Some electronic enthusiasts use the bare electronic device but may damaged the device accidently by some wrong operation. When you DIY a new circuit board, but there may be a short circuit or the current is too large, plugged into the computer for testing,causing the USB port to burn down or the motherboard is damaged. We have created a hardware device that can prevent this situation. Known as USB isolation.Its biggest feature is to prevent accidental surge attacks and prevent short circuits when you use USB properly. It is the protection of your computer, microcontroller, Raspberry Pi and other electronic devices! Protect your computer or the USB port of your development board without affecting your USB device use! When a short circuit condition occurs, a red light will be lit on the USB isolation device, which will remind you that the access device is short-circuited and will not cause damage to your computer. The USB Isolator is based on ADuM3160 component.Combining high speed CMOS and monolithic air core transformer technology, this isolation component provides outstanding performance characteristics and is easily integrated with low and full speed USB-compatible peripheral devices. Many microcontrollers implement USB so that it presents only the D+ and D− lines to external pins. This is desirable in many cases because it minimizes external components and simplifies the design;however, this presents particular challenges when isolation is required. Because the USB lines must switch between actively driving D+/D− and allowing external resistors to set the state of the bus,the ADuM3160 provides mechanisms for detecting the direction of data flow and control over the state of the output buffers. Review: Performed per Specification and More - This USB isolator did what the description said it would do, and did what others in the comments section said it couldn't do! I am using this do isolate ground loop noise on a USB/MIDI keyboard. The keyboard utilizes a combination of USB as well as analog audio. I could have also isolated the ground loop noise with a DI box. However, I did not want to insert anything in the audio path that would compromise the audio's bandwidth integrity. This isolator completely eliminated all the noise, 100%. As for performing above specification, the description says it has a limit of 200 mA. However, my keyboard per spec requires 250 mA. I took a chance, and this isolator never went into overload or shut down over a 5-hour show. Chances are my keyboard may not have been drawing more than 200 mA, but the specification for this isolator is very conservative and certainly accounts for some headroom. Review: Does what is says, for all the tests I tried. - Does what it says. I tested it with a Klein Tools ET920 USB Tester, and a resistance-subsitution-box..which allows one to incrementally adjust to less and less resistance. I got it all the way down to 1 ohm, and 1.3 amps. I did not try this setup with data simultaneously, as I cut the test USB cord in two. I also test this device with the wires shorted in the usb cable (the power wires), and it got 1.03 amps...which is sort of interesting, since they are the same wires that just before had an additional 1 ohm of resistance in the loop...yet had MORE amperage. But, it was close to the same. Likewise, I ran Arduino Micro through it, with USB and tested up to 2Mbps, quiet successfully. I'm looking to use some other kind of microcontroller and test up to the full 12Mbps. I did try two of my external-USB-Harddrives and neither would usb-post. They were only looking for about 0.58 amps when trying to spin up, and about 0.4 amps. So, since tested it to 1-1.3 amps with the shorted USB-cord, then my drives must not have worked, simply due to not enough USB-throughput with this isolator. I had hoped to connect things like Oscilloscopes and other expensive test Equipment through one of these. But, the low bandwidth, and USB 1.0 only compatibility is keeping it from working it looks like. ## Features - 【Only USB1.0/USB 1.1/USB2.0 Full-Speed compatible】Please Note: USB 2.0 High Speed Devices are Not Supported - 【Power Isolator Inside 】1W MAX.

I get a horrible buzz sound when connecting phone to computer by usb.** A: This is not recommended for connecting mobile phone and computer **Q: Will this give full 5v power isolation from spikes and noise? Want to make sure it isolates the power as well.** A: I am using this to run a debug pod, and it works perfectly. It has isolated power WITH AN EFUSE, so it won't burn out if you pull too much power from it. Not sure how much isolation you get from spikes and noise, but it has electrical isolation and it looks like it's good to the rated voltage. I haven't hipotted it, but visually it looks like the design is correct for the specs. High frequency components of spikes and noise will couple through the isolation somewhat, but I don't know how much. **Q: I need power and signal isolation. does this device provide complete isolation of all aspects of the usb connection?** A: Yes, you can refer to this wiki:　https://wiki.52pi.com/index.php?title=EP-0101 **Q: Overcharge of t-mobile hotspot t10, is this device protecting my franklin t10 from battery overcharging when permanently connected to power?** A: No,it cannot protect against overcharging, but only against short circuits and protect the circuit. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Performed per Specification and More *by P***. on February 28, 2022* This USB isolator did what the description said it would do, and did what others in the comments section said it couldn't do!

Bought another, it didn't work at all from day one. It added a ton of static noise. Got a replacement and hoping it will work. ## Frequently Bought Together - GeeekPi USB Isolator Module ADUM3160 USB Digital Isolation USB to USB Voltage Isolator Board Protection (5KV ESD MAX) with OC Protection - DSD TECH SH-G01A USB Isolator with ADUM3160 Chip 12M - DSD TECH SH-G01L USB Isolator Supports USB 2.0 480Mbps High Speed Isolation --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hu/products/139341110-geeekpi-usb-isolator-module-adum3160-digital-isolation-usb-to-usb](https://www.desertcart.hu/products/139341110-geeekpi-usb-isolator-module-adum3160-digital-isolation-usb-to-usb) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hungary* *Store origin: HU* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
