The board follows best printed circuit board (PCB) design practices
for 4-layer boards, including a full power and ground plane on
each side of the isolation barrier. No other EMI or noise mitigation
design features are included on this board. In cases of very high
speed operation or when ultralow emissions are required, refer

EVALUATION BOARD CIRCUITRY
PCB EVALUATION GOALS
The EVAL-ADuM144xQSOP16-EBZ board is intended to
achieve the following goals:
•
•
•
•
Evaluate the full range of iCoupler data transfer functions
Power each side of the iCoupler isolator independently
Allow high differential voltage to be applied between the
two sides of the iCoupler isolator
Allow connecting easily to power and instrumentation
Although the evaluation board comes with the ADuM1441ARQZ
iCoupler digital isolator installed, the board is also compatible with
the ADuM1440ARQZ, ADuM1442ARQZ, ADuM1445ARQZ,
ADuM1446ARQZ, and ADuM1447ARQZ, and the user can substitute any of these components in place of the ADuM1441ARQZ.
CONNECTORS
The PCB provides support for three types of interconnections:
•
•
•
SMA edge-mounted connectors
Through-hole signal ground pairs
Terminal blocks for power connections
With these three options, both temporary and permanent
connections to the board can easily be made.
When coaxial connections are desired, SMA connector positions
are available for VDD1A, VDD1B, VDD2A, and VDD2B power supplies,
as well as all digital inputs and outputs. These SMA connector
positions are left unpopulated so that the user can customize
the connectors for a given application. Figure 2 shows examples of
installed SMA connectors; these connectors were chosen because
they are not only low profile and provide excellent mechanical
connections to the PCB but also support 50 Ω coaxial cabling.
Because most lab equipment is compatible with BNC connectors,
adaptors may be required to use some on-board connectors.
1) SCOPE PROBE
Power can be connected through the P1 and P2 terminal blocks or
can be wired directly to the PCB via the P13 and P14 throughhole connectors. Each through-hole pair provides a power ground
pair with the power on the Pin 1 hole. The pin spacing of each
through-hole connector is 200 mil between centers. This matches
the pin spacing required for Tektronix active scope probes. If a
scope probe connection is desired, the header shown in Figure 2
can be soldered into the through-hole positions, and the signal pin
can be trimmed to match the height requirements of a Tektronix
active scope probe.
POWER INPUT
Each side of the ADuM1440ARQZ/ADuM1441ARQZ/
ADuM1442ARQZ/ADuM1445ARQZ/ADuM1446ARQZ/
ADuM1447ARQZ iCoupler isolator requires an off-board power
source. Each power source must be independent if common-mode
voltages are to be applied across the isolation barrier. Sharing a
single supply for both sides of the part across the isolation barrier
does not harm the isolator, and it is useful for functional testing
of the ADuM1440ARQZ/ADuM1441ARQZ/ADuM1442ARQZ/
ADuM1445ARQZ/ADuM1446ARQZ/ADuM1447ARQZ iCoupler
isolator when common-mode voltages are not present. If commonmode voltages are to be applied across the isolation barrier,
independent power supplies must be provided for each side of
the isolator.
A ground plane and a power plane are present on Layer 2 and
Layer 3 of the PCB on each side of the isolation barrier. Power
connects to VDD1A and VDD1B for Side 1 and connects to VDD2A
and VDD2B for Side 2. The A and B power pins on each side
cannot be powered separately.
DATA I/O STRUCTURES
Each data channel has a variety of structures to help configure,
load, and monitor both the input and output. Figure 3 shows one
of the datapaths from an external connection to the DUT pin.
Each channel has similar connections.
Starting at the external connection, the signal path is

A pad layout for a PCB board edge-mounted SMA
connector.
Two 0805 pads are provided where 100 Ω resistors to
ground can be installed. The combined resistance is 50 Ω
to provide a termination for a standard coaxial cable.
A standard 0805 pad layout that allows the coaxial and
termination structures to be connected to the rest of the
signal path.
A 0603 pad layout between the signal path and VDDxA or
VDDxB can be used for installing a pull-up resistor.
A populated 2-pin header provides a signal ground pair
that can be used for clip leads or for shorting a channel to
ground temporarily.
There are groupings of three open through holes, consisting
of a signal and two ground connections. These holes can be
used for hardwiring signal wires into the PCB, installing a

the power connectors to compensate for long cables to the
power supply. Parallel bypass capacitors are installed near the
ADuM1441ARQZ and consist of a 0.1 µF capacitor for each
VDDxA on the top side and bottom side and a 0.1 µF capacitor
for each VDDxB on the bottom side of the board. It is best to use
the top side bypass positions if possible.
header to accept a Tektronix active probe, or installing a
2-pin header to allow adjacent channels to temporarily be
shorted together.
A 0805 pad layout between the signal and ground where a
load capacitor or resistor can be installed.
Pads to the adjacent channels are provided to allow permanent
connection of adjacent channels. Inputs can be fanned out
to several channels, or inputs and outputs can be connected
together to allow signals to loopback.
The PCB also implements a distributed capacitive bypass on the
PCB. This consists of power and ground planes closely spaced
on the inner layers of the PCB. This minimizes noise and the
transmission of EMI without using complex design features.
Figure 2 shows many of the optional components installed, as well
as how jumpers can be used to temporarily connect channels.
This figure shows a signal connected to the first channel SMA
and then fanned out to the top three channels and monitored by
an active scope probe.
HIGH VOLTAGE CAPABILITY
This PCB is designed in adherence with 2500 V basic insulation
practices. High voltage testing beyond 2500 V is not recommended.
Appropriate care must be taken when using this evaluation board
at high voltages, and the PCB should not be relied on for safety
functions because it has not been high potential tested (also
known as hipot tested or dielectric withstanding voltage tested)
or certified for safety.
BYPASS ON THE PCB
Several positions and structures are provided to allow optimum
bypass of the evaluation board. Provision has been made for
optional surface-mount bulk capacitors to be installed near
