and also to ensure safe operation of industrial and medical equipment.
