The ADuM1210 1 is a dual-channel, digital isolator based on
Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology. Combining high
speed CMOS and monolithic transformer technology, this
isolation component provides 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 concerns of the typical optocoupler 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 iCoupler products. Furthermore,
iCoupler devices consume one-tenth to one-sixth the power of
optocouplers at comparable signal data rates.
The ADuM1210 isolator provides two independent isolation
channels operable with the supply voltage on either side,
ranging from 2.7 V to 5.5 V. This provides compatibility with
lower voltage systems and enables voltage translation
functionality across the isolation barrier. In addition, the
ADuM1210 provides low pulse width distortion ( 0.8 VDD2. CML is the maximum common-mode voltage slew rate
that can be sustained while maintaining VO < 0.8 V. The common-mode voltage slew rates apply to both rising and falling common-mode voltage edges. The transient
magnitude is the range over which the common mode is slewed.

Dynamic supply current is the incremental amount of supply current required for a 1 Mbps increase in the signal data rate. See Figure 4 through Figure 6 for
information on per-channel supply current as a function of data rate for unloaded and loaded conditions. See the Power Consumption section for guidance on
calculating per-channel supply current for a given data rate.

The supply current values are for both channels combined when running at identical data rates. Output supply current values are specified with no output load
present. The supply current associated with an individual channel operating at a given data rate can be calculated as described in the Power Consumption section. See
Figure 4 through Figure 6 for information on per-channel supply current as a function of data rate for unloaded and loaded conditions. See Figure 7 and Figure 8 for
total VDD1 and VDD2 supply currents as a function of data rate.

The minimum pulse width is the shortest pulse width at which the specified pulse width distortion is guaranteed.
3
The maximum data rate is the fastest data rate at which the specified pulse width distortion is guaranteed.
4
tPHL propagation delay is measured from the 50% level of the falling edge of the VIx signal to the 50% level of the falling edge of the VOx signal. tPLH propagation delay is
measured from the 50% level of the rising edge of the VIx signal to the 50% level of the rising edge of the VOx signal.
5
tPSK is the magnitude of the worst-case difference in tPHL and/or tPLH that is measured between units at the same operating temperature, supply voltages, and output
load within the recommended operating conditions.
6
Codirectional channel-to-channel matching is the absolute value of the difference in propagation delays between any two channels with inputs on the same side of
the isolation barrier. Opposing-directional channel-to-channel matching is the absolute value of the difference in propagation delays between any two channels with
inputs on opposing sides of the isolation barrier.
7
CMH is the maximum common-mode voltage slew rate that can be sustained while maintaining VO > 0.8 VDD2. CML is the maximum common-mode voltage slew rate
that can be sustained while maintaining VO < 0.8 V. The common-mode voltage slew rates apply to both rising and falling common-mode voltage edges. The transient
magnitude is the range over which the common mode is slewed.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PC BOARD LAYOUT
The ADuM1210 digital isolator requires no external interface
circuitry for the logic interfaces. Power supply bypassing is
strongly recommended at the input and output supply pins. The
capacitor value should be between 0.01 μF and 0.1 μF. The total
lead length between both ends of the capacitor and the input
power supply pin should not exceed 20 mm.
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 can differ from the propagation
delay to a logic high output.
where:
β is the magnetic flux density (gauss).
rn is the radius of the nth turn in the receiving coil (cm).
N is the number of turns in the receiving coil.
Given the geometry of the receiving coil in the ADuM1210 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 10.
50%
tPHL

Figure 9. Propagation Delay Parameters
Pulse width distortion is the maximum difference between the
two propagation delay values and is an indication of how
accurately the input signal’s timing is preserved.
Channel-to-channel matching refers to the maximum amount
that the propagation delay differs between channels within a
single ADuM1210 component.

MAGNETIC FIELD FREQUENCY (Hz)

INPUT (VIx)
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,
therefore establishing a 0.5 V margin in which induced voltages
can be tolerated. The voltage induced across the receiving coil is
given by
Figure 10. Maximum Allowable External Magnetic Flux Density
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 of more than ~1 μs at the input, a periodic set of
refresh pulses indicative of the correct input state is sent to
ensure dc correctness at the output. If the decoder receives no
internal pulses for more than about 5 μs, the input side is
assumed to be unpowered or nonfunctional, in which case the
isolator output is forced to a default state (see Table 12) by the
watchdog timer circuit.
The ADuM1210 is extremely immune to external magnetic
fields. The limitation on the ADuM1210 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 can occur. The 3 V operating
condition of the ADuM1210 is examined because it represents
the most susceptible mode of operation.
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 occurred during a transmitted pulse
(and had 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 away from the
ADuM1210 transformers. Figure 11 expresses these allowable
current magnitudes as a function of frequency for selected
distances. As seen in Figure 11, the ADuM1210 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, a 0.5 kA current would have to be
placed 5 mm away from the ADuM1210 to affect the
component’s operation.

To calculate the total IDD1 and IDD2 supply current, the supply
currents for each input and output channel corresponding to
IDD1 and IDD2 are calculated and totaled. Figure 4 and Figure 5
show per-channel supply currents as a function of data rate for
an unloaded output condition. Figure 6 shows per-channel

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.
POWER CONSUMPTION
The supply current at a given channel of the ADuM1210
isolator is a function of the supply voltage, the channel data rate,
and the channel output load.
For each input channel, the supply current is given by
IDDI = IDDI (Q)
f ≤ 0.5fr
IDDI = IDDI (D) × (2f − fr) + IDDI (Q)
f > 0.5fr
For each output channel, the supply current is given by
IDDO = IDDO (Q)
f ≤ 0.5fr
−3
IDDO = (IDDO (D) + (0.5 × 10 ) × CLVDDO) × (2f − fr) + IDDO (Q)
f > 0.5fr
where:
IDDI (D), IDDO (D) are the input and output dynamic supply currents
per channel (mA/Mbps).
CL is the output load capacitance (pF).
VDDO is the output supply voltage (V).
f is the input logic signal frequency (MHz, half the input data
rate, NRZ signaling).
fr is the input stage refresh rate (Mbps).
IDDI (Q), IDDO (Q) are the specified input and output quiescent
supply currents (mA).
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 ADuM1210.
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 Table 10
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 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 ADuM1210 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 12, Figure 13, and Figure 14 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 Analog Devices recommended maximum
working voltage.

Data Sheet
Note that the voltage presented in Figure 13 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.

In the case of unipolar ac or dc voltage, the stress on the
insulation is significantly lower. This allows operation at higher
working voltages while still achieving a 50-year service life. The
working voltages listed in Table 10 can be applied while maintaining the 50-year minimum lifetime provided the voltage
conforms to either the unipolar ac or dc voltage case. Any crossinsulation voltage waveform that does not conform to Figure 13
or Figure 14 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.
