Description

The ICPL3700 is a voltage/current threshold detection optocoupler. This optocoupler uses an internal light emitting diode, a threshold sensing input buffer IC, and a high gain photon detector to provide an optocoupler which permits adjustable external threshold levels. The input buffer circuit has a nominal turn-on threshold of 2.5 mA (Ith+) and 3.8 V (Vth+). The addition of one or more external attenuation resistors permits the use of this device over a wide range of input voltages and currents. Threshold sensing prior to the LED and detector elements minimises effects of different optical gain and LED variations over operating life (CTR degradation). Hysteresis is also provided in the buffer for extra noise immunity and switching stability. Surface Mount Option Available.

Notes

1. Current into/out of any single lead
2. Surge input current duration is 3ms at 120Hz pulse repetition rate. Transient input current duration is 10µs at 120Hz pulse repetition rate. Maximum input power, Pin, must be observed.
3. Maximum input power dissipation of 230mW allows an input IC junction temperature of 125°C at an ambient temperature of Ta=70°C with a typical thermal resistance from junction to ambient of Øjai=240°C/W. Excessive Pin and Tj may result in IC chip degradation.
4. Maximum output power dissipation of 210mW allows an output IC junction temperature of 125°C at an ambient temperature of Ta=70°C with a typical thermal resistance from junction to ambient of Øjao=265°C/W.
5. Maximum operating frequency is defined when output waveform (Pin 6) obtains only 90% of Vcc with Rl=4.7kohm, Cl=30pF using a 5V square wave input signal.
6. The tPHL (tPLH) propagation delay is measured from the 2.5V level of the leading (trailing) edge of a 5.0V input pulse, 1µs rise (fall) time, to the 1.5V level on the leading (trailing) edge of the output pulse.
7. Common mode transient immunity in Logic High (Low) Level is the maximum tolerable, positive (negative), dVcm/dt on the leading (trailing) edge of the common mode pulse signal, Vcm, to ensure that the output will remain in a Logic High (Low) state, ie. Vo>2.0V (Vo<0.8V).
8. In applications where dVcm/dt may exceed 50000V/µs (such as static discharge), a series resistor Rcc should be included to protect the detector IC from destructively high surge currents. The recommended value for Rcc is 240ohm per volt of allowable drop in Vcc between Pin 8 and Vcc with a minimum value of 240ohm.
9. Logic low output level at Pin 6 occurs under the conditions of Vin>=Vth+ as well as the range Vin>Vth- once Vin has exceeded Vth+. Logic high output level at Pin 6 occurs under the conditions of Vin<=Vth- as well as the range of Vin<Vth+ once Vin has decreased below Vth-.
10. AC voltage is instantaneous voltage.
11. Device considered a two-terminal device: Pins 1,2,3,4 connected together, and Pins 5,6,7,8 connected together.
