B | Page 1 of 20 INTRODUCTION i Coupler® digital isolators with integrated isolated power (isoPower®) employ isolated dc-to-dc converters that switch currents of ~700 mA at frequencies as high as 300 MHz. Operation at these high frequencies raises concerns about radiated emissions and conducted noise. PCB layout and construction is a very important tool for controlling radiated emissions and noise from applications containing isoPower components. This application note identifies the radiation mechanisms and offers specific guidance on addressing them. Several standards for radiated emissions exist. In the U.S., the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) controls the standards and test methods. In Europe, the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) generates standards, and CISPR test methods are used for evaluating emissions. The methods and pass/fail limits are slightly different under the two standards. Although this application note is written with reference to CISPR standards, all results are applicable to both standards. With proper design choices, isoPower devices can easily meet CISPR Class A (FCC Class A) emissions standards. With care, these products can also meet CISPR Class B and FCC Part 15, Subpart B, Class B (FCC Class B) standards in an unshielded environment. This application note examines PCB-related EMI mitigation techniques, including board layout and stack-up issues. The techniques, example layouts, and measurements described in this application note are highly dependent on the options available in PCB construction. A 4-layer PCB is required to implement the evaluated EMI control techniques. Availability of more internal PCB layers offers the same EMI reductions within smaller geometry PCBs. For the purposes of this application note, a 4-layer board was designed and manufactured using materials and structures well within industry norms. Control of emissions from signal cables and chassis shielding techniques are outside of the scope of this application note. isoPower OVERVIEW The ADuM5xxx and ADuM6xxx product families represent a significant step forward in isolation technology. Analog Devices, Inc., has leveraged their experience in microtransformer design to create chip scale dc-to-dc power converters. These power converters are incorporated into Analog Devices signal isolation products. Power levels of up to one-half watt are available, at output voltages ranging from 3.3 V to 15 V. isoPower is used to power the secondary side of the iCoupler data channels as well as to provide power to off-chip loads. Because the Analog Devices standard data couplers use a similar magnetic technology, EMI can be an issue in data-only iCouplers and the data channels of isoPower devices. Emissions from data channels are addressed in the AN-1109 Application Note, Control of Radiated Emissions in iCoupler Devices. Analog Devices uses several power architectures to achieve desired design goals, such as efficiency, small size, and high output voltage (see Figure 1). These architectures have three common ele- ments: a transformer to couple power to the secondary side of the iCoupler, an oscillator tank circuit that switches current into the transformer at an optimum frequency for efficient power transfer, and a rectifier that recreates a dc level on the secondary side. Several regulation methods are used in these products. The physics of the transformer requires that the oscillator circuit switch current into the transformer at a rate ranging from between 180 MHz and 300 MHz. The rectifier circuit on the secondary side effectively doubles this frequency during the rectification process. These functions are common in switching power supplies; however, the operating frequency is three orders of magnitude higher than a standard dc-to-dc converter. Noise generated by the operation of the converter into the 30 MHz to 1 GHz range is of concern for radiated emissions.
