GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADuM50001 is an isolated dc-to-dc converter based on the
Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology. The dc-to-dc converter
in this device provides regulated, isolated power in several combinations of input and output voltage as listed in Table 1.
The Analog Devices chip-scale transformer iCoupler technology
transfers isolated power in this dc-to-dc converter with up to
33% efficiency. The result is a small form factor, total isolation
solution.
Higher output power levels are obtained by using the ADuM5000
to augment the power output of ADuM5401, ADuM5402,
ADuM5403, ADuM5404, and ADuM520x iCouplers with
isoPower®.
1
isoPower uses high frequency switching elements to transfer
power through its transformer. Special care must be taken
during printed circuit board (PCB) layout to meet emissions
standards. Refer to the AN-0971 application note for board
layout recommendations.

Mnemonic Description
VDD1
Primary Supply Voltage 3.0 V to 5.5 V. Pin 1 and Pin 7 are internally connected to each other, and it is recommended
that both pins be externally connected to a common power source.
2, 8
GND1
Ground 1. Ground reference for the primary side of the converter. Pin 2 and Pin 8 are internally connected to each other,
and it is recommended that both pins be connected to a common ground.
3, 11, 12, 14 NC
No Internal Connection.
4
RCIN
Regulation Control Input. In slave power configuration (RCSEL = low), this pin is connected to the RCOUT of a master
isoPower device, or tied low to disable the converter. In master/standalone mode (RCSEL = high) this pin has no
function. This pin is weakly pulled to low. In noisy environments, it should be tied to low or to a PWM control
source. Note: This pin must not be tied high if RCSEL is low; this combination causes excessive voltage on the
secondary side of the converter, damaging the ADuM5000 and possibly the devices that it powers.
5
RCOUT
Regulation Control Output. In master power configuration, this pin is connected to the RCIN of a slave isoPower
device to allow the ADuM5000 to regulate additional devices.
6
RCSEL
Control Input. Sets either self-regulation/master mode (RCSEL high) or slave mode (RCSEL low). This pin is weakly
pulled to the high state. In noisy environments, tie this pin either high or low.
9, 15
GNDISO
Ground Reference for the Secondary Side of the Converter. Pin 9 and Pin 15 are internally connected to each other, and
it is recommended that both pins be connected to a common ground.
10, 16
VISO
Secondary Supply Voltage Output External Loads, 3.3 V (VSEL low) or 5.0 V (VSEL high). 5.0 V output functionality is
not guaranteed for a 3.3 V primary supply input. Pin 10 and Pin 16 are internally connected to each other, and
connecting both to GNDISO is recommended.
13
VSEL
Output Voltage Selection. When VSEL = VISO, the VISO set point is 5.0 V. When VSEL = GNDISO, the VISO set point is 3.3 V.
This pin is weakly pulled to high. In noisy environments, tie this pin either high or low. In slave regulation mode,
this pin has no function.

This configuration is not recommended.
Master mode operation, self regulating.
Slave mode operation, regulation from another isoPower part.
Low power mode, converter disabled.
Note: This combination of RCIN and RCSEL is prohibited. Damage occurs on the secondary
side of the converter due to excess output voltage at VISO. RCIN must be either low or a PWM
signal from a master isoPower part.
PWM refers to the regulation control signal. This signal is derived from the secondary side regulator or from the RCIN input, depending on the value of RCSEL.

ADuM5000
APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
The dc-to-dc converter section of the ADuM5000 works on
principles that are common to most switching power supplies.
It is a secondary side controller architecture with isolated pulsewidth modulation (PWM) feedback. VDD1 power is supplied to an
oscillating circuit that switches current into a chip-scale air core
transformer. Power transferred to the secondary side is rectified
and regulated to either 3.3 V or 5 V. The secondary (VISO) side
controller regulates the output by creating a PWM control signal
that is sent to the primary (VDD1) side by a dedicated iCoupler
data channel. The PWM modulates the oscillator circuit to control
the power being sent to the secondary side. Feedback allows for
significantly higher power and efficiency.
10 mm. Consider bypassing between Pin 1 and Pin 8 and
between Pin 9 and Pin 16 unless both of the common ground
pins are connected together close to the package.
The ADuM5000 provides a regulation control output (RCOUT)
signal that can be connected to other isoPower devices. This
feature allows a single regulator to control multiple power modules without contention. When auxiliary power modules are
present, the VISO pins can be connected together to work as a
single supply. Because there is only one feedback control path,
the supplies work together seamlessly. The ADuM5000 can be
a source of regulation control, as well as a being controlled by
another isoPower device.
In applications involving high common-mode transients, ensure
that board coupling across the isolation barrier is minimized. Furthermore, design the board layout such that any coupling that
does occur equally affects all pins on a given component side.
Failure to ensure this can cause voltage differentials between pins
exceeding the absolute maximum ratings for the device as specified
in Table 10, thereby leading to latch-up and/or permanent damage.
There is an undervoltage lockout with hysteresis in the VDD1
input protection circuit. When the input voltage rises above the
lockout threshold, the dc-to-dc converter becomes active. The
input voltage must be decreased below the turn-on threshold by
the hysteresis value to disable the converter. This feature has
many benefits in the power-up sequence of the converter, such
as it ensures that the system supply rises to a minimum level
before the ADuM5000 demands current. It also prevents any
voltage drop due to converter current from turning the supply
off and possibly oscillating.
PCB LAYOUT
The ADuM5000 digital isolator is a 0.5 W isoPower integrated
dc-to-dc converter requiring no external interface circuitry for
the logic interfaces. Power supply bypassing is required at the
input and output supply pins (see Figure 12). The power supply
section of the ADuM5000 uses a 180 MHz oscillator frequency
to pass power efficiently through its chip scale transformers. In
addition, the normal operation of the data section of the iCoupler
introduces switching transients on the power supply pins. Bypass
capacitors are required for several operating frequencies. Noise
suppression requires a low inductance, high frequency capacitor,
whereas ripple suppression and proper regulation require a large
value capacitor. These are most conveniently connected between
Pin 1 and Pin 2 for VDD1, and between Pin 15 and Pin 16 for VISO.
To suppress noise and reduce ripple, a parallel combination of
at least two capacitors is required. The recommended capacitor
values are 0.1 μF, and 10 μF. Best practice recommends using a
very low inductance ceramic capacitor, or its equivalent, for
the smaller value. The total lead length between both ends of
the capacitor and the input power supply pin should not exceed

Figure 12. Recommended PCB Layout
The ADuM5000 is a power device that dissipates about 1 W
of power when fully loaded. Because it is not possible to apply
a heat sink to an isolation device, the device primarily depends
on heat dissipation into the PCB through the GND pins. If the
device is used at high ambient temperatures, provide a thermal
path from the GND pins to the PCB ground plane. The board
layout in Figure 12 shows enlarged pads for Pin 2, Pin 8, Pin 9,
and Pin 15. Implement multiple vias from the pad to the ground
plane to significantly reduce the temperature inside the chip.
The dimensions of the expanded pads are at the discretion of
the designer and dependent on the available board space.
EMI CONSIDERATIONS
It is necessary for the dc-to-dc converter section of the ADuM5000
to operate at 180 MHz to allow efficient power transfer through
the small transformers. This creates high frequency currents that
can propagate in circuit board ground and power planes, causing
edge emissions and dipole radiation between the input and output
ground planes. Grounded enclosures are recommended for applications that use these devices. If grounded enclosures are not
possible, follow good RF design practices in the layout of the
PCB. See www.analog.com for the most current PCB layout
recommendations specifically for the ADuM5000.
THERMAL ANALYSIS
The ADuM5000 consists of four internal silicon die, attached to
a split lead frame with two die attach paddles. For the purposes
of thermal analysis, it is treated as a thermal unit with the highest
junction temperature reflected in the θJA from Table 5. The value
of θJA is based on measurements taken with the part mounted
on a JEDEC standard 4-layer board with fine width traces and
still air. Under normal operating conditions, the ADuM5000
operates at full load across the full temperature range without

derating the output current. However, following the recommendations in the PCB Layout section decreases the thermal resistance
to the PCB allowing increased thermal margin at high ambient
temperatures.
CURRENT LIMIT AND THERMAL OVERLOAD
PROTECTION
The ADuM5000 is protected against damage due to excessive
power dissipation by thermal overload protection circuits. Thermal
overload protection limits the junction temperature to a maximum
of 150°C (typical). Under extreme conditions (that is, high ambient temperature and power dissipation), when the junction
temperature starts to rise above 150°C, the PWM is turned off,
reducing the output current to zero. When the junction temperature drops below 130°C (typical), the PWM turns on again,
restoring the output current to its nominal value.
Consider the case where a hard short from VISO to ground
occurs. At first, the ADuM5000 reaches its maximum current,
which is proportional to the voltage applied at VDD1. Power
dissipates on the primary side of the converter (see Figure 7). If
self-heating of the junction becomes great enough to cause its
temperature to rise above 150°C, thermal shutdown activates,
turning off the PWM and reducing the output current to zero.
As the junction temperature cools and drops below 130°C, the
PWM turns on and power dissipates again on the primary side
of the converter, causing the junction temperature to rise to
150°C again. This thermal oscillation between 130°C and 150°C
causes the part to cycle on and off as long as the short remains
at the output.
Thermal limit protections are intended to protect the device
against accidental overload conditions. For reliable operation,
externally limit device power dissipation to prevent junction
temperatures from exceeding 130°C.
POWER CONSIDERATIONS
The ADuM5000 converter primary side is protected from premature operation by undervoltage lockout (UVLO) circuitry.
Below the minimum operating voltage, the power converter
holds its oscillator inactive.
When the primary side oscillator begins to operate, it transfers
power to the secondary power circuits. The secondary VISO voltage
starts below its UVLO limit making it inactive and unable to
generate a regulation control signal. The primary side power
oscillator is allowed to free run under this condition, supplying
the maximum amount of power to the secondary. As the sec-
ondary voltage rises to its regulation setpoint, a large inrush
current transient is present at VDD1. When the regulation point
is reached, the regulation control circuit produces the regulation
control signal that modulates the oscillator on the primary side.
The VDD1 current is then reduced and is proportional to the load
current. The inrush current is less than the short-circuit current
shown in Figure 7. The duration of the inrush depends on the
VISO loading conditions and the current and voltage available at
the VDD1 pin.
INCREASING AVAILABLE POWER
The ADuM5000 device is designed with the capability of
running in combination with other compatible isoPower devices.
The RCOUT, RCIN, and RCSEL pins allow the ADuM5000 to
provide its PWM signal to another device through the RCOUT
pin acting as a master. It can also receive a PWM signal from
another device through the RCIN pin and act as a slave to that
control signal. The RCSEL pin chooses whether the part acts as
a master or slave device. When the ADuM5000 is acting as a
slave, its power is regulated by the master device allowing multiple isoPower parts to be combined in parallel while sharing the
load equally. When the ADuM5000 is configured as a master/
standalone unit, it generates its own PWM feedback signal to
regulate itself and slave devices.
The ADuM5000 can act as a master or a slave device, the
ADuM5401 through the ADuM5404 devices can only serve as
master/standalone, and the ADuM520x can only be a
slave/standalone device. This means that the ADuM5000,
ADuM520x, and ADuM5401, ADuM5402, ADuM5403, and
ADuM5404 can only be used in certain master slave
combinations as listed in Table 14.

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. In addition to
the testing performed by the regulatory agencies, Analog Devices
carries out an extensive set of evaluations to determine the lifetime of the insulation structure within the ADuM5000.
In the case of unipolar ac or dc voltage, the stress on the insulation is significantly lower. This allows operation at higher working
voltages while still achieving a 50-year service life. The working
voltages listed in Table 11 can be applied while maintaining the
50-year minimum lifetime, provided the voltage conforms to
either the unipolar ac or dc voltage cases. Treat any cross insulation voltage waveform that does not conform to Figure 14 or
Figure 15 as a bipolar ac waveform and limit its peak voltage to
the 50-year lifetime voltage value listed in Table 11. The voltage
presented in Figure 14 is shown as sinusoidal for illustration
purposes only. It is meant to represent any voltage waveform
varying between 0 V and some limiting value. The limiting
value can be positive or negative, but the voltage cannot cross 0 V.
Analog Devices performs accelerated life testing using voltage
levels higher than the rated continuous working voltage. Acceleration factors for several operating conditions are determined.
These factors allow calculation of the time to failure at the actual
working voltage. The values shown in Table 11 summarize the
peak voltage for 50 years of service life for a bipolar ac operating
condition, and the maximum CSA/VDE approved working voltages. In many cases, the approved working voltage is higher
than 50-year service life voltage. Operation at these high working
voltages can lead to shortened insulation life in some cases.
The insulation lifetime of the ADuM5000 depends on the
voltage waveform imposed across the isolation barrier. The
iCoupler insulation structure degrades at different rates depending on whether the waveform is bipolar ac, unipolar ac,
or dc. Figure 13, Figure 14, and Figure 15 illustrate these different
isolation voltage waveforms.

Another feature that is allowed by the RCSEL and RCIN control
architecture is the ability to completely shut down the oscillator
in the dc-to-dc converter. This places the part in a low power
standby mode and reduces the current draw to a fraction of a
milliamp. When the ADuM5000 is placed in slave mode by
driving RCSEL low, the oscillator is controlled by RCIN. If RCIN
is held low, the oscillator is shut down and the part is in low
power standby. With no oscillator driving power to the secondary,
VISO turns off. This mode is useful for applications where an
isolated subsystem may be shut down to conserve power. To
reactivate the power module, simply drive RCSEL high and the
power supply resumes operation.
