ADuM5230
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
THEORY OF OPERATION
The dc-to-dc converter section of the ADuM5230 works on
principles that are common to most modern power supply
designs. It is implemented as an open-loop PWM controller,
which sets the power level being transferred to the secondary.
V
current into a chip-scale air core transformer. On the secondary
side, power is rectified to a dc voltage. The voltage is then
clamped to approximately 18 V and provided to the secondary
side V
output voltage is unregulated and varies with load.
The PWM duty cycle is set by internal bias elements, but can be
controlled externally through the V
resistor network. This feature allows the user to boost the
available power at the secondary, or reduce excess power if it is
not required for the application (see the Power Consumption
section).
Undervoltage lockouts are provided on the V
supply lines to interlock the data channels from low supply
voltages.
PC BOARD LAYOUT
The ADuM5230 digital isolator with a 150 mW isoPower™
integrated dc-to-dc converter requires no external interface
circuitry for the logic interfaces. Power supply bypassing is
required at the input and output supply pins (see Figure 15).
The power supply section of the ADuM5230 uses a very high
oscillator frequency to pass power efficiently through its chip
scale transformers. In addition, the normal operation of the
data section of the iCoupler® introduces switching transients on
the power supply pins. Bypass capacitors are required for
several operating frequencies. Noise suppression requires a low
inductance high frequency capacitor; ripple suppression and
proper regulation require a large value capacitor. These are most
conveniently connected between Pin 1 and Pin 2 for V
between Pin 15 and Pin 14 for V
reduce ripple, a parallel combination of at least two capacitors is
required. The recommended capacitor values are 0.1 μF and
10 μF. It is strongly recommended that a very low inductance
ceramic or equivalent capacitor be used for the smaller value.
The total lead length between both ends of the capacitor and
the input power supply pin should not exceed 20 mm.
Bypassing with noise suppression and stiffening capacitors is
recommended between Pin 1 and Pin 2, a bypass capacitor is
recommended between Pin 7 and Pin 8. Bypassing with noise
suppression and stiffening capacitors is recommended between
Pin 14 and Pin 15.

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 may
cause voltage differentials between pins exceeding the absolute
maximum ratings specified in Table 6, leading to latch-up
and/or permanent damage.
The ADuM5230 is a power device that dissipates about 1 W of
power when fully loaded and run at maximum speed. Because it
is not possible to apply a heat sink to an isolation device, the device
primarily depends on heat dissipation into the PCB through the
GND pins. If the device is used at high ambient temperatures,
care should be taken to provide a thermal path from the GND
pins to the PCB ground plane. The board layout in Figure 15
shows enlarged pads for Pin 1 and Pin 8. Multiple vias should
be implemented from the pad to the ground plane. This signifi-
cantly reduces the temperatures inside the chip. The dimensions
of the expanded pads are left to the discretion of the designer
and the available board space.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
The ADuM5230 part consists of several internal die attached to
three lead frames, each with a die attach paddle. For the purposes
of thermal analysis, the device is treated as a thermal unit with
the highest junction temperature reflected in the θ
shown in Table 2. The value of θ
taken with the part mounted on a JEDEC standard four-layer
board with fine width traces and still air. Under normal operating
conditions, the ADuM5230 operates at full load across the full
temperature range without derating the output current.
However, following the recommendations in the PC Board
Layout section decreases the thermal resistance to the PCB,
allowing increased thermal margin in high ambient
temperatures.
Under output short-circuit conditions, as shown in Figure 12,
the package power dissipation is within safe operating limits;
however, if the load is in the 100 Ω range, power dissipation is
high enough to cause thermal damage when the ambient tempera-
ture is above 80°C. Care should be taken to avoid excessive
nonshort loads if the part is to be operated at high temperatures.
