8.4 Power Supply Recommendations

In a typical application, the high-side power supply (AVDD) for the AMC0x36 is generated from the low-side supply (DVDD) by an isolated DC/DC converter. A low-cost option is based on the push-pull driver SN6501 and a transformer that supports the desired isolation voltage ratings.

The AMC0x36 does not require any specific power-up sequencing. The high-side power supply (AVDD) is decoupled with a low-ESR, 100nF capacitor (C1) parallel to a low-ESR, 1μF capacitor (C2). The low-side power supply (DVDD) is equally decoupled with a low-ESR, 100nF capacitor (C3) parallel to a low-ESR, 1μF capacitor (C4). Place all four capacitors (C1, C2, C3, and C4) as close to the device as possible. Figure 8-4 shows a decoupling diagram for the AMC0x36.

Capacitors must provide adequate effective capacitance under the applicable DC bias conditions experienced in the application. Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) typically exhibit only a fraction of the nominal capacitance under real-world conditions. Consider this factor when selecting these capacitors. This issue is especially acute in low-profile capacitors, in which the dielectric field strength is higher than in taller components. Reputable capacitor manufacturers provide capacitance versus DC bias curves that greatly simplify component selection.
