Analog Devices Introduces Industry’s Smallest Isolated DC-to-DC Converters
13 November 2012 - 8:00PM
Business Wire
Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI), a global leader in high-performance
semiconductors for signal-processing applications and a pioneer in
digital isolator technology, today introduced the industry’s
smallest isolated DC-to-DC converters. The ADuM5010, ADuM6010,
ADuM521x and ADuM621x use ADI’s proprietary isoPower® isolated
DC-to-DC converter technology to deliver 150 mW of output power
while using less board space than competing module-based solutions.
The ADuM521x and ADuM621x also integrate two channels of ADI’s
award winning iCoupler® data isolation technology to reduce board
space by up to 75 percent compared to optocoupler-based
alternatives. The converters expand ADI’s isolated power portfolio
by providing designers with a compact, easy-to-implement,
cost-effective approach to meeting both isolated power and data
requirements. The combination of size and output power also
addresses the growing space and power constraints engineers must
consider when designing control systems, test and measurement
equipment, power supplies, motor drives, and other industrial and
instrumentation applications.

“This new line of isoPower DC-to-DC converters delivers an
excellent balance between power and size that will allow customers
to design more functionality and efficiency into smaller form
factors while continuing to minimize system cost,” said David
Krakauer, product line manager, iCoupler Digital Isolator Products,
Analog Devices. “ADI’s collaborative approach, design support and
system-level knowledge help our customers take full advantage of
our power isolation technology.”
All of the new DC-to-DC converters provide regulated, isolated
power, adjustable between 3.15 V and 5.25 V. The ADuM5010 and
ADuM521x are certified for 2.5-kV rms (1-minute) isolation, while
the ADuM6010 and ADuM621x are certified for 3.75-kV rms (1-minute)
isolation with further certification for reinforced insulation per
VDE 0884-10. By incorporating ADI’s iCoupler digital isolator
technology, the ADuM521x and ADuM621x reduce component count and
simplify and improve design speed, reliability, and efficiency by
eliminating the need for optocouplers. Quad-channel versions of
these products using ADI’s smaller, lower cost isoPower technology
are forthcoming.
Isolated DC-to-DC Converters Reduce System Development
Time
Analog Devices pre-certifies its converter modules to help
designers reduce system development time, unlike multi-component
discrete DC-to-DC converters, which require that designers
undertake the costly and time consuming process of individually
certifying a dozen or more parts. Additionally, ADI’s isolated
DC-to-DC converter modules require no added components aside from
two bypass capacitors, easing design complexity and reducing time
to market.
