The ADuM4135 is a single-channel gate driver specifically
optimized for driving insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs).
Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology provides isolation
between the input signal and the output gate drive.
The ADuM4135 includes a Miller clamp to provide robust
IGBT turn-off with a single-rail supply when the gate voltage
drops below 2 V. Operation with unipolar or bipolar secondary
supplies is possible, with or without the Miller clamp operation.
The Analog Devices chip scale transformers also provide
isolated communication of control information between the
high voltage and low voltage domains of the chip. Information
on the status of the chip can be read back from dedicated
outputs. Control of resetting the device after a fault on the
secondary is performed on the primary side of the device.
Integrated onto the ADuM4135 is a desaturation detection
circuit that provides protection against high voltage shortcircuit IGBT operation. The desaturation protection contains
noise reducing features such as a 300 ns masking time after a
switching event to mask voltage spikes due to initial turn-on.
An internal 500 µA current source allows low device count and
the internal blanking switch allows the addition of an external
current source if more noise immunity is needed.
APPLICATIONS
MOSFET/IGBT gate drivers
PV inverters
Motor drives
Power supplies
The secondary UVLO is set to 11 V with common IGBT
threshold levels taken into consideration.

The minimum pulse width is the shortest pulse width at which the specified timing parameter is guaranteed.
See the Power Dissipation section.
tDLH propagation delay is measured from the time of the input rising logic high threshold, VIH, to the output rising 10% threshold of the VOUTx signal. tDHL propagation
delay is measured from the input falling logic low threshold, VIL, to the output falling 90% threshold of the VOUTx signal. See Figure 20 for waveforms of propagation
delay parameters.

tPSK is the magnitude of the worst case difference in tDLH and/or tDHL that is measured between units at the same operating temperature, supply voltages, and output
load within the recommended operating conditions. See Figure 20 for waveforms of propagation delay parameters.

Static common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) is defined as the largest dv/dt between VSS1 and VSS2, with inputs held either high or low, such that the output voltage
remains either above 0.8 × VDD2 for output high or 0.8 V for output low. Operation with transients above recommended levels can cause momentary data upsets.
6
Dynamic common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) is defined as the largest dv/dt between VSS1 and VSS2 with the switching edge coincident with the transient test
pulse. Operation with transients above recommended levels can cause momentary data upsets.

Description
Ground Reference for Primary Side.
Positive Logic CMOS Input Drive Signal.
Negative Logic CMOS Input Drive Signal.
Open-Drain Logic Output. Connect this pin to a pull-up resistor to read the signal. A high state on this pin
indicates that the device is functional and ready to operate as a gate driver. The presence of READY low
precludes the gate drive output from going high.
Open-Drain Logic Output. Connect this pin to a pull-up resistor to read the signal. A low state on this pin
indicates when a desaturation fault has occurred. The presence of a fault condition precludes the gate drive
output from going high.
CMOS Input. When a fault exists, bring this pin low to clear the fault.
Input Supply Voltage on Primary Side, 2.3 V to 5.5 V Referenced to VSS1.
Negative Supply for Secondary Side, −15 V to 0 V Referenced to GND2.
Detection of Desaturation Condition. Connect this pin to an external current source or a pull-up resistor. This
pin can allow NTC temperature detection or other fault conditions. A fault on this pin asserts a fault on the
FAULT pin on the primary side. Until the fault is cleared on the primary side, the gate drive is suspended.
During a fault condition, a smaller turn-off FET slowly brings the gate voltage down.
Ground Reference for Secondary Side. Connect this pin to the emitter of the IGBT or the source of the MOSFET
being driven.
Gate Drive Output Current Path for Off Signal.
Secondary Side Input Supply Voltage, 12 V to 30 V Referenced to GND2.
Gate Drive Output Current Path for On Signal.
Gate Voltage Sense Input and Miller Clamp Output. Connect this pin to the gate of the power device being
driven. This pin senses the gate voltage for the purpose of Miller clamping. When the Miller clamp is not used,
tie GATE_SENSE to VSS2.

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
PCB LAYOUT
The ADuM4135 IGBT gate driver requires no external interface
circuitry for the logic interfaces. Power supply bypassing is required
at the input and output supply pins. Use a small ceramic capacitor
with a value between 0.01 µF and 0.1 µF to provide a good high
frequency bypass. On the output power supply pin, VDD2, it is
recommended also to add a 10 µF capacitor to provide the charge
required to drive the gate capacitance at the ADuM4135 outputs.
On the output supply pin, avoid the use of vias on the bypass
capacitor or employ multiple vias to reduce the inductance in
the bypassing. The total lead length between both ends of the
smaller capacitor and the input or output power supply pin
must not exceed 5 mm.
PROPAGATION DELAY RELATED PARAMETERS
Propagation delay describes the time it takes a logic signal to
propagate through a component. The propagation delay to a low
output can differ from the propagation delay to a high output. The
ADuM4135 specifies tDLH as the time between the rising input
high logic threshold (VIH) to the output rising 10% threshold (see
Figure 20). Likewise, the falling propagation delay (tDHL) is defined
as the time between the input falling logic low threshold (VIL) and
the output falling 90% threshold. The rise and fall times are
dependent on the loading conditions and are not included in the
propagation delay, which is the industry standard for gate drivers.
While RESET remains held low, the output remains disabled. The
RESET pin has an internal, 300 kΩ pull-down resistor.
Desaturation Detection
Occasionally, component failures or faults occur with the
circuitry connected to the IGBT connected to the ADuM4135.
Examples include shorts in the inductor/motor windings or
shorts to power/ground buses. The resulting excess in current
flow causes the IGBT to come out of saturation. To detect this
condition and to reduce the likelihood of damage to the FET, a
threshold circuit is used on the ADuM4135. If the DESAT pin
exceeds the desaturation threshold (VDESAT, TH) of 9 V while the
high-side driver is on, the ADuM4135 enters the failure state
and turns the IGBT off. At this time, the FAULT pin is brought
low. An internal current source of 500 µA is provided, as well as
the option to boost the charging current using external current
sources or pull-up resistors. The ADuM4135 has a built-in
blanking time to prevent false triggering while the IGBT first
turns on. The time between desaturation detection and reporting
a desaturation fault to the FAULT pin is less than 2 µs (tREPORT).
Bring RESET low to clear the fault. There is a 500 ns debounce
(tDEB_RESET) on the RESET pin. The time, tDESAT_DELAY, shown in
Figure 21, provides a 300 ns masking time that keeps the internal
switch that grounds the blanking capacitor tied low for the
initial portion of the IGBT on time.

The ADuM4135 provides protection for faults that may occur
during the operation of an IGBT. The primary fault condition is
desaturation. If saturation is detected, the ADuM4135 shuts down
the gate drive and asserts FAULT low. The output remains disabled
until RESET is brought low for more than 500 ns, and is then
brought high. FAULT resets to high on the falling edge of RESET.
FAULT
Figure 21. Desaturation Detection Timing Diagram
Data Sheet
ADuM4135
In the case of a desaturation event, VCE rises above the 9 V
threshold in the desaturation detection circuit. If no RBLANK resistor
is used to increase the blanking current, the voltage on the blanking
capacitor, CBLANK, rises at a rate of 500 µA (typical) divided by the
CBLANK capacitance. Depending on the IGBT specifications, a
blanking time of approximately 2 µs is a typical design choice.
When the DESAT pin rises above the 9 V threshold, a fault
registers, and within 200 ns, the gate output drives low. The
output is brought low using the N-FET fault MOSFET, which
is approximately 50 times more resistive than the internal gate
driver N-FET, to perform a soft shutdown to reduce the chance
of an overvoltage spike on the IGBT during an abrupt turn-off
event. Within 2 µs, the fault is communicated back to the primary
side FAULT pin. To clear the fault, a reset is required.
Miller Clamp
The ADuM4135 has an integrated Miller clamp to reduce voltage
spikes on the IGBT gate caused by the Miller capacitance during
shut-off of the IGBT. When the input gate signal calls for the IGBT
to turn off (driven low), the Miller clamp MOSFET is initially
off. When the voltage on the GATE_SENSE pin crosses the 2 V
internal voltage reference, as referenced to VSS2, the internal
Miller clamp latches on for the remainder of the off time of the
IGBT, creating a second low impedance current path for the gate
current to follow. The Miller clamp switch remains on until the
input drive signal changes from low to high. An example waveform
of the timings is shown in Figure 22.

For the following design example, see the schematic shown in
Figure 28 along with the waveforms in Figure 21. Under normal
operation, during IGBT off times, the voltage across the IGBT,
VCE, rises to the rail voltage supplied to the system. In this case,
the blocking diode shuts off, protecting the ADuM4135 from
high voltages. During the off times, the internal desaturation
switch is on, accepting the current going through the RBLANK
resistor, which allows the CBLANK capacitor to remain at a low
voltage. For the first 300 ns of the IGBT on time, the DESAT
switch remains on, clamping the DESAT pin voltage low. After
the 300 ns delay time, the DESAT pin is released, and the DESAT
pin is allowed to rise towards VDD2 either by the internal current
source on the DESAT pin, or additionally with an optional external
pull-up, RBLANK, to increase the current drive if it is not clamped
by the collector or drain of the switch being driven. VRDESAT is
chosen to dampen the current at this time, usually selected around
100 Ω to 2 kΩ. Select the blocking diode to block above the
high rail voltage on the collector of the IGBT and to be a fast
recovery diode.
Figure 22. Miller Clamp Example
Thermal Shutdown
If the internal temperature of the ADuM4135 exceeds 155°C
(typical), the device enters thermal shutdown (TSD). During
the thermal shutdown time, the READY pin is brought low
on the primary side, and the gate drive is disabled. When
TSD occurs, the device does not leave TSD until the internal
temperature drops below 125°C (typical), at which time the
READY pin returns to high, and the device exits shutdown.
Undervoltage Lockout (UVLO) Faults
UVLO faults occur when the supply voltages are below the
specified UVLO threshold values. During a UVLO event on either
the primary side or secondary side, the READY pin goes low, and
the gate drive is disabled. When the UVLO condition is removed,
the device resumes operation, and the READY pin goes high.
READY Pin
The open-drain READY pin is an output that confirms
communication between the primary to secondary sides is
active. The READY pin remains high when there are no UVLO
or TSD events present. When the READY pin is low, the IGBT
gate is driven low.

FAULT Pin
Gate Resistance Selection
The open-drain FAULT pin is an output to communicate that a
desaturation fault has occurred. When the FAULT pin is low, the
IGBT gate is driven low. If a desaturation event occurs, the RESET
pin must be driven low for at least 500 ns, then high to return
operation to the IGBT gate drive.
The ADuM4135 provides two output nodes for the driving of
an IGBT. The benefit of this approach is that the user can select
two different series resistances for the turn-on and turn-off of
the IGBT. It is generally desired to have the turn-off occur faster
than the turn-on. To select the series resistance, decide what the
maximum allowed peak current is for the IGBT. Knowing the
voltage swing on the gate, as well as the internal resistance of
the gate driver, an external resistor can be chosen.
RESET Pin
The RESET pin has an internal 300 kΩ (typical) pull-down
resistor. The RESET pin accepts CMOS level logic. When the
RESET pin is held low, after a 500 ns debounce time, any faults
on the FAULT pin are cleared. While the RESET pin is held low,
the switch on VOUT_OFF is closed, bringing the gate voltage of the
IGBT low. When RESET is brought high, and no fault exists, the
device resumes operation.
<500ns
IPEAK = (VDD2 − VSS2)/(RDSON_N + RGOFF)
For example, if the turn-off peak current is 4 A, with a (VDD2 − VSS2)
of 18 V,
RGOFF = ((VDD2 − VSS2) − IPEAK × RDSON_N)/IPEAK
RGOFF = (18 V − 4 A × 0.6 Ω)/4 A = 3.9 Ω
After RGOFF is selected, a slightly larger RGON can be selected to
arrive at a slower turn-on time.

The ADuM4135 has two drive inputs, VI+ and VI−, to control
the IGBT gate drive signals, VOUT_ON and VOUT_OFF. Both the VI+
and VI− inputs use CMOS logic level inputs. The input logic of
the VI+ and VI− pins can be controlled by either asserting the
VI+ pin high or the VI− pin low. With the VI− pin low, the VI+ pin
accepts positive logic. If VI+ is held high, the VI− pin accepts
negative logic. If a fault is asserted, transmission is blocked
until the fault is cleared by the RESET pin.

During the driving of an IGBT gate, the driver must dissipate
power. This power is not insignificant and can lead to TSD if
considerations are not made. The gate of an IGBT can be roughly
simulated as a capacitive load. Due to Miller capacitance and other
nonlinearities, it is common practice to take the stated input
capacitance, CISS, of a given IGBT, and multiply it by a factor of
5 to arrive at a conservative estimate to approximate the load being
driven. With this value, the estimated total power dissipation in the
system due to switching action is given by
PDISS = CEST × (VDD2 − VSS2)2 × fS
where:
CEST = CISS × 5.
fS is the switching frequency of the IGBT.
This power dissipation is shared between the internal on
resistances of the internal gate driver switches and the external
gate resistances, RGON and RGOFF. The ratio of the internal gate
resistances to the total series resistance allows the calculation of
losses seen within the ADuM4135 chip.
PDISS_ADuM4135 = PDISS × 0.5(RDSON_P/(RGON + RDSON_P) +
RDSON_N/(RGOFF + RDSON_N))
Figure 24. VI+ and VI− Block Diagram
The minimum pulse width, PW, is the minimum period in
which the timing specifications are guaranteed.
Taking the power dissipation found inside the chip and
multiplying it by the θJA gives the rise above ambient temperature
that the ADuM4135 experiences.
TADuM4135 = θJA × PDISS_ADuM4135 + TAMB
For the device to remain within specification, TADUM4135 must
not exceed 125°C. If TADuM4135 exceeds 155°C (typical), the
device enters thermal shutdown.

DC CORRECTNESS AND MAGNETIC FIELD IMMUNITY
Surface Tracking
The ADuM4135 is resistant to external magnetic fields. The
limitation on the ADuM4135 magnetic field immunity is set by
the condition in which induced voltage in the transformer
receiving coil is sufficiently large to either falsely set or reset the
decoder. The following analysis defines the conditions under
which a false reading condition can occur. The 2.3 V operating
condition of the ADuM4135 is examined because it represents
the most susceptible mode of operation.
Surface tracking is addressed in electrical safety standards by
setting a minimum surface creepage based on the working
voltage, the environmental conditions, and the properties of the
insulation material. Safety agencies perform characterization
testing on the surface insulation of components that allows the
components to be categorized in different material groups.
Lower material group ratings are more resistant to surface
tracking and therefore can provide adequate lifetime with
smaller creepage. The minimum creepage for a given working
voltage and material group is in each system level standard and
is based on the total rms voltage across the isolation, pollution
degree, and material group. The material group and creepage
for the ADuM4135 isolator are presented in Table 8.

The lifetime of insulation caused by wear out is determined by
its thickness, material properties, and the voltage stress applied.
It is important to verify that the product lifetime is adequate at
the application working voltage. The working voltage supported
by an isolator for wear out may not be the same as the working
voltage supported for tracking. It is the working voltage
applicable to tracking that is specified in most standards.
Testing and modeling have shown that the primary driver of
long-term degradation is displacement current in the polyimide
insulation causing incremental damage. The stress on the
insulation can be broken down into broad categories, such as:
dc stress, which causes very little wear out because there is no
displacement current, and an ac component time varying
voltage stress, which causes wear out.
The ratings in certification documents are usually based on 60 Hz
sinusoidal stress because this stress reflects isolation from line
voltage. However, many practical applications have combinations
of 60 Hz ac and dc across the barrier as shown in Equation 1.
Because only the ac portion of the stress causes wear out, the
equation can be rearranged to solve for the ac rms voltage, as
shown in Equation 2. For insulation wear out with the polyimide
materials used in this product, the ac rms voltage determines
the product lifetime.
INSULATION LIFETIME
All insulation structures eventually break down when subjected
to voltage stress over a sufficiently long period. The rate of insulation degradation is dependent on the characteristics of the
voltage waveform applied across the insulation, as well as on the
materials and material interfaces.
Two types of insulation degradation are of primary interest:
breakdown along surfaces exposed to air and insulation wear
out. Surface breakdown is the phenomenon of surface tracking
and the primary determinant of surface creepage requirements
in system level standards. Insulation wear out is the phenomenon
where charge injection or displacement currents inside the
insulation material cause long-term insulation degradation.

Calculation and Use of Parameters Example
This working voltage of 466 V rms is used together with the
material group and pollution degree when looking up the
creepage required by a system standard.
The following is an example that frequently arises in power
conversion applications. Assume that the line voltage on one
side of the isolation is 240 V ac rms, and a 400 V dc bus voltage
is present on the other side of the isolation barrier. The isolator
material is polyimide. To establish the critical voltages in
determining the creepage clearance and lifetime of a device,
see Figure 27 and the following equations.
To determine if the lifetime is adequate, obtain the time varying
portion of the working voltage. The ac rms voltage can be obtained
from Equation 2.

In this case, ac rms voltage is simply the line voltage of 240 V rms.
This calculation is more relevant when the waveform is not
sinusoidal. The value of the ac waveform is compared to the
limits for working voltage in Table 8 for expected lifetime, less
than a 60 Hz sine wave, and it is well within the limit for a
20 year service life.
