Isolated DC-to-DC converters

19 February 2014 Power Electronics / Power Management

RS Components announced that it is stocking the industry’s smallest isolated DC-to-DC converters from Analog Devices.

The ADuM5010, ADuM6010, ADuM521x and ADuM621x use 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 iCoupler data isolation technology to reduce board space by up to 75% compared to optocoupler-based alternatives.

The converters provide 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.

All of the 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.
