GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADuM6420A/ADuM6421A/ADuM6422A1 are quad-channel
digital isolators with an isoPower®, integrated, isolated dc-to-dc
converter. Based on the Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler®
technology, the dc-to-dc converter provides regulated, isolated
power that meets CISPR 32/EN 55032 Class B limits at a full
load on a 2-layer printed circuit board (PCB) with ferrites.
Popular voltage combinations and the associated output
current levels are listed in Table 1.
The ADuM6420A/ADuM6421A/ADuM6422A isolators
provide four independent isolation channels (see the Pin
Configurations and Function Descriptions for additional
information).

The ADuM6420A/ADuM6421A/ADuM6422A eliminate the
need for a separate, isolated dc-to-dc converter in 500 mW,
isolated designs. The iCoupler chip scale transformer technology
is used for isolated logic signals and for the magnetic components
of the dc-to-dc converter. The result is a small form factor, total
isolation solution.
