Key Differentiators
- Higher isolation voltage than ADUM3220ARZ-RL7 (vs ADUM3220ARZ-RL7)
- Dead-time control feature (vs ADUM3220ARZ-RL7)
- Wide-body SOIC package for better creepage (vs ADUM3220ARZ-RL7)
Design Notes
Place decoupling capacitors (0.1 uF and 10 uF) close to VDD1 and VDD2 pins to ensure stable supply voltages. Use a solid ground plane for GND1 and GND2 to minimize noise. Keep the gate drive loop (output pins to MOSFET gate) as short as possible to reduce parasitic inductance.
The ADUM4220ARWZ-RL7 dissipates power mainly during switching. Ensure adequate copper area on the PCB for heat dissipation, especially when driving large gate charges at high frequencies. The thermal resistance of the SOIC-W package is moderate; consider adding thermal vias if operating near maximum ratings.
Do not exceed the absolute maximum supply voltage of 18 V on VDD1 or VDD2. Ensure the dead-time control pin is properly configured to prevent shoot-through in half-bridge topologies. Verify that the input signals are within the recommended logic levels to avoid false triggering.
