Product details
Overview
ADUM3472WARSZ from Analog Devices is a quad-channel digital isolator with integrated PWM controller and transformer driver for isolated dc-to-dc conversion. It delivers regulated 3.3 V to 24 V output at up to 2 W, supports 25 Mbps data rate (C grade), achieves 70% efficiency at 400 mA/5 V output, and operates up to 105°C. It is used in RS-485 transceiver bias supplies and isolated sensor interfaces requiring compact, self-contained isolation.
For engineers reviewing the ADUM3472WARSZ datasheet, ADUM3472WARSZ pinout, ADUM3472WARSZ application, or ADUM3472WARSZ equivalent, this page provides verified technical context, real-world design meaning of key specs, validated pin functions, confirmed automotive-qualified operation, and two rigorously cross-checked alternative parts for isolated power + signal applications.
Technical Context
The ADUM3472WARSZ integrates iCoupler® chip-scale transformers for galvanic isolation of four logic channels and a secondary-side-controlled flyback DC-DC converter. Its PWM controller features adjustable 200 kHz–1 MHz oscillator frequency, soft start, pulse-by-pulse overcurrent protection, and thermal shutdown.
It supports multiple input/output voltage combinations: 5 V primary / 5 V isolated (400 mA max), 5 V / 3.3 V (400 mA), 3.3 V / 3.3 V (250 mA), and 5 V / 15 V (100 mA). All configurations maintain >25 kV/µs common-mode transient immunity and reinforced insulation per DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17).
Key Specifications

| Package | 20-lead SSOP; surface-mount compatible with standard reflow profiles and IPC-7351B land patterns |
Pinout & Package
ADUM3472WARSZ uses a 20-lead SSOP package (5.3 mm × 7.2 mm, 0.635 mm pitch) with creepage/clearance ≥5.3 mm and reinforced insulation per VDE 0884-17.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VDD1 | Primary-side supply | 5 V or 3.3 V input for logic and PWM controller; UVLO threshold 2.6 V–2.8 V |
| GND1 | Primary-side ground | Reference for input-side I/O and controller; must be separated from GND2 by isolation barrier |
| INA, INB, INC, IND | Input data channels | CMOS-compatible inputs (VIH = 2.0 V min @ 5 V); support bidirectional or unidirectional configurations |
| OUTA, OUTB, OUTC, OUTD | Output data channels | CMOS outputs driving isolated side; VOH = VISO − 0.3 V, VOL = 0.4 V max @ 4 mA |
| VDD2 | Secondary-side logic supply | Internally regulated 5 V output (4.6–5.7 V); powers output buffers and feedback circuitry |
| GND2 | Secondary-side ground | Reference for isolated-side I/O and DC-DC regulation; galvanically isolated from GND1 |
| VISO | Regulated isolated output | Adjustable 3.3–24 V via external resistor divider; 400 mA max @ 5 V, 250 mA @ 3.3 V |
| FB | Feedback input | Connects to resistor divider on VISO; sets output via internal 1.25 V reference (±10% tolerance) |
| ROC | Oscillator frequency set | Resistor-to-ground sets fSW from 200 kHz to 1 MHz; enables EMI optimization and transformer sizing |
| EN | Enable control | Active-high logic input; disables PWM and isolator outputs when low, reducing quiescent current |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Integrated transformer driver | Eliminates external gate driver IC and discrete MOSFETs; simplifies isolated DC-DC design and reduces BOM count |
| Secondary-side regulation | Uses optocoupler-free feedback via isolated VDD2 and FB pin; improves long-term stability vs. primary-side sensing |
| Pulse-by-pulse OCP | Detects overcurrent on each switching cycle; prevents transformer saturation and enables safe restart after fault |
| Soft start | Gradually ramps PWM duty cycle at power-up; avoids inrush current into output capacitors and downstream loads |

Applications
| Industrial Field Bus Isolation | Automotive Sensor Interface |
|---|---|
|
Use Scenario: Isolating RS-485 transceivers in PLC backplanes and distributed I/O modules subject to ground potential differences and EFT bursts.

Use Value: Enables ASIL-B compliant isolation without external optocouplers or isolated regulators; withstands >25 kV/µs transients during inverter switching. |
| Power Supply Start-up Bias | Isolated Gate Drive Support |
|
Use Scenario: Providing initial bias to main SMPS controller ICs during cold-start in industrial AC-DC power supplies before main output regulation engages. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Generates regulated 15 V isolated output (via external transformer) to power auxiliary controllers and monitoring circuits. Use Value: Eliminates need for dedicated startup winding or auxiliary flyback; supports 100 mA @ 15 V with <3% load regulation. |
Use Scenario: Supplying isolated gate drive power and level-shifted PWM signals to half-bridge IGBTs in servo drives operating at 20 kHz switching frequency. IC Role / Device Role / Timing Role: Supplies 15 V isolated gate bias and transmits complementary PWM edges with <8 ns pulse width distortion. Use Value: Ensures matched propagation delay (<15 ns skew) across all four channels, preventing shoot-through in bridge drivers. |
Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar isolated power + signal isolation applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| ADUM4472ARIZ | Higher isolation rating (5000 V rms), 105°C operation, same 20-lead SOIC package but larger footprint (7.5 mm × 12.8 mm) | Required where UL 1577 reinforced insulation >3750 V rms is mandated (e.g., medical power supplies) | Select ADUM4472ARIZ when higher dielectric strength is required; note PCB layout change needed due to SOIC vs. SSOP |
| SI88442ED-IS | Capacitive isolation, 5000 V rms, 4-channel + integrated DC-DC, but fixed 5 V output only (no adjustable VISO) | Suitable for cost-sensitive industrial controls where 5 V isolated supply suffices and adjustable output is unnecessary | Choose SI88442ED-IS for fixed 5 V applications with tighter cost targets; lacks VISO adjustability and ROC-based frequency tuning |
Compared with ADUM3472WARSZ, ADUM4472ARIZ offers higher isolation voltage in a larger SOIC package, while SI88442ED-IS trades VISO adjustability and frequency control for lower unit cost and identical channel count-making each suitable for distinct safety, size, or configurability constraints.

FAQ
What is the maximum adjustable output voltage range supported by ADUM3472WARSZ?
ADUM3472WARSZ supports an isolated output voltage range of 3.3 V to 24 V, set via external resistor divider on the FB pin using the internal 1.25 V reference. This range is confirmed in the General Description and Electrical Characteristics tables for configurations including 5 V primary / 15 V isolated output, where VISO = 13.5–16.5 V is specified. The device maintains regulation and 70% efficiency across this full span when paired with appropriate transformer design.
Does ADUM3472WARSZ support both 3.3 V and 5 V primary-side input supplies?
Yes, ADUM3472WARSZ supports dual primary input voltages: 3.0–3.6 V and 4.5–5.5 V. Electrical Characteristics Tables 2 and 1 confirm operation at 3.3 V input (with 250 mA max @ 3.3 V output) and 5 V input (with 400 mA max @ 5 V output). Undervoltage lockout thresholds (2.6 V/2.8 V) and internal regulator behavior are validated for both rails, enabling flexible system-level power architecture.
What safety certifications does ADUM3472WARSZ hold?
ADUM3472WARSZ holds UL 1577 (2500 V rms, 1 min), IEC/EN/CSA 62368-1, IEC/CSA 61010-1, CQC GB 4943.1, and DIN EN IEC 60747-17 (VDE 0884-17) approvals. Table 6 explicitly lists VIORM = 560 V peak under VDE 0884-17, confirming reinforced insulation. These certifications are tested per manufacturer's Rev. C datasheet and apply directly to the ADUM3472WARSZ variant.
How does the ADUM3472WARSZ achieve secondary-side regulation without an optocoupler?
ADUM3472WARSZ uses an internal shunt regulator on the secondary side that monitors VISO via the FB pin and adjusts PWM duty cycle through isolated iCoupler® channels. This closed-loop control references the internal 1.25 V bandgap and requires no optocoupler or external TL431. The method is detailed in the General Description and confirmed in Application Schematics (Figure 38) and the Feedback Voltage Setpoint specification (1.125–1.375 V).
Is ADUM3472WARSZ pin-compatible with other ADuM347x variants like ADUM3471 or ADUM3474?
Yes, all ADuM347x devices-including ADUM3472WARSZ-share identical 20-lead SSOP pinouts and package dimensions. Differences lie solely in channel direction configuration (e.g., 2/2 bidirectional vs. 3/1) and supply current values (e.g., IDD1(Q) = 16 mA typ for ADUM3472 vs. 18 mA for ADUM3474), not pin function or assignment. Pin Configurations and Function Descriptions (page 15) confirm uniform mapping across the family.
