The ADuM5230 1 is an isolated half-bridge gate driver that employs Analog Devices, Inc., iCoupler technology to provide independent and isolated high-side and low-side outputs. Combining CMOS and microtransformer technologies, this isolation component contains an integrated dc-to-dc converter providing an isolated high-side supply. This eliminates the cost, space, and performance difficulties associated with external supply configurations such as a bootstrap circuitry. This highside isolated supply powers not only the ADuM5230 high-side output but also any external buffer circuitry used with the ADuM5230.
