Key Differentiators
- Integrated isolation in SOIC-16 package (vs ADUM3195BRQZ)
- Higher isolation voltage than ADUM3190WTRQZ (vs ADUM3190WTRQZ)
- Automotive grade option available (vs ADUM3196WARWZ)
Design Notes
For the ADUM3196ARWZ, maintain proper isolation spacing between primary and secondary sides on the PCB. Use a minimum creepage distance of 8 mm for reinforced isolation per IPC-2221. Place bypass capacitors (0.1 uF) close to VDD1 and VDD2 pins to ensure stable operation.
Keep the feedback network components (resistors and capacitors) close to the IN+ and IN- pins to minimize parasitic capacitance and noise pickup. Use a ground plane on the primary side, but avoid routing high-voltage traces under the device to prevent coupling.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum supply voltage of 20V on either side. Ensure that the input voltage does not exceed the supply voltage to prevent latch-up. Also, verify that the output load does not exceed the device's drive capability, which is typically 1 mA.
Compliance Information
RoHS compliant per Analog Devices. Not AEC-Q100 qualified; use ADUM3196WARWZ for automotive.
