Data Sheet  
and low voltage domains of the chip. Information on the status  
of the chip can be read back from the dedicated outputs.  
FEATURES  
6 A (typical) peak drive output capability  
Internal turn off NFET, on resistance: <1 Ω  
Internal turn on PFET, on resistance: <1.2 Ω  
2 overcurrent protection methods  
Desaturation detection  
Split emitter overcurrent detection  
Miller clamp output with gate sense input  
Isolated fault output  
The ADuM4138 includes an isolated flyback controller,  
allowing simple secondary voltage generation.  
Overcurrent detection is integrated in the ADuM4138 to  
protect the IGBT in case of desaturation and/or overcurrent  
events. The overcurrent detection is coupled with a high speed,  
two-level turn off function in case of faults.  
The ADuM4138 provides a Miller clamp control signal for a  
metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistor (MOSFET) to  
provide IGBT turn off, with a single rail supply when the Miller  
clamp voltage threshold drops below 2 V (typical) above GND2.  
Operation with unipolar secondary supplies is possible with or  
Isolated temperature sensor readback  
Propagation delay  
Rising: 95 ns typical  
Falling: 100 ns typical  
Minimum pulse width: 74 ns  
without the Miller clamp operation.  
Operating junction temperature range: −40°C to +150°C  
V
DD1 and VDD2 UVLO  
A low gate voltage detection circuit can trigger a fault if the gate  
voltage does not rise above the internal threshold within the  
time allowed after turn on (12.8 µs typical). The low voltage  
detection circuit detects IGBT device failures that exhibit gate  
shorts or other causes of weak drive.  
Minimum external tracking (creepage): 8.3 mm (pending)  
Safety and regulatory approvals  
5000 V rms for 1 minute per UL 1577  
CSA Component Acceptance Notice 5A  
DIN V VDE V 0884-10 (VDE V 0884-10):2006-12  
Two temperature sensor pins, TS1 and TS2, allow isolated  
monitoring of system temperatures at the IGBTs. The secondary  
undervoltage lockout (UVLO) is set to 11.2 V (typical) in  
accordance with common IGBT threshold levels.

APPLICATIONS  
MOSFET and IGBT gate drivers  
Photovoltaic (PV) inverters  
Motor drives  
A serial peripheral interface (SPI) bus on the primary side of  
the device provides in field programming of temperature  
sensing diode gains and offsets to the ADuM4138. Values are  
stored on an electrically erasable programmable read-only  
memory (EEPROM) located on the secondary side of the device.  
In addition, programming is available for specific VDD2 voltages,  
temperature sensing reporting frequencies, and overcurrent  
blanking times.  
Power supplies  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The ADuM4138 is a single-channel gate driver optimized for  
driving insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs). Analog  
Devices, Inc., iCoupler® technology provides isolation between  
the input signal and the output gate drive.  
The ADuM4138 provides isolated fault reporting for overcurrent  
events, remote temperature overheating events, UVLO, thermal  
shutdown (TSD), and desaturation detection.  
The Analog Devices chip scale transformers also provide isolated  
communication of control information between the high voltage

Data Sheet  
ADuM4138  
THEORY OF OPERATION  
Gate drivers are required in situations where fast rise times  
of switching device gates are required. The gate signals for  
enhancement power devices are referenced to a source or  
emitter node. The gate driver must follow this source or emitter  
node. As such, isolation is necessary between the controlling  
signal and the output of the gate driver in topologies where the  
source or emitter nodes swing, such as a half bridge. Gate switching  
times are a function of the drive strength of the gate driver.  
Buffer stages before a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor  
(CMOS) output reduce the total delay time and increase the  
final drive strength of the driver.  
chip scale transformer coils separated by layers of polyimide  
isolation. The ADuM4138 uses positive logic on/off keying  
(OOK) encoding, in which a high signal is transmitted by the  
presence of the carrier frequency across the iCoupler chip scale  
transformer coils. Positive logic encoding ensures that a low  
signal is seen on the output when the input side of the gate  
driver is unpowered. A low state is the most common safe state  
in enhancement mode power devices and can drive in situations  
where shoot through conditions are present. The architecture of  
the ADuM4138 is designed for high common-mode transient  
immunity and high immunity to electrical noise and magnetic  
interference. Radiated emissions are minimized with a spread  
spectrum OOK carrier and differential coil layout. Figure 11  
shows the OOK encoding used by the ADuM4138.  
The ADuM4138 achieves isolation between the control side and  
the output side of the gate driver using a high frequency carrier  
that transmits data across the isolation barrier with iCoupler

APPLICATIONS INFORMATION  
Peak current mode control is employed on the primary side of  
the ADuM4138 through the ISENSE pin. Use the following  
equation to set the current limit:  
PCB LAYOUT  
The ADuM4138 IGBT gate driver requires no external interface  
circuitry for the logic interfaces. Power supply bypassing is  
required at the VDD1 and VDD2 supply pins. Use a small ceramic  
capacitor (>10 µF) from VDD1 to GND1. Add at least 30 µF to  
60 µF capacitance on the output power supply pin (VDD2) to  
provide the charge required to drive the gate capacitance at the  
outputs. This capacitance can be provided by multiple parallel  
capacitors. Avoid using vias on VDD2 on the bypass capacitor or  
employing multiple vias to reduce the inductance in bypassing  
because board vias can introduce parasitic inductance. The total  
lead length between both ends of the smaller capacitor and the  
input or output power supply pin must not exceed approximately  
5 mm. For the 5 V regulators, place 1 µF capacitors as close as  
possible to the ADuM4138.  
I
PEAK (mA) = 100 mV/RS  
where:  
PEAK is the desired peak current limit in mA.  
RS is the sense resistor used to set the peak current limit in Ω.

I
A typical application is shown in Figure 30. The recommended  
current-limit resistance (RCL) value is 20 kΩ. In operation, the  
equation for setting the peak current follows:  
VI_SENSE = (II_SENSE) × (RCL) + (IPEAK) × (RS)

ISOLATED FLYBACK CONTROLLER  
SPI AND EEPROM OPERATION  
SPI Programming  
The ADuM4138 has an integrated isolated flyback controller  
that delivers isolated power to the gate being driven. The  
flyback controller provides a control signal to the flyback  
MOSFET on the low side of the device. This MOSFET switches  
the primary side of the flyback transformer. An external diode  
rectifies the secondary voltage and regulates the internal  
compensation on the secondary side. An inductive isolation  
link transfers duty cycle information to the primary side.  
The ADuM4138 contains an SPI bus for setting remote  
temperature gains and offsets, PWM reporting frequency, high  
temperature faults, and low temperature operation mode. The  
SPI bus allows programming of the secondary side EEPROM,  
allowing a permanent operation setting. The SPI interface can  
operate in a daisy-chain mode to allow efficient use of the  
microcontroller input and output pins. When the chip select  
Startup includes a soft start, where the duty cycle is controlled to a  
maximum value that increases with time. The primary side has  
an oscillator that controls this timing. The secondary side also  
has an oscillator, creating the 200 kHz (typical) ramp signal  
used to create the PWM control. The handoff between the soft  
start and secondary oscillator is controlled internally without  
user intervention. An internal resistor network performs  
feedback sensing on the VDD2 pin.  
CS  
(
) pin is brought low, programming of the EEPROM is  
available. However, the gate drive output is disabled. The gate  
CS  
drive output is not available again until is brought back to high.  
Programming is performed using the standard SPI convention of  
clock polarity (CPOL) = 0 and clock phase (CPHA) = 1. The  
SPI timing diagram shown in Figure 2 demonstrates a typical  
read or write operation. Bit A1 and Bit A0 are the address bits. The  
must be zero (MBZ) bits must be set to 0. Bits[D23:D0] are the  
data bits, with MSB first. Bit RW0 sets whether the action is a  
read (0) or a write (1).  
The power good pin, PGOOD, is available for output on the  
primary side, allowing the user to observe when the secondary  
voltage is within regulation.  
If VDD2 loses power during operation, a fault posts to the  
primary side, and the flyback does not automatically attempt  
recovery. The VDD1 power cycle initiates the flyback operation  
again.

LOW_T_OP Bit  
FLYBACK_V[3:0] Bits  
Bit 12 of the CONFIG register can disable a special low  
temperature operation. If the LOW_T_OP bit is set to 0 when  
the TS1 pin rises above 2.4 V (typical), the gate voltage goes to  
the two-level plateau voltage during an on command. Hysteresis  
allows operation down to 2.36 V (typical) on TS1 before the low  
temperature operation mode is left. If the LOW_T_OP bit is set  
to 1, all nonfault gate signals are at the VDD2 output voltage on  
an on signal.  
The FLYBACK_V bits in the EEPROM can set the isolated  
flyback output voltage. The default code is 0111 (16.00 V target).  
Table 16 describes the output voltages available.

OC_BLANK_OP Bit  
Set the OC_BLANK_OP bit to 1 to enable the two-level drive  
during the current blanking time. When the OC_BLANK_OP  
bit is set to 1, it enters the two-level drive in case of an  
overcurrent event during the blanking time, tBLANK  
.
tBLANK[3:0] Bits  
During the initial turn on of a gate, a large amount of noise  
caused by switching actions can exist. To account for this noise,  
the overcurrent detection can be masked by setting different  
tBLANK values. During the masking time, overcurrent events are  
ignored.

Set the T_RAMP_OP bit to 0 to allow the overcurrent reference  
voltage to vary with temperature. The current reference varies by  
10% across the TS1 voltages of 1.55 V to 2.45 V, as shown in  
Figure 14. Set the T_RAMP_OP bit to 1 to have the overcurrent  
reference voltage, VOCD_TH, set to 2 V (typical) regardless of the  
sensed temperature.  
PWM_OSC Bit  
The PWM_OSC bit controls whether the reported TEMP_OUT  
pin PWM frequency is 10 kHz or 50 kHz. When the PWM_OSC  
bit is set to 0, the output frequency is 10 kHz (typical). When  
the PWM_OSC bit is set to 1, the PWM output frequency is  
50 kHz (typical).  
ECC_OFF_OP Bit  
If the ECC_OFF_OP bit is set to 1 when an ECC error is  
detected, the ADuM4138 enters a soft shutdown and a fault  
registers. This fault registers whether a single or double ECC  
fault is detected. If this bit is set to 0, ECC faults are set in the  
control register (Address 10), but the ADuM4138 continues to  
operate without shutting down.

When a single error is detected in the EEPROM stored data, the

code employed by the ADuM4138 can detect and correct a  
single error. The ECC2_SNG_ERR bit set to 1 indicates that a  
single error is detected in the memory banks, representing trim  
performed on the ADuM4138 by the user and configuration  
(CONFIG) addresses. A value of 0 indicates no single bit error  
was detected.

takes 40 ms (maximum) to perform but can write faster than  
40 ms (maximum). If a shorter wait time is required, the  
PROG_BUSY bit can be read back multiple times during the

ECC2_DBL_ERR Bit  
When two errors are detected in the EEPROM stored data, the  
ECC2_DBL_ERR bit sets to 1 when read. Two errors are detectable.  
Hwever, these errors cannot be fixed using the error correcting  
code employed by the ADuM4138. The ECC2_DBL_ERR bit  
set to 1 indicates when a double error is detected in the memory  
banks, representing trim performed on the ADuM4138 outside  
of the registers affected by user and configuration (CONFIG)  
addresses. When this bit is set to 0, it indicates no error was  
detected for bits greater than 1.  
SIM_TRIM Bit  
If the SIM_TRIM bit is set to 0, the user and configuration  
(CONFIG) registers have no effect on the operation of the  
ADuM4138. Use this bit to simulate trim settings but not to  
write to the registers.  
If SIM_TRIM is set high, address values can change the operation  
of the gate driver to simulate what programming the values to  
the EEPROM does across power ups. When SIM_TRIM is set  
to 0, previous address values from the EEPROM are loaded, and  
operation returns to what the power on state is.  
ECC2_SNG_ERR Bit  
When a single error is detected in the EEPROM stored data, the  
ECC2_SNG_ERR bit sets to 1 when read. The error correcting  
code employed by the ADuM4138 can detect and correct a  
single error. The ECC2_SNG_ERR bit set to 1 indicates when a  
single error is detected in the memory banks, representing trim  
performed on the ADuM4138 outside of the registers affected

is set to 0, it indicates no single bit error was detected.  
ECC1_DBL_ERR Bit  
When two errors are detected in the EEPROM stored data,  
the ECC1_DBL_ERR bit sets to 1 when read. Two errors are  
detectable. However, these errors cannot be corrected using  
the error correcting code employed by the ADuM4138. The  
ECC2_DBL_ERR bit set to 1 indicates that a double error is  
detected in the memory banks, representing trim performed  
on the ADuM4138 by the user and configuration (CONFIG)  
addresses. A value of 0 indicates no error was detected for bits  
greater than 1.

Data Sheet  
Overcurrent Detection  
PROPAGATION DELAY RELATED PARAMETERS  
The ADuM4138 operates with split emitter IGBTs or split  
source MOSFETs. Using the lower current leg of the split leg  
switches, an accurate measurement of current through the  
IGBT or MOSFET can be made through a precision sense  
resistor. In this way, fast reaction to overcurrent events results.  
When an overcurrent event is detected, a high speed, two-level,  
turn off initiates. If the overcurrent condition remains beyond  
the two-level, detect delay time (tdOC), a fault reports to the  
primary side of the ADuM4138. If the overcurrent condition is  
removed before the turn off time, the VOUT_ON pin returns to a  
high output state, and the fault timer is reset.  
Propagation delay describes the time it takes a logic signal to  
propagate through a component. The propagation delay to a  
low output can differ from the propagation delay to a high  
output. The ADuM4138 specifies tDLH (see Figure 13) as the  
time between the rising input high logic threshold, VIH, to the  
output rising 10% threshold. Likewise, the falling propagation  
delay, tDHL, is defined as the time between the input falling logic  
low threshold, VIL, and the output falling 90% threshold. The  
rise and fall times are dependent on the loading conditions and  
are not included in the propagation delay, which is the industry  
standard for gate drivers.  
Sense temperature on the TS1 pin can modify the overcurrent  
threshold. If the T_RAMP_OP bit is set to 1, the overcurrent  
threshold is set to 2 V (typical) across all operating conditions.  
If the T_RAMP_OP bit is set to 0, the overcurrent voltage  
temperature threshold, VOCD_TH_EN, is set to 2.69 V (typical) at TS1 =  
1.55 V and goes to 1.75 V (typical) at TS1 = 2.45 V in a linear  
fashion (see Figure 14).

The ADuM4138 has UVLO on both the primary and secondary  
sides. If the primary side voltage drops below 4.13 V (typical),  
the transmission to the secondary side is stopped, effectively  
bringing the output low. There can be current flowing from the  
decoupling capacitor on the V5_1 pin due to the body diode of  
the 5 V internal regulator. It is recommended that the VDD1 pin  
to GND1 pin be supplied with a voltage 6 V or greater.

ADuM4138  
High Speed, Two-Level, Turn Off  
ADuM4138  
If the OC1 or OC2 pin detects an overcurrent, the two-level  
turn off circuitry drives the gate low. The internal MOSFET  
drives the device gate low until the input voltage (GATE_SENSE)  
reaches the 11.9 V (typical) voltage plateau. tdOCR is time the  
output takes from detecting an overcurrent to driving the  
overcurrent to the plateau voltage. After the detect time (tdOC),  
a fault is registered and reported to the primary side (see Figure 16).  
If during tdOC the overcurrent threshold (VOCD_TH), is no longer  
violated, the internal positive metal-oxide conductor (PMOS)  
returns the gate back to the VDD2 voltage and the two-level timer  
is reset (see Figure 17).

Miller Clamp  
The ADuM4138 has an integrated Miller clamp control signal  
to reduce voltage spikes on the IGBT gate due to the Miller  
capacitance during shutoff of the IGBT. When the input gate  
signal calls for the IGBT to turn off (drive low), the external  
Miller clamp MOSFET signal is initially off. When the voltage  
on the GATE_SENSE pin crosses the 2 V (typical) internal  
voltage reference, as referenced to GND2, the Miller clamp  
latches on for the remainder of the off time of the IGBT,  
creating a second low impedance current path for the gate  
current to follow. The Miller clamp switch remains on until  
the input drive signal changes from low to high. Figure 19  
shows an example waveform of this timing, and Figure 20  
shows the functional block diagram of the Miller clamp.

ADuM4138  
Data Sheet  
Under normal operation, during IGBT off times, the voltage  
across the IGBT (VCE) rises to the rail voltage supplied to the  
system. In this instance, the blocking diode shuts off, protecting  
the ADuM4138 from high voltages. During the off times, the  
internal desaturation switch is on, accepting the current going  
through the RBLANK resistor, which allows the CBLANK capacitor  
to remain at a low voltage. For the first 450 ns (typical) of the  
IGBT on time, the desaturation switch remains on, clamping  
the DESAT pin voltage low. After the 450 ns (typical) delay  
time, the DESAT pin releases, and the DESAT pin rises to  
starting voltage (V3) = VCE + VF + VR_DESAT to dampen the  
current at this time, usually around 100 Ω (see Figure 30).

Desaturation Detection  
The ADuM4138 enters a failure state and turns the IGBT off to  
prevent desaturation from causing a short-circuit condition  
across the IGBT, if the DESAT pin exceeds the DESAT threshold,  
In the case of a desaturation event, VCE rises above the 9 V  
threshold in the desaturation detection circuit. The voltage  
on the DESAT pin rises with a resistor capacitor (RC) time  
constant profile dependent on the CBLANK capacitor and the  
V
DESAT_R, of 8.9 V (typical) while the high-side driver is on. At  
FAULT  
this time, the  
pin is brought low. An internal current  
source of 490 µA (typical) is provided, as well as the option to  
boost the charging current using external current sources or  
pull-up resistors. The ADuM4138 has a built in blanking time,  
RBLANK resistor. The exact timing of this depends on V3, the  
supply voltage (VDD2), the RBLANK resistor, and the CBLANK  
capacitor values. Depending on the IGBT specifications, a  
blanking time of around 2 µs is the typical design choice. When  
the DESAT pin rises above the 9 V threshold, a fault registers,  
and the gate output is driven low. The NFET soft shutdown  
MOSFET brings the output low, which is 15 Ω (typical), to  
perform a soft shutdown to reduce the chance of an overvoltage  
spike on the IGBT during an abrupt turn off event. Within 825 ns  
(typical), the fault communicates back to the primary side  
t
BLANK, to prevent false triggering while the IGBT is first turning  
on. The time between desaturation detection and reporting a  
FAULT  
desaturation fault to the  
pin is less than 825 ns (typical).  
t
DESAT_BLANK provides a 450 ns (typical) masking time that keeps  
the internal switch that grounds the blanking capacitor tied low

Thermal Shutdown

The ADuM4138 contains two thermal shutdowns (TSDs). If the  
internal temperature of the secondary side of the ADuM4138  
exceeds 150°C (typical), the ADuM4138 enters a TSD fault, and  
the gate drive is disabled by means of a soft shutdown. When a  
TSD occurs, the ADuM4138 does not leave TSD until the  
internal temperature has dropped below 130°C (typical). After  
reaching this temperature, the ADuM4138 exits shutdown. A  
fault output is available on the primary side during a TSD event

ADuM4138  
Isolated Temperature Sensor  
A low temperature operation mode is available if the voltage  
sensed on the TS1 pin is greater than 2.4 V (typical), the  
maximum gate voltage is set to the two-level plateau voltage  
of 11.90 V (typical), see Figure 23. Hysteresis allows continued  
low temperature operation until the TS1 pin voltage goes below  
2.36 V (typical). Low temperature operation can be enabled  
or disabled in the EEPROM settings in the LOW_T_OP bit,  
Address 01, Bit 12. Basic operation is shown in Figure 23.  
During the two-level drive, the RDSON resistances of the turn  
on and turn off drivers increase to approximately 4 times the  
normal turn on and turn off resistances.  
The ADuM4138 allows simple isolated temperature detection.  
Using an internal current source to bias an external temperature  
sensing diode, the ADuM4138 encodes the forward-biased  
voltage of the diode into a PWM signal, which is passed across  
the isolation barrier from the secondary side to the primary side.  
The PWM signal operates at 10 kHz or 50 kHz (programmed  
in the EEPROM). A 10% (typical) PWM signal corresponds to a  
voltage of 2.45 V, and a 92% (typical) PWM signal corresponds  
to 1.55 V. Voltages between the minimum and maximum are  
approximately linear and monotonically interpolated. The  
ADuM4138 contains support for two remote temperature  
sensing diode assemblies, which can both cause overheating  
faults on the secondary side. Additionally, one temperature  
sensor readback is available for reading on the primary side  
through the isolated temperature reporting channel. The lower  
voltage (higher temperature) of the two temperature sensor  
pins, TS1 and TS2, reports on the TEMP_OUT pin. The gain  
and offset of the PWM temperature sensor can be set in the  
TEMP_OUT pin voltage mapping (see Figure 22).

POWER DISSIPATION  
INSULATION LIFETIME  
When driving an IGBT gate, the driver must dissipate power.  
This power can lead to TSD if the following considerations are  
not made. The gate of an IGBT can be simulated roughly as a  
capacitive load. Due to Miller capacitance and other nonlinearities,  
All insulation structures eventually break down when subjected  
to voltage stress over a sufficiently long period. The rate of  
insulation degradation is dependent on the characteristics of the  
voltage waveform applied across the insulation. In addition to  
the testing performed by the regulatory agencies, Analog Devices  
carries out an extensive set of evaluations to determine the  
lifetime of the insulation structure within the ADuM4138.  
it is common practice to take the stated input capacitance (CISS  
of a given IGBT and multiply it by a factor of 5 to arrive at a  
conservative estimate to approximate the load being driven.  
)
With this value, the estimated total power dissipation (PDISS) in  
the system due to switching action is given by the following  
equation:  
Analog Devices performs accelerated life testing using voltage  
levels higher than the rated continuous working voltage.  
Acceleration factors for several operating conditions are  
determined. These factors allow calculation of the time to  
failure at the actual working voltage.

DISS = CEST × (VDD2)2 × fS

The values shown Table 10 summarize the peak voltage for  
20 years of service life for a bipolar ac operating condition, and  
the maximum CSA/VDE approved working voltages. In many  
cases, the approved working voltage is higher than the 20 year  
service life voltage. Operation at these high working voltages  
can lead to shortened insulation life in some cases.  
of IGBT.  
This power dissipation is shared between the internal on  
resistances of the internal gate driver switches and the external  
gate resistances, RGON and RGOFF. The ratio of the internal gate  
resistances to the total series resistance allows the calculation  
of losses seen within the ADuM4138 chip.  
The insulation lifetime of the ADuM4138 depends on the  
voltage waveform type imposed across the isolation barrier.  
The iCoupler insulation structure degrades at different rates  
depending on whether the waveform is bipolar ac, unipolar ac,  
or dc. Figure 25, Figure 26, and Figure 27 show these different  
isolation voltage waveforms.  
Take the power dissipation found inside the chip due to  
switching, adding the quiescent power losses, and multiplying  
it by the θJA gives the rise above ambient temperature that the  
ADuM4138 experiences.  
A bipolar ac voltage environment is the worst case for the  
iCoupler products and is the 20 year operating lifetime that  
Analog Devices recommends for maximum working voltage  
(see Figure 25). In the case of unipolar ac or dc voltage, the stress  
on the insulation is significantly lower, which allows operation at  
higher working voltages while still achieving a 20 year service life.  
Treat any cross insulation voltage waveform that does not conform  
to Figure 26 or Figure 27 as a bipolar ac waveform, and limit its  
peak voltage to the 20 year lifetime voltage value listed in Table 10.

DC CORRECTNESS AND MAGNETIC FIELD  
IMMUNITY  
DISTANCE = 1m  
The ADuM4138 is resistant to external magnetic fields. The  
limitation on the ADuM4138 magnetic field immunity is set by  
the condition in which the induced voltage in the transformer  
receiving coil is sufficiently large to either falsely set or reset the  
decoder. The following analysis defines the conditions under  
which this can occur.
