1 ACPL-6L, ACPL-M6L, ACPL-W6L, ACPL-K6L Ultra-Low-Power MBd Digital CMOS Optocouplers Data Sheet Description The Avago ultra-low-power ACPL-x6xL digital optocouplers combine an AlGaAs light emitting diode (LED) and an integrated high gain photodetector. The optocoupler consumes extremely low power, at maximum. ma I DD current per channel across temperature. With a forward LED current as low as.6 ma, most microprocessors can directly drive the LED. An internal Faraday shield provides a guaranteed common-mode transient immunity specification of 2 kv/μs. Maximum AC and DC circuit isolation is achieved while maintaining TTL/CMOS compatibility. The optocouplers' CMOS outputs are slew-rate controlled and designed to allow the rise and fall time to be controlled over a wide load-capacitance range. The ACPL-x6xL series operates from both.v and V supply voltages with guaranteed AC and DC performance from C to + C. These low-power optocouplers are suitable for high speed logic interface applications.

10 Supply Bypassing, LED Bias Resistors and PC Board Layout The ACPL-x6xL optocouplers are extremely easy to use and feature high-speed, push-pull CMOS outputs. Pull-up resistors are not required. The external components required for proper operation are the input limiting resistors and the output bypass capacitor. Capacitor values should be. μf. For each capacitor, the total lead length connecting the capacitor to the V DD and GND pins should not exceed 2 mm.

11 Propagation Delay, Pulse-Width Distortion, and Propagation Delay Skew Propagation delay is a figure of merit that describes how quickly a logic signal propagates through a system. The propagation delay from low-to-high (t PLH ) 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 (t PHL ) 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 t PLH and t PHL differ in value. PWD is defined as the difference between t PLH and t PHL. PWD determines the maximum data rate 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, a PWD of 2-% of the minimum pulse width is tolerable; the exact figure depends on the particular application (RS22, RS22, T-, etc.). Propagation delay skew, t PSK, is an important parameter to consider in parallel data applications where synchronization of signals on parallel data lines is a concern. If the parallel data is being sent through a group of optocouplers, differences in propagation delays will cause the data to arrive at the outputs of the optocouplers at different times. If this difference in propagation delays 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 t PLH or t PHL, for any given group of optocouplers which are operating under the same conditions (i.e., the same supply voltage, output load, and operating temperature). As shown in Figure, if the inputs of a group of optocouplers are switched either ON or OFF at the same time, t PSK is the difference between the shortest propagation delay, either t PLH or t PHL, and the longest propagation delay, either t PLH or t PHL. As mentioned earlier, t PSK can determine the maximum parallel data transmission rate. Figure 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 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 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 t PSK. 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 t PSK specified optocouplers offer the advantages of guaranteed specifications for propagation delays, pulsewidth distortion and propagation delay skew over the recommended temperature, and power supply ranges.

12 Optocoupler CMR Performance The principal protection against common-mode noise comes from the fundamental isolation properties of the optocoupler, and this in turn is directly related to the Input-Output leakage capacitance of the optocoupler. To provide maximum protection to circuitry connected to the input or output of the optocoupler, the leakage capacitance is minimized by having large separation distances at all points in the optocoupler construction, including the LED/photodiode interface. In addition to the optocouplers' basic physical construction, additional circuit design steps mitigate the effects of common-mode noise. The most important of these is the Faraday shield on the photodetector stage. A Faraday shield is effective in optocouplers because the internal modulation frequency (light) is many orders of magnitude higher than the common-mode noise frequency. Improving CMR Performance at the Application Level In an end application, it is desirable that the optocouplers' common-mode isolation be as close as possible to that indicated in the data sheet specifications. The first step in meeting this goal is to ensure maximum separation between PCB interconnects on either side of the optocoupler is maintained and that PCB tracks beneath the optocoupler are avoided. It is inevitable that a certain amount of CMR noise will be coupled into the inputs and this can potentially result in false-triggering of the input. This problem is frequently observed in devices with high input impedance. In some cases, this can cause momentary missing pulses and may even cause input circuitry to latch-up in some alternate technologies. The ACPL-x6xL optocoupler family does not have an input latch-up issue. Even at very high CMR levels, such as those experienced in end equipment level tests (for example IEC6--), the ACPL-x6xL series is immune to latch-up because of the simple diode structure of the LED. In some cases, achieving the rated data sheet CMR performance level is not possible in an application. This is often because of the practical requirement to actually connect the isolator input to the output of a dynamically changing signal rather than statically tying the input to V DD or GND. A data sheet CMR specmanship issue is often seen with alternative technology isolators that are based on AC-encoding techniques. To address achievable end application performance on data sheets, the ACPL-x6xL optocouplers include an additional typical performance specification for dynamic CMR in the electrical parameter table. The dynamic CMR specification indicates the typical achievable CMR performance as the input is toggled on or off during a CMR transient. The logic output of the ACPL-x6xL optocouplers is mainly controlled by LED current level, and since the LED current features very fast rise and fall times, dynamic noise immunity is essentially the same as static noise immunity. Despite their immunity to input latch-up and the excellent dynamic CMR immunity, ACPL-x6xL optocoupler devices are still potentially vulnerable to misoperation caused by turning the LED either on or off during a CMR disturbance. If the LED status could be ensured by design, the overall application level CMR performance would be that of the photodetector. To benefit from the inherently high CMR capabilities of the ACPL-x6xL family, take the following precautions when operating the LED at the application level. In particular, ensure that the LED stays either on or off during a CMR transient. Some common design techniques to accomplish this include the following: Keep the LED On: Overdrive the LED with a higher-than-required forward current. Keep the LED Off: i) Reverse bias the LED during the off state. ii) Minimize the off-state impedance across the anode and cathode of the LED during the off state. All of these methods allow the full CMR capability of the ACPL-x6xL family to be achieved, but they do have practical implementation issues or require a compromise on power consumption. There is, however, an effective method to meet the goal of maintaining the LED status during a CMR event with no other design compromises other than a single added resistor. This CMR optimization takes advantage of the differential connection to the LED. By ensuring the common-mode impedances at both the cathode and anode of the LED are equal, the CMR transient on the LED is effectively canceled. As shown in Figure, this is easily achieved by using two, instead of one, input bias resistors. 2

13 Split LED Bias Resistor for Optimum CMR Figure shows the recommended drive circuit for the ACPL-x6xL that gives optimum common-mode rejection. The two current-setting resistors balance the commonmode impedances at the LED s anode and cathode. 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 is not wanted when the LED should be on) or conversely causing current to be injected into the LED (which is not wanted when the LED should be off). Figure 2 shows the parasitic capacitances (C LA and C LC ) between the LED s anode and cathode, and output ground. Also shown in Figure 2 on the input side is an AC-equivalent circuit. Table shows that the directions of I LP and I LN depend on the polarity of the common-mode transient. For transients occurring when the LED is on, common-mode rejection (CM L, since the output is at "low" state) depends on LED current (I F ). For conditions where I F is close to For ACPL-M6L/W6L: V DD =.V: R = Ω ±%, R 2 = 6Ω ±% V DD =.V: R = Ω ±%, R 2 = 68Ω ±% R T = R + R 2 R /R 2. the switching threshold (I TH ), CM L also depends on the extent to which I LP and I LN balance each other. In other words, any condition where a common-mode transient causes a momentary decrease in I F (meaning when dv CM /dt > and I FP > I FN, referring to Table ) also causes a common-mode failure for transients that are fast enough. Likewise for a common-mode transient that occurs when the LED is off (meaning CM H, since the output is at "high" state), if an imbalance between I LP and I LN results in a transient I F equal to or greater than the switching threshold of the optocoupler, the transient signal may cause the output to spike below 2V, which constitutes a CM H failure. The resistors recommended in Figure include both the output impedance of the logic driver circuit and the external limiting resistor. The balanced I LED -setting resistors help equalize the common-mode voltage change at the anode and cathode. This reduces I LED changes caused by transient coupling through the parasitic capacitors C LA and C LC shown in Figure 2.

15 Slew-Rate Controlled Outputs Feature Typically, the output slew rate (rise and fall time) will vary with the output load, as more time is required to charge up the higher load. The propagation delay and the PWD both increase with the load capacitance. This will be an issue especially in parallel communication because different communication lines will have different load capacitances. However, Avago s new optocoupler ACPL-x6xL has a built-in slew-rate controlled feature to ensure that the output slew rate remains stable across wide load capacitance.
