APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PC BOARD LAYOUT
PROPAGATION DELAY-RELATED PARAMETERS
The ADuM3100 digital isolator requires no external interface
circuitry for the logic interfaces. A bypass capacitor is
recommended at the input and output supply pins. The input
bypass capacitor can conveniently connect between Pin 3 and
Pin 4 (see Figure 12). Alternatively, the bypass capacitor can be
located between Pin 1 and Pin 4. The output bypass capacitor
can be connected between Pin 7 and Pin 8 or Pin 5 and Pin 8.
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
power supply pins should not exceed 20 mm.
Propagation delay time describes the length of time it takes for a
logic signal to propagate through a component. Propagation
delay time to logic low output and propagation delay time to
logic high output refer to the duration between an input signal
transition and the respective output signal transition
(see Figure 13).

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 ADuM3100 incorporates many enhancements
to make ESD reliability less dependent on system design. The
enhancements include
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 minimized by
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 ADuM3100 improves system-level ESD reliability, it
is no substitute for a robust system-level design. See the AN-1109
Application Note, ESD/Latch-Up Considerations with iCoupler
Isolation Products for detailed recommendations on board
layout and system-level design.
VI
Pulse-width distortion is the maximum difference between tPLH
and tPHL and provides an indication of how accurately the input
signal timing is preserved in the component output signal.
Propagation delay skew is the difference between the minimum
and maximum propagation delay values among multiple
ADuM3100 components operated at the same operating
temperature and having the same output load.
Depending on the input signal rise/fall time, the measured
propagation delay based on the input 50% level can vary from
the true propagation delay of the component (as measured from
its input switching threshold). This is due to the fact that the
input threshold, as is the case with commonly used optocouplers,
is at a different voltage level than the 50% point of typical input
signals. This propagation delay difference is
ΔLH = t'PLH − tPLH = (tr/0.8 VI)(0.5 V1 − VITH (L-H))
ΔHL = t'PHL − tPHL = (tf/0.8 VI)(0.5 V1 − VITH (H-L))
where:
tPLH, tPHL are propagation delays as measured from the input
50%.
t'PLH, t'PHL are propagation delays as measured from the input
switching thresholds.
tr, tf are input 10% to 90% rise/fall time.
VI is the amplitude of input signal (0 V to VI levels assumed).
VITH (L–H), VITH (H–L) are input switching thresholds.

METHOD OF OPERATION, DC CORRECTNESS, AND
MAGNETIC FIELD IMMUNITY
Referring to Figure 1, the two coils act as a pulse transformer.
Positive and negative logic transitions at the isolator input
cause narrow (2 ns) pulses to be sent via the transformer to the
decoder. The decoder is bistable and 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
update pulse of the appropriate polarity is sent to ensure dc
correctness at the output. If the decoder does not receive any of
these update pulses for more than approximately 5 μs, the input
side is assumed unpowered or nonfunctional, in which case the
isolator output is forced to a logic high state by the watchdog
timer circuit.

Input Fall Time Variation (for VDD1 = 3.3 V and 5 V)
The impact of the slower input edge rates can also affect the
measured pulse-width distortion as based on the input 50%
level. This impact can either increase or decrease the apparent
pulse-width distortion depending on the relative magnitudes of
tPHL, tPLH, and PWD. The case of interest here is the condition
that leads to the largest increase in pulse-width distortion. The
change in this case is given by
ΔPWD = PWDʹ − PWD = ΔLH − ΔHL =
(t/0.8 V1)(V − VITH (L-H) − VITH (H-L)), (for t = tr = tf)
where:
PWD = |tPLH − tPHL|.
PWDʹ = |t'PLH − t'PHL|.
This adjustment in pulse-width distortion is plotted as a
function of input rise/fall time in Figure 17.
The limitation on the ADuM3100 magnetic field immunity
is set by the condition in which induced voltage in the
transformer-receiving coil is sufficiently large to either falsely
set or reset the decoder. The analysis that follows defines the
conditions under which this can occur. The ADuM3100 3.3 V
operating condition is examined because it represents the most
susceptible mode of operation.
The pulses at the transformer output are greater than 1.0 V in
amplitude. The decoder has sensing thresholds 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
V = (−dβ/dt) ∑π rn2, n = 1, 2, . . . , N
where:
β is magnetic flux density (gauss).
N is the number of turns in the receiving coil.
rn is the radius of nth turn in the receiving coil (cm).

MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE CURRENT (kA)
Given the geometry of the receiving coil in the ADuM3100 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.

MAGNETIC FIELD FREQUENCY (Hz)
Figure 18. Maximum Allowable External Magnetic Field
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 had the worst-case polarity), it reduces 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 ADuM3100 transformers. Figure 19 shows the allowable
current magnitudes as a function of frequency for selected
distances. As shown, the ADuM3100 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 noted, a current of 0.5 kA would have to be placed
5 mm away from the ADuM3100 to affect the component’s
operation.
Note that at combinations of strong magnetic field and high
frequency, any loops formed by printed circuit board traces
could induce sufficiently large error voltages to trigger the
thresholds of succeeding circuitry. Care should be taken in
the layout of such traces to avoid this possibility.
POWER CONSUMPTION
The supply current of the ADuM3100 isolator is a function of
the supply voltage, the input data rate, and the output load.
The input supply current is given by
IDDI = IDDI (Q)
f ≤ 0.5fr
IDDI = IDDI (D) × (2f − fr) + IDDI (Q)
f > 0.5fr
The output 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 output load capacitance (pF).
VDDO is the output supply voltage (V).
f is the input logic signal frequency (MHz, half of 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).
