Abstract

Systems and methods pertaining to a digital signal isolator device are described. In one embodiment, the device includes an isolation barrier and two metal support paddles. The isolation barrier contains an organic and/or a semi-organic insulating material with at least one capacitor embedded inside. One of the two metal support paddles is located below a first portion of a bottom surface of the isolation barrier to provide support to the isolation barrier, while the other metal support paddle is located below a second portion of a bottom surface of the isolation barrier to provide support to the isolation barrier.
