HCPL-261A, HCPL-061A, HCPL-263A, HCPL-063A HCPL-261N, HCPL-061N, HCPL-263N, HCPL-063N HCMOS Compatible, High CMR, 10 MBd Optocouplers Data Sheet Lead (Pb) Free RoHS 6 fully compliant RoHS 6 fully compliant options available; -xxxE denotes a lead-free product Description Features The HCPL-261A family of optically coupled gates shown on this data sheet provide all the benefits of the industry standard 6N137 family with the added benefit of HCMOS compatible input current. This allows direct interface to all common circuit topologies without additional LED buffer or drive components. The AlGaAs LED used allows lower drive currents and reduces degradation by using the latest LED technology. On the single channel parts, an enable output allows the detector to be strobed. The output of the detector IC is an open collector schottky-clamped transistor. The internal shield provides a minimum common mode transient immunity of 1000 V/s for the HCPL-261A family and 15000 V/s for the HCPL-261N family. * HCMOS/LSTTL/TTL performance compatible Functional Diagram HCPL-261A/261N HCPL-061A/061N * Available in 8 pin DIP, SOIC-8 packages * Safety approval: - UL recognized per UL1577 3750 V rms for 1 minute and 5000 V rms for 1 minute (Option 020) - CSA Approved - IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-2 approved 1 8 VCC * Low input current (3.0 mA) HCMOS compatible version of 6N137 optocoupler VE CATHODE 1 2 7 VO1 * Isolated line receiver 6 VO CATHODE 2 3 6 VO2 * Simplex/multiplex data transmission 5 GND ANODE 2 4 5 GND * Computer-peripheral interface 8 VCC ANODE 2 7 CATHODE 3 NC 4 TRUTH TABLE (POSITIVE LOGIC) ENABLE H H L L NC NC * AC and DC performance specified over industrial temperature range -40C to +85C ANODE 1 1 LED ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF * High speed: 10 MBd typical Applications HCPL-263A/263N HCPL-063A/063N NC SHIELD * 1000 V/s minimum Common Mode Rejection (CMR) at VCM = 50 V (HCPL-261A family) and 15 kV/s minimum CMR at VCM = 1000 V (HCPL-261N family) OUTPUT L H H H L H SHIELD TRUTH TABLE (POSITIVE LOGIC) LED ON OFF OUTPUT L H * Digital isolation for A/D, D/A conversion * Switching power supplies * Instrumentation input/output isolation * Ground loop elimination * Pulse transformer replacement The connection of a 0.1 F bypass capacitor between pins 5 and 8 is required.

Device considered a two-terminal device: Pins 1, 2, 3, and 4 shorted together and Pins 5, 6, 7, and 8 shorted together. 6. In accordance with UL1577, each optocoupler is proof tested by applying an insulation test voltage 4500 VRMS for 1 second (leakage detection current limit, II-O 5 A). This test is performed before the 100% production test for partial discharge (method b) shown in the IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-2 Insulation Characteristics Table, if applicable. 7. In accordance with UL1577, each optocoupler is proof tested by applying an insulation test voltage 6000 VRMS for 1 second (leakage detection current limit, II-O 5 A). 8. Measured between the LED anode and cathode shorted together and pins 5 through 8 shorted together. 9. The tPLH propagation delay is measured from the 1.75 mA point on the falling edge of the input pulse to the 1.5 V point on the rising edge of the output pulse. 10. The tPHL propagation delay is measured from the 1.75 mA point on the rising edge of the input pulse to the 1.5 V point on the falling edge of the output pulse. 11. Propagation delay skew (tPSK) is equal to the worst case difference in tPLH and/or tPHL that will be seen between any two units under the same test conditions and operating temperature. 12. Single channel products only (HCPL-261A/261N/061A/061N). 13. Common mode transient immunity in a Logic High level is the maximum tolerable |dVCM/dt| of the common mode pulse, VCM, to assure that the output will remain in a Logic High state (i.e., Vo > 2.0 V). 14. Common mode transient immunity in a Logic Low level is the maximum tolerable |dVCM/dt| of the common mode pulse, VCM, to assure that the output will remain in a Logic Low state (i.e., VO < 0.8 V). 15. For sinusoidal voltages (|dVCM /dt|)max = fCM VCM(P-P). 16. Bypassing of the power supply line is required with a 0.1 F ceramic disc capacitor adjacent to each optocoupler as shown in Figure 19. Total lead length between both ends of the capacitor and the isolator pins should not exceed 10 mm. 17. Pulse Width Distortion (PWD) is defined as the difference between tPLH and tPHL for any given device. 18. No external pull up is required for a high logic state on the enable input of a single channel product. If the VE pin is not used, tying VE to VCC will result in improved CMR performance. 19.

HCPL-261A fig 18 Application Information SINGLE CHANNEL PRODUCTS GND BUS (BACK) Common-Mode Rejection for HCPL261A/HCPL-261N Families: VCC BUS (FRONT) Figure 20 shows the recommended drive circuit for the HCPL-261N/261A for optimal common-mode rejection performance. Two main points to note are: N.C. ENABLE (IF USED) 0.1F OUTPUT 1 N.C. 1. The enable pin is tied to VCC rather than floating (this applies to single-channel parts only). N.C. ENABLE (IF USED) 0.1F N.C. 2. Two LED-current setting resistors are used instead of one. This is to balance ILED variation during common-mode transients. OUTPUT 2 If the enable pin is left floating, it is possible for common-mode transients to couple to the enable pin, resulting in common-mode failure. This failure mechanism only occurs when the LED is on and the output is in the Low State. It is identified as occurring when the transient output voltage rises above 0.8 V. Therefore, the enable pin should be connected to either VCC or logic-level high for best common-mode performance with the output low (CMRL). This failure mechanism is only present in single-channel parts (HCPL-261N, -261A, 061N, -061A) which have the enable function. 10 mm MAX.

Figure 20. Recommended drive circuit for HCPL-261A/-261N families for high-CMR (similar for HCPL263A/-263N). HCPL-261A fig 19 14 Also, common-mode transients can capacitively couple from the LED anode (or cathode) to the output-side ground causing current to be shunted away from the LED (which can be bad if the LED is on) or conversely cause current to be injected into the LED (bad if the LED is meant to be off ). Figure 21 shows the parasitic capacitances which exists between LED anode/cathode and output ground (CLA and CLC). Also shown in Figure 21 on the input side is an ACequivalent circuit. CMR with Other Drive Circuits Table 1 indicates the directions of ILP and ILN flow depending on the direction of the common-mode transient. CMR performance with drive circuits other than that shown in Figure 20 may be enhanced by following these guidelines: For transients occurring when the LED is on, commonmode rejection (CMRL, since the output is in the "low" state) depends upon the amount of LED current drive (IF). For conditions where IF is close to the switching threshold (ITH), CMRL also depends on the extent which ILP and ILN balance each other. In other words, any condition where common-mode transients cause a momentary decrease in IF (i.e. when dVCM /dt>0 and |IFP| > |IFN|, referring to Table 1) will cause common-mode failure for transients which are fast enough. 1. Use of drive circuits where current is shunted from the LED in the LED "off" state (as shown in Figures 22 and 23). This is beneficial for good CMRH. 2. Use of IFH > 3.5 mA. This is good for high CMRL. Using any one of the drive circuits in Figures 22-24 with IF = 10 mA will result in a typical CMR of 8 kV/s for the HCPL-261N family, as long as the PC board layout practices are followed. Figure 22 shows a circuit which can be used with any totem-pole-output TTL/LSTTL/HCMOS logic gate. The buffer PNP transistor allows the circuit to be used with logic devices which have low current-sinking capability. It also helps maintain the driving-gate power-supply current at a constant level to minimize ground shifting for other devices connected to the input-supply ground. Likewise for common-mode transients which occur when the LED is off (i.e. CMRH, since the output is "high"), if an imbalance between ILP and ILN results in a transient IF equal to or greater than the switching threshold of the optocoupler, the transient "signal" may cause the output to spike below 2 V (which constitutes a CMRH failure). By using the recommended circuit in Figure 20, good CMR can be achieved. (In the case of the -261N families, a minimum CMR of 15 kV/s is guaranteed using this circuit.) The balanced ILED-setting resistors help equalize ILP and ILN to reduce the amount by which ILED is modulated from transient coupling through CLA and CLC. When using an open-collector TTL or open-drain CMOS logic gate, the circuit in Figure 23 may be used. When using a CMOS gate to drive the optocoupler, the circuit shown in Figure 24 may be used. The diode in parallel with the RLED speeds the turn-off of the optocoupler LED.

The propagation delay from low to high (tPLH) is the amount of time required for an input signal to propagate to the output, causing the output to change from low to high. Similarly, the propagation delay from high to low (tPHL) is the amount of time required for the input signal to propagate to the output, causing the output to change from high to low (see Figure 9). Pulse-width distortion (PWD) results when tPLH and tPHL differ in value. PWD is defined as the difference between tPLH and tPHL and often determines the maximum data rate capability of a transmission system. PWD can be expressed in percent by dividing the PWD (in ns) by the minimum pulse width (in ns) being transmitted. Typically, PWD on the order of 20-30% of the minimum pulse width is tolerable; the exact figure depends on the particular application (RS232, RS422, T-1, etc.). Propagation delay skew, tPSK, is an important parameter to consider in parallel data applications where synchro- 2 3 4 Figure 23. TTL open-collector/open drain gate drive circuit for HCPL-261A/-261N families. 1 HCPL-261A fig 23 If |ILP| < |ILN|, LED IF Current Is Momentarily: increased decreased If |ILP| > |ILN|, LED IF Current Is Momentarily: decreased increased nization of signals on parallel data lines is a concern. If the parallel data is being sent through a group of opto couplers, differences in propagation delays will cause the data to arrive at the outputs of the optocouplers at different times. If this difference in propagation delay is large enough it will determine the maximum rate at which parallel data can be sent through the optocouplers. Propagation delay skew is defined as the difference between the minimum and maximum propagation delays, either tPLH or tPHL, for any given group of optocouplers which are operating under the same conditions (i.e., the same drive current, supply voltage, output load, and operating temperature). As illustrated in Figure 25, if the inputs of a group of optocouplers are switched either ON or OFF at the same time, tPSK is the difference between the shortest propagation delay, either tPLH or tPHL, and the longest propagation delay, either tPLH or tPHL. As mentioned earlier, tPSK can determine the maximum parallel data transmission rate. Figure 26 is the timing diagram of a typical parallel data application with both the clock and the data lines being sent through optocouplers. The figure shows data and clock signals at the inputs and outputs of the optocouplers. To obtain the maximum data transmission rate, both edges of the clock signal are being used to clock the data; if only one edge were used, the clock signal would need to be twice as fast. Propagation delay skew represents the uncertainty of where an edge might be after being sent through an optocoupler. Figure 26 shows that there will be uncertainty in both the data and the clock lines. It is important that these two areas of uncertainty not overlap, otherwise the clock signal might arrive before all of the data outputs have settled, or some of the data outputs may start IF to change before the clock signal has arrived. From these considerations, the absolute minimum pulse width that can be sent through optocouplers in a parallel application is twice tPSK. A cautious design should use a slightly longer pulse width to ensure that any additional uncertainty in the rest of the circuit does not cause a problem. The tPSK specified optocouplers offer the advantages of guaranteed specifications for propagation delays, pulsewidth distortion, and propagation delay skew over the recommended temperature, input current, and power supply ranges. 50% 1.5 V VO TPHL IF 50% VO TPLH 1.5 V t PSK Figure 25.
