TYPICAL APPLICATION DIAGRAM
Figure 9 shows a typical application circuit including the pull-up
resistors required for both Side 1 and Side 2 busses. Bypass capacitors
of between 0.1 μF and 0.01 μF are required between V

can be between 105°C and 125°C.
MAGNETIC FIELD IMMUNITY
The ADuM125x is extremely immune to external magnetic
fields. The limitation on the ADuM125x magnetic field immunity
is set by the condition in which induced voltage in the transformer’s
receiving coil is sufficiently large to either falsely set or reset the
decoder. The following analysis defines the conditions under which
this may occur. The 3 V operating condition of the ADuM125x
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
where:
β is the magnetic flux density (gauss).
N is the number of turns in the receiving coil.
r
Given the geometry of the receiving coil in the ADuM1250 and
an imposed requirement that the induced voltage is at most 50%
of the 0.5 V margin at the decoder, a maximum allowable
magnetic field is calculated, as shown in Figure 10.

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 occurs during a transmitted pulse (with
the worst-case polarity), it reduces the received pulse from >1.0 V
to 0.75 V. Note that this is 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 away from the
ADuM125x transformers. Figure 11 expresses these allowable
current magnitudes as a function of frequency for selected
distances. As shown in Figure 11, the ADuM125x is extremely
immune and can be affected only by extremely large currents
operated at high frequency and very close to the component.
For the 1 MHz example, one would have to place a 0.5 kA
current 5 mm away from the ADuM125x to affect the
component’s operation.
Note that at combinations of strong magnetic fields and high
frequencies, any loops formed by printed circuit board traces
can induce sufficiently large error voltages to trigger the threshold
of succeeding circuitry. Care should be taken in the layout of
such traces to avoid this possibility.
