GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The
ADuM6400/ADuM6401/ADuM6402/ADuM6403/
ADuM6404
1
are quad-channel digital isolators with
isoPower®,
an integrated, isolated dc-to-dc converter. Based on the Analog
Devices, Inc.,
iCoupler®
technology, the dc-to-dc converter provides
up to 400 mW of regulated, isolated power at either 5.0 V or 3.3 V
from a 5.0 V input supply, or at 3.3 V from a 3.3 V supply at the
power levels shown in Table 1. These devices eliminate the need
for a separate, isolated dc-to-dc converter in low power, isolated
designs.
The
ADuM6400/ADuM6401/ADuM6402/ADuM6403/
ADuM6404
isolators provide four independent isolation
channels in a variety of channel configurations and data rates
(see the Ordering Guide for more information).
isoPower
uses high frequency switching elements to transfer power
through its transformer. Special care must be taken during printed
circuit board (PCB) layout to meet emissions standards. See the
AN-0971 Application Note
for board layout recommendations.
