Functional Block Diagram PIN CONFIGURATIONSINSIDE THE AD215 The AD215 is a fully self-contained analog signal and power isolation solution. It employs a double-balanced amplitude 1353743BOTTOM VIEW OF modulation technique to perform transformer coupling of sig- 24636 3842 44FOOTPRINT nals ranging in frequency from true dc values to those having frequencies of 120 kHz or less. To generate the power supplies used for the isolated front-end AD215 PIN DESIGNATIONS circuitry, an internal clock oscillator drives the primary winding of the integral dc/dc power supply’s transformer, T2.
