Description
The CPC1560 is a 1-Form-A (Single Pole, Normally
Open) optically isolated MOSFET switch that provides
fast turn-on of loads up to 600mADC in a DC-Only
configuration, 300mArms in an AC/DC configuration;
active current-limit circuitry; and 3750Vrms of I/O
isolation.
Fast turn-on is accomplished with the use of an
external charge storage capacitor that provides the
necessary charge required by the internal switching
MOSFETs. The device charges this capacitor, through
bootstrap diodes, from the load voltage, thereby
alleviating the need for an additional power supply.
The CPC1560 incorporates thermal shutdown
circuitry for improved survivability in harsh
environments, and is designed to pass regulatory
voltage surge requirements when provided with
appropriate over-voltage protection circuitry.
Designed specifically for environmentally demanding
AC or DC applications, where printed circuit board
space is at a premium and additional power supplies
are not available, the CPC1560 is an ideal solution.

2. Introduction
The CPC1560 is an optically coupled Solid State
Relay (SSR) that is self-biased from the load supply.
An external charge storage capacitor is used to greatly
speed up SSR turn-on. The CPC1560 also
incorporates current limiting and a thermal shutdown
feature in the output circuitry, which make the device
ideal for use in harsh conditions.
3. Functional Description
Internally, the device is composed of an LED, a
photovoltaic array with control circuitry, and two
MOSFET output switches.
Input current to the LED is the turn-on signal to the
SSR’s output MOSFET switches. The LED illuminates
the photovoltaics, which provide current to the gates of
the output MOSFETs, causing them to conduct. The
charge provided to the MOSFET gates initially
includes the charge stored in the external capacitor,
which causes the SSR to conduct much more quickly
than if only the photovoltaic current were used.
When the Load Voltage (VL) is first applied to the
inactive outputs, the external storage capacitor begins
to charge. To ensure proper operation, the storage
capacitor should be equal to or greater than the total
gate capacitance of the two output MOSFET switches.
The charge is passed through bootstrap diodes, which
prevent the charge from escaping and discharging the
capacitor through the MOSFET output switch when
the SSR is turned on. The input control current is
applied, then the charge is transferred from the
storage capacitor through the internal NPN bipolar
transistor along with the charge from the photovoltaic,
to the MOSFET gates to accomplish a rapid turn-on.
After the capacitor has discharged and the MOSFETs
have turned on, the photocurrent from the photovoltaic
continues to flow into the gates, keeping the
MOSFETs turned on.
When the input control current is removed, the gate
current stops flowing and the PNP bipolar transistor is
on, discharging the MOSFET gates. The MOSFETs
are now off. At this point the capacitor begins to
recharge for the next turn on cycle.
The non-conducting, optical coupling space between
the LED and the photovoltaics provides 3750Vrms of
isolation between the control input and the switched
output of the CPC1560.
Important things to note about the operation of the
CPC1560:
•The device is designed to maintain its guaranteed
operating characteristics with DC input control
current (IF) in the range of 2.5mA to 10mA (see
“Recommended Operating Conditions” on page 4). The
device will operate at input currents above and below
this range, but device operating characteristics are
not guaranteed.
•There is a minimum LED input current required for
the device to shut off: typically about 0.43mA at 25°C
(see “Electrical Specifications” on page 5).
•The output switch will only withstand a maximum of
60 volts across its terminals before breaking down
(see“Absolute Maximum Ratings” on page 3). The
maximum voltage generally occurs when the load is
off.
The CPC1560 has two different operating
configurations: unidirectional DC-only configuration,
and bidirectional AC/DC configuration.
In the unidirectional DC-only configuration, the device
switches load voltages with a fixed polarity, while in the
AC/DC configuration it can switch voltages with either
positive or negative polarities.
The advantage of operating the device in the DC-only
configuration is the ability to switch larger load
currents. The advantage of operating it in the AC/DC
configuration is the flexibility of switching load voltages
of either polarity.
4. Device Configuration
4.1 LED Resistor
To assure proper operation of the CPC1560, the LED
resistor selection should comply with the
recommended operating conditions. Although the LED
is capable of being operated up to the absolute
maximum ratings, this is not recommended.
Operating the LED beyond the recommended
operating conditions may prevent the current limit and
thermal shutdown functions from performing properly.
The equation used to calculate the max resistor value:
•IF_MIN = Minimum Input Control Current
•VIN_MIN = Minimum Input Power Source
•VLOW_MAX = Maximum Logic Level Low Voltage
•VF_MAX = Maximum Forward Voltage Drop of LED
•RLED_MAX = Maximum Input Resistor to LED
RLED_MAX =

4.2 Storage Capacitor
The CPC1560 requires the use of an external
capacitor (CEXT) to meet the device’s specifications.
This external storage capacitor enables the relay to
turn on quickly by holding a reservoir of charge to be
transferred to the gates of the MOSFET pair. The
capacitor must have a minimum working voltage
greater than the load voltage, and must be connected
from pin 8 (C+), the capacitor’s positive voltage
terminal, to pin 5 (C-), the capacitor’s negative voltage
terminal.
Proper selection of the external capacitor begins with
the recommended range provided in the
“Recommended Operating Conditions” on page 4, and the
maximum voltage at the CPC1560 outputs, including
transients and faults. The nominal value of the
capacitor needs to be chosen so that when the effects
of tolerance, temperature coefficient, and (for some
types of capacitor) derating due to bias voltage are
accounted for, the capacitor’s value remains within the
recommended range over the operational conditions
of the end product.
5. Operational Behavior
5.1 Operating Frequency
5.1.1 Duty Cycle/Power Dissipation
Equation 1 shows the relationship between power
dissipation, operating frequency, and duty cycle for the
CPC1560 device. From this equation, it can be seen
that both switching frequency (fswitch) and duty cycle
(D) contribute to power dissipation. The first one by
generating switching losses, and the second one by
generating ON losses. Switching losses are those
caused by changes in the energy state of the load
components when the device is switching on and off
(i.e. ERISE and EFALL), and ON losses are those
caused by the flow of current (IL) through the part’s
on-resistance (RON) when it is switched on.
Because a higher operating frequency translates into
higher power consumed by the part, care must be
taken to limit its value in order to protect the device
from exceeding its maximum power rating. When
doing this, both the maximum allowed power
dissipation in the part and the ON duty cycle,
D=tON / (tON+tOFF), must be taken into consideration.
5.1.2 Temperature Effects
When setting the operating frequency of the
CPC1560, the user must also take into account power
dissipation over temperature.
5.1.3 Elements of Operating Frequency
In addition to ambient temperature, the maximum
frequency of the CPC1560 is also determined by the
MOSFET’s turn-on and turn-off times and the load
voltage rise and fall times as follows:
Where 1/3 is a multiplication factor for temperature
and process variations.
5.2 Switching Losses
During the transition intervals of the switching process,
the load components change energy states, which
results in switching losses as the energy passes
through the MOSFETs. This energy transfer is
manifested in the form of heat dissipation and must be
taken into consideration.
Energy is transferred during the turn-off intervals. This
energy, called Erise, will be absorbed by the MOSFET
output switches, and if present parasitic load
capacitance and the protection device.
Energy is also transferred during the turn-on intervals
and is called Efall. This energy will be absorbed by the
MOSFET output switches, which is why this energy
should be limited to the “peak turn-on energy” values
specified in the Absolute Maximum Ratings Table of
this datasheet.
The user of the CPC1560 device must understand the
details of the load behavior and keep in mind the
device’s recommended operating conditions in order
to adequately size the load components and protect
the application circuit.
The average power of the CPC1560 output MOSFET
for any specific application and for any load type given
by Equation 1 and repeated here is:
From this equation we can see how the switching
losses (ERISE and EFALL), together with the “on
losses,” contribute to the CPC1560’s output power
dissipation.
The user must also know that the recommended
operating conditions for IL, fSWITCH, load capacitance
(1) Pavg = IL2 • RON • D + fswitch • (ERISE + EFALL)
(2) fMAX = (tON + tOFF)

(CLOAD) and load Inductance (LLOAD), along with other
recommended operating conditions given in this
datasheet, are constrained by the 85°C operation of
most industrial applications. For lower operating
temperature ranges, these values can be de-rated
using the information provided in the temperature
graphs in this datasheet.
5.2.1 Effects of Ambient Temperature
One of the most important factors is the temperature
variation of the environment. From the Maximum
Allowed Energy Dissipation During tRISE graphs
(AC and DC) in this datasheet, the user can see how
the energy dissipated in the part during tRISE
increases with increasing ambient temperature.
The operating frequency of the device is directly
related to the amount of energy dissipated in it during
the transition times, tRISE and tFALL, which increases
rapidly with temperature, as seen in the previously
mentioned graphs. Depending on the operating
temperature range of the application, the user must
derate the maximum allowed energy in the part during
tRISE and tFALL (according to the temperature graphs
provided) in order to limit the operating switching
frequency.
5.3 Current Limit and Thermal Shutdown
5.3.1 Current Limit
The CPC1560 has a current limit feature in which
current through the output switches is limited to a
value larger than the recommended operating current.
In the AC/DC configuration, the CPC1560 has
bidirectional current limiting, which consists of current
limit circuits in both positive and negative polarities. In
the DC-only configuration, the DC current limit
consists of the parallel of the two AC current limit
circuits in the positive DC polarity.
The current limit function has a negative temperature
coefficient in which increasing temperature lowers the
current limit threshold of the device. Prolonged periods
of current limiting will cause the temperature of the
device to increase, and, if allowed to continue, will
activate the device’s thermal shutdown circuitry,
forcing the output switches to turn off.
5.3.2 Thermal Shutdown
The purpose of the thermal shutdown feature is to
completely shut down the operation of the device
when its junction temperature has gone above 130°C,
whether this is due to high power dissipation in the
device in the form of heat or an increase in the
ambient temperature.
The thermal shutdown feature and the current limit
feature provide great power cross immunity to the
device for improved survivability in harsh
environments.
5.4 dV/dt Fault Tolerance
The CPC1560 device has a finite dV/dt fault tolerance
for both the AC/DC and DC-only configurations, which
must not be exceeded.
The dV/dt tolerance for the device in the AC/DC
configuration is double that of the DC-only
configuration (see “Absolute Maximum Ratings” on
page 3). This is because the dV/dt value of the
CPC1560 is inversely proportional to the size of the
output switch’s Crss, or “reverse transfer capacitance,”
and this capacitance in the DC-only configuration is
double that in the AC/DC configuration.
5.5 Power Derating
Bear in mind the power rating of the CPC1560 when
operating the device at elevated temperatures. The
Absolute Maximum Ratings table shows that the
maximum allowed power dissipation at 25°C is
800mW, which is the maximum power that can be
dissipated before the junction temperature of the
device reaches 125°C.
In order to keep the CPC1560 operating within its
power rating, use the Maximum Allowed Load Current
graphs provided earlier in this document.

R00F PRELIMINARY 11
5.6 Rise and Fall Times
The CPC1560 has rise and fall times that are primarily
limited by internal parasitic elements of the device; the
load components only play a secondary role. This can
be appreciated in the turn-off graph of an application
circuit operating at 45V, where the slope of the load
voltage starts scooping down into a more capacitive
shape after approximately 15 volts.
5.7 Over-Voltage Protection
5.7.1 Stored Energy in the Load
During the CPC1560’s switching periods, energy is
transferred between the load components, the
CPC1560 device, and, if used, the over-voltage
protection circuitry.
When the output switch turns off, inductive loads
(LLOAD) transfer their stored energy into the MOSFET
switches, the load capacitance, and the over-voltage
protector. (See the turn-off graph for a 45V inductive
load application circuit.)
When the output switch turns on, the energy in the
load inductor is zero, and the load capacitor (CLOAD)
must transfer its stored energy into the MOSFET.

5.7.2 Protection Methods
One way to protect the CPC1560 and application
circuit components from damage when excessive
stored energy is suddenly released into the output
MOSFETs of the CPC1560, is to add a Transient
Voltage Suppressor (TVS) across the output switches.
Use a unidirectional TVS from the outputs to C- for the
DC-only configuration, and use a bidirectional TVS
across the output pins for the AC/DC configuration as
shown in the diagrams below.
In order to calculate the required TVS value, the user
has to compare working voltage of the application
circuit to the breakdown voltage of the CPC1560 with
the TVS maximum clamping voltage ratings. The TVS
maximum clamping voltage capability must be, at a
minimum, equal to the specific peak pulse current of
the load. This must be done to ensure the TVS can
easily absorb any excess energy coming from the
inductive load (LLOAD).
In addition to the TVS, other protection techniques are
also available depending on the type of load the user
is trying to switch. For purely resistive loads the user
may rely on the output transistor to handle any
parasitic energy. For very low to moderately inductive
loads (e.g. remote switching of a load through a long
cable), a voltage suppressor or TVS can be used as
explained before. For heavily inductive loads, a
fly-back diode connected across the load element is
recommended
For much higher inductive loads, other circuit
techniques, device ratings and/or protector types must
be considered1. Of paramount importance is that the
designer know the characteristics of the load being
switched.
