Description
The FOD2711A Optically Isolated Amplifier consists of
the popular AZ431L precision programmable shunt ref-
erence and an optocoupler. The optocoupler is a gallium
arsenide (GaAs) light emitting diode optically coupled to
a silicon phototransistor. The reference voltage toler-
ance is 1%. The current transfer ratio (CTR) ranges from
100% to 200%.
It is primarily intended for use as the error amplifier/
reference voltage/optocoupler function in isolated AC to
DC power supplies and dc/dc converters.
When using the FOD2711A, power supply designers can
reduce the component count and save space in tightly
packaged designs. The tight tolerance reference elimi-
nates the need for adjustments in many applications.
The device comes in a 8-pin dip white package.

Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be
operable above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended.
In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability.
The absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only.

FOD2711A Rev. 1.0.0 11
FOD2711A — Optically Isolated Error Amplifier
The FOD2711A
The FOD2711A is an optically isolated error amplifier. It
incorporates three of the most common elements neces-
sary to make an isolated power supply, a reference volt-
age, an error amplifier, and an optocoupler. It is
functionally equivalent to the popular AZ431L shunt volt-
age regulator plus the CNY17F-3 optocoupler.
Powering the Secondary Side
The LED pin in the FOD2711A powers the secondary
side, and in particular provides the current to run the
LED. The actual structure of the FOD2711A dictates the
minimum voltage that can be applied to the LED pin: The
error amplifier output has a minimum of the reference
voltage, and the LED is in series with that. Minimum volt-
age applied to the LED pin is thus 1.24V + 1.5V = 2.74V.
This voltage can be generated either directly from the
output of the converter, or else from a slaved secondary
winding. The secondary winding will not affect regula-
tion, as the input to the FB pin may still be taken from the
output winding.
The LED pin needs to be fed through a current limiting
resistor. The value of the resistor sets the amount of cur-
rent through the LED, and thus must be carefully
selected in conjunction with the selection of the primary
side resistor.
Feedback
Output voltage of a converter is determined by selecting
a resistor divider from the regulated output to the FB pin.
The FOD2711A attempts to regulate its FB pin to the
reference voltage, 1.24V. The ratio of the two resistors
should thus be:
The absolute value of the top resistor is set by the input
offset current of 0.8µA. To achieve 1% accuracy, the
resistance of RTOP should be:
Compensation
The compensation pin of the FOD2711A provides the
opportunity for the designer to design the frequency
response of the converter. A compensation network may
be placed between the COMP pin and the FB pin. In
typical low-bandwidth systems, a 0.1µF capacitor may
be used. For converters with more stringent require-
ments, a network should be designed based on mea-
surements of the system’s loop. An excellent reference
for this process may be found in “Practical Design of
Power Supplies” by Ron Lenk, IEEE Press, 1998.
Secondary Ground
The GND pin should be connected to the secondary
ground of the converter.
No Connect Pins
The NC pins have no internal connection. They should
not have any connection to the secondary side, as this
may compromise the isolation structure.
Photo-Transistor
The Photo-transistor is the output of the FOD2711A. In a
normal configuration the collector will be attached to a
pull-up resistor and the emitter grounded. There is no
base connection necessary.
The value of the pull-up resistor, and the current limiting
resistor feeding the LED, must be carefully selected to
account for voltage range accepted by the PWM IC, and
for the variation in current transfer ratio (CTR) of the
opto-isolator itself.
Example: The voltage feeding the LED pins is +12V, the
voltage feeding the collector pull-up is +10V, and the
PWM IC is the Fairchild KA1H0680, which has a 5V ref-
erence. If we select a 10K resistor for the LED, the
maximum current the LED can see is:
(12V–2.74V) / 10k = 926µA.
The CTR of the opto-isolator is a minimum of 100%, and
so the minimum collector current of the photo-transistor
when the diode is full on is also 926µA. The collector
resistor must thus be such that:
select 10k to allow some margin.

FAIRCHILD’S PRODUCTS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED FOR USE AS CRITICAL COMPONENTS IN LIFE SUPPORT DEVICES OR SYSTEMS WITHOUT THE
EXPRESS WRITTEN APPROVAL OF FAIRCHILD SEMICONDUCTOR CORPORATION.
As used herein:
1. Life support devices or systems are devices or systems which, (a)
are intended for surgical implant into the body or (b) support or
sustain life, and (c) whose failure to perform when properly used in
accordance with instructions for use provided in the labeling, can be
reasonably expected to result in a significant injury of the user.
2. A critical component in any component of a life support, device, or
system whose failure to perform can be reasonably expected to

ANTI-COUNTERFEITING POLICY
Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation's Anti-Counterfeiting Policy. Fairchild's Anti-Counterfeiting Policy is also stated on our external website, www.fairchildsemi.com,
under Sales Support.
Counterfeiting of semiconductor parts is a growing problem in the industry. All manufacturers of semiconductor products are experiencing counterfeiting of their
parts. Customers who inadvertently purchase counterfeit parts experience many problems such as loss of brand reputation, substandard performance,failed
applications, and increased cost of production and manufacturing delays. Fairchild is taking strong measures to protect ourselves and our customersfromthe
proliferation of counterfeit parts. Fairchild strongly encourages customers to purchase Fairchild parts either directly from Fairchild or from Authorized Fairchild
Distributors who are listed by country on our web page cited above. Products customers buy either from Fairchild directly or from Authorized FairchildDistributors
are genuine parts, have full traceability, meet Fairchild's quality standards for handling and storage and provide access to Fairchild's full range of up-to-date technical
and product information. Fairchild and our Authorized Distributors will stand behind all warranties and will appropriately address any warranty issues that may arise.
Fairchild will not provide any warranty coverage or other assistance for parts bought from Unauthorized Sources. Fairchild is committed to combat this global
problem and encourage our customers to do their part in stopping this practice by buying direct or from authorized distributors.
