GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADuM3470/ADuM3471/ADuM3472/ADuM3473/
ADuM3474 devices1 are quad-channel digital isolators with an
integrated PWM controller and transformer driver for an isolated
dc-to-dc converter. Based on the Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler®
technology, the dc-to-dc converter provides up to 2 W of regulated,
isolated power at 3.3 V to 24 V from a 5.0 V input supply or from
a 3.3 V supply. This eliminates the need for a separate, isolated
dc-to-dc converter in 2 W isolated designs. The iCoupler chip scale
transformer technology is used to isolate the logic signals, and the
integrated transformer driver with isolated secondary side control
provides higher efficiency for the isolated dc-to-dc converter. The
result is a small form factor, total isolation solution. The ADuM347x
isolators provide four independent isolation channels in a variety of
channel configurations and data rates (see the Ordering Guide).
