GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADuM344x1 are four channel, digital isolators based on the
Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology supporting data rates
up to 150 Mbps. Combining high speed CMOS and monolithic
air core transformer technology, these isolation components
provide outstanding performance characteristics superior to
alternatives such as optocoupler devices.
By avoiding the use of LEDs and photodiodes, iCoupler
devices remove the design difficulties commonly associated
with optocouplers. The typical optocoupler concerns regarding
uncertain current transfer ratios, nonlinear transfer functions,
and temperature and lifetime effects are eliminated with the
simple iCoupler digital interfaces and stable performance
characteristics. The need for external drivers and other discrete
components is eliminated with these iCoupler products.

rights of third parties that may result from its use. Specifications subject to change without notice. No
license is granted by implication or otherwise under any patent or patent rights of Analog Devices.
Trademarks and registered trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
Furthermore, iCoupler devices consume one-tenth to one-sixth
the power of optocouplers at comparable signal data rates.
The ADuM344x isolators provide four independent isolation
channels in a variety of channel configurations (see the
Ordering Guide). The ADuM344x operates with the supply
voltage on either side ranging from 3.0 V to 5.5 V, providing
compatibility with lower voltage systems as well as enabling
voltage translation functionality across the isolation barrier. In
addition, the ADuM344x provides low pulse width distortion
and tight channel-to-channel matching. Unlike other optocoupler alternatives, the ADuM344x isolators have a patented
refresh feature that ensures dc correctness in the absence of
input logic transitions and during the power-up/power-down
condition.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PC BOARD LAYOUT
The ADuM344x digital isolator requires no external interface
circuitry for the logic interfaces. Power supply bypassing is
strongly recommended at the input and output supply pins (see
Figure 16). Bypass capacitors are most conveniently connected
between Pin 1 and Pin 2 for V
for V
. The capacitor value should be between 0.01 μF and 0.1 μF.
DD2
and between Pin 15 and Pin 16
DD1
The total lead length between both ends of the capacitor and
the input power supply pin should not exceed 20 mm. Bypassing
between Pin 1 and Pin 8 and between Pin 9 and Pin 16 should
be considered unless the ground pair on each package side is
connected close to the package.
In applications involving high common-mode transients, care
should be taken to ensure that board coupling across the isolation
barrier is minimized. Furthermore, the board layout should be
designed such that any coupling that does occur equally affects
all pins on a given component side. Failure to ensure this could
cause voltage differentials between pins exceeding the device’s
absolute maximum ratings, thereby leading to latch-up or
permanent damage.
See the AN-1109 Application Note for board layout guidelines.
PROPAGATION DELAY-RELATED PARAMETERS
Propagation delay is a parameter that describes the time it takes
a logic signal to propagate through a component. The propagation
delay to a logic low output may differ from the propagation
delay to a logic high.

Pulse width distortion is the maximum difference between
these two propagation delay values and is an indication of how
accurately the input signal’s timing is preserved.

SYSTEM-LEVEL ESD CONSIDERATIONS AND
ENHANCEMENTS
System-level ESD reliability (for example, per IEC 61000-4-x)
is highly dependent on system design, which varies widely by
application. The ADuM344x incorporate many enhancements
to make ESD reliability less dependent on system design. The
enhancements include the following:
ESD protection cells added to all input/output interfaces.
Key metal trace resistances reduced using wider geometry
and paralleling of lines with vias.
The SCR effect inherent in CMOS devices is minimized by
the use of guarding and isolation techniques between
PMOS and NMOS devices.
Areas of high electric field concentration eliminated using
45° corners on metal traces.
Supply pin overvoltage prevented with larger ESD clamps
between each supply pin and its respective ground.
While the ADuM344x improve system-level ESD reliability,
they are no substitute for a robust system-level design. See the
AN-793 application note, ESD/Latch-Up Considerations with iCoupler Isolation Products for detailed recommendations on
board layout and system-level design.
DC CORRECTNESS AND MAGNETIC FIELD IMMUNITY
Positive and negative logic transitions at the isolator input cause
narrow (~1 ns) pulses to be sent to the decoder via the transformer.
The decoder is bistable and is, therefore, either set or reset by
the pulses, indicating input logic transitions. In the absence of
logic transitions at the input for more than ~1 μs, a periodic set
of refresh pulses indicative of the correct input state are sent to
ensure dc correctness at the output. If the decoder receives no
internal pulses of more than about 5 μs, the input side is assumed
unpowered or nonfunctional, in which case the isolator output
is forced to a default state (see the Absolute Maximum Ratings
section) by the watchdog timer circuit.
The limitation on the magnetic field immunity of the ADuM344x
is set by the condition in which induced voltage in the receiving
coil of the transformer is sufficiently large to either falsely set or
reset the decoder. The following analysis defines the conditions
under which this can occur. The 3 V operating condition of the
ADuM344x is examined because it represents the most susceptible
mode of operation.
The pulses at the transformer output have an amplitude greater
than 1.0 V. The decoder has a sensing threshold at about 0.5 V,
thus establishing a 0.5 V margin in which induced voltages can
be tolerated.

The voltage induced across the receiving coil is given by
V = (−dβ/dt)∑ πr
where:
β is magnetic flux density (gauss).
N is the number of turns in the receiving coil.
r
is the radius of the nth turn in the receiving coil (cm).
n
Given the geometry of the receiving coil in the ADuM344x and
an imposed requirement that the induced voltage be at most
50% of the 0.5 V margin at the decoder, a maximum allowable
magnetic field is calculated as shown in Figure 18.

Figure 18. Maximum Allowable External Magnetic Flux Density
For example, at a magnetic field frequency of 1 MHz, the
maximum allowable magnetic field of 0.2 kgauss induces a
voltage of 0.25 V at the receiving coil. This is about 50% of the
sensing threshold and does not cause a faulty output transition.
Similarly, if such an event were to occur during a transmitted
pulse (and was of the worst-case polarity), it would reduce the
received pulse from >1.0 V to 0.75 V—still well above the 0.5 V
sensing threshold of the decoder.
The preceding magnetic flux density values correspond to
specific current magnitudes at given distances from the
ADuM344x transformers. Figure 19 expresses these allowable
current magnitudes as a function of frequency for selected
distances. As shown, the ADuM344x is extremely immune
and can be affected only by extremely large currents operated
at high frequency very close to the component. For the 1 MHz
example noted, one would have to place a 0.5 kA current 5 mm
away from the ADuM344x to affect the component’s operation.

for Various Current-to-ADuM344x Spacings
Note that at combinations of strong magnetic field and high
frequency, any loops formed by printed circuit board traces
could induce error voltages sufficiently large enough to trigger
the thresholds of succeeding circuitry. Care should be taken in
the layout of such traces to avoid this possibility.

All insulation structures eventually break down when subjected
to voltage stress over a sufficiently long period. The rate of
insulation degradation is dependent on the characteristics of
the voltage waveform applied across the insulation. In addition
to the testing performed by the regulatory agencies, Analog
Devices carries out an extensive set of evaluations to determine
the lifetime of the insulation structure within the ADuM344x.
Analog Devices performs accelerated life testing using voltage levels
higher than the rated continuous working voltage. Acceleration
factors for several operating conditions are determined. These
factors allow calculation of the time to failure at the actual working
voltage. The values shown in Figure 20 summarize the peak voltage
for 50 years of service life for a bipolar ac operating condition, and
the maximum CSA/VDE approved working voltages. In many
cases, the approved working voltage is higher than the 50-year
service life voltage. Operation at these high working voltages
can lead to shortened insulation life in some cases.
The insulation lifetime of the ADuM344x depends on the
voltage waveform type imposed across the isolation barrier.
The iCoupler insulation structure degrades at different rates
depending on whether the waveform is bipolar ac, unipolar ac,
or dc. Figure 20, Figure 21, and Figure 22 illustrate these
different isolation voltage waveforms.
Bipolar ac voltage is the most stringent environment. The goal
of a 50-year operating lifetime under the ac bipolar condition
determines the maximum working voltage recommended by
Analog Devices.
In the case of unipolar ac or dc voltage, the stress on the insulation
is significantly lower, which allows operation at higher working
voltages while still achieving a 50-year service life. The working
voltages listed in Tabl e 10 can be applied while maintaining the
50-year minimum lifetime provided the voltage conforms to
either the unipolar ac or dc voltage cases. Any cross insulation
voltage waveform that does not conform to Figure 21 or Figure 22
should be treated as a bipolar ac waveform and its peak voltage
should be limited to the 50-year lifetime voltage value listed in
Table 10.
Note that the voltage presented in Figure 21 is shown as sinusoidal
for illustration purposes only. It is meant to represent any voltage
waveform varying between 0 V and some limiting value. The
limiting value can be positive or negative, but the voltage cannot
cross 0 V.
