Key Differentiators

  • iCoupler technology with monolithic air core transformers (vs ISOUSB211)
  • Wide-body SOIC package for enhanced creepage (vs ADUM3160BRWZ)
  • High CMTI of 25 kV/Β΅s (vs ADUM3160BRWZ)

Design Notes

Ensure that both VDD1 and VDD2 are within the specified range of 3.0V to 3.6V. Use 0.1 Β΅F decoupling capacitors close to each VDD pin to minimize noise. For full-speed USB, a 1 Β΅F capacitor on the VBUS side may be required.

Place the ADUM3160BRWZ-RL7 close to the USB connector to minimize trace length for D+ and D-. Maintain controlled impedance for USB lines (90 ohms differential) and avoid vias on these traces. Keep the isolation barrier clear of copper pour to maintain creepage distance.

Do not exceed the absolute maximum ratings for supply voltage or isolation voltage. Ensure that the SPD pin is correctly configured for low or full speed operation. Incorrect SPD settings can cause communication failures.
