Analog Devices Inc. EVAL-ADuM4137 Evaluation Kit

Analog Devices EVAL-ADuM4137 Evaluation Kit demonstrates the advanced features of the ADuM4137 while maintaining flexibility in a testing environment. The ADuM4137 High Voltage, Isolated IGBT Gate Driver offers an overcurrent detection option that protects the IGBT in case of overcurrent events. The EVAL-ADuM4137EBZ board layout can be optimized with a circuit that is easy to manipulate via jumper pins, increasing the performance of the system. The Board utilizes the USB-SDP-CABLEZ programming cable to access the secondary side EEPROM and includes the option to drive the SPI bus with any other SPI-compatible system. The USB-SDP-CABLEZ Cable operates with a 3.3V logic supply, while the ADuM4137 has an internal 5V regulator. Interfacing is allowed via a resistor divider on the MISO line for the R21 and R22 resistors. The EVAL-ADuM4137 Evaluation Kit requires a power supply, cable, and signal generator.
