Key Differentiators
- iCoupler technology provides superior performance over optocouplers (vs Optocoupler-based isolators)
- High CMTI of 25 kV/Β΅s (vs ADUM1201CRZ (also 25 kV/Β΅s))
- Automotive-grade variant available (vs ADUM1201BRZ (non-automotive))
Design Notes
For optimal isolation performance, maintain a clear area under the SOIC-8 package, free from copper traces or ground planes. This reduces parasitic capacitance and improves high-voltage isolation. Place decoupling capacitors (0.1Β΅F) close to VDD1 and VDD2 pins to ensure stable operation.
Keep the isolation barrier (the gap between side 1 and side 2) free of any traces or components. This ensures the rated isolation voltage is maintained. Route high-voltage traces away from the isolator to avoid coupling noise. Use proper creepage and clearance distances as per safety standards.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings for supply voltage (7V) or input/output voltages. Ensure that the input signals do not exceed the supply voltage. Also, avoid floating inputs; connect unused inputs to ground or supply to prevent undefined states.
