The LED is optically coupled to an integrated high gain photo detector. The HCPL-4504 series has short propagation delays and high CTR. The HCPL-4504 series also has a guaranteed propagation delay difference (tPLH-tPHL). These Functional Diagram NC 1 8 VCC ANODE 2 7 NC TRUTH TABLE LED VO CATHODE 3 6 VO ON OFF NC 4 LOW HIGH 5 GND A 0.1 F bypass capacitor between pins 5 and 8 is recommended. CAUTION: It is advised that normal static precautions be taken in handling and assembly of this component to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be induced by ESD. 2 features make the HCPL-4504 series an excellent solution to IPM inverter dead time and other switching problems. The CTR, propagation delay, and CMR are specified both for TTL and IPM conditions which are provided for ease of application. These single channel, diode-transistor optocouplers are available in 8-Pin DIP, SO-8, and Widebody package configurations. An insulating layer between a LED and an integrated photodetector provide electrical insulation between input and output. Separate connections for the photodiode bias and outputtransistor collector increase the speed up to a hundred times that of a conventional phototransistor coupler by reducing the base collector capacitance.

These dimensions are needed as a starting point for the equipment designer when determining the circuit insulation requirements. However, once mounted on a printed circuit board, minimum IIIa IIIa IIIa creepage and clearance requirements must be met as specified for individual equipment standards. For creepage, the shortest distance path along the surface of a printed circuit board between the solder fillets of the input and output leads must be considered. There are recommended techniques such as grooves and IIIa Material Group (DIN VDE 0110, 1/89, Table 1) ribs which may be used on a printed circuit board to achieve desired creepage and clearances. Creepage and clearance distances will also change depending on factors such as pollution degree and insulation level. 8 VDE 0884 Insulation Related Characteristics Description Symbol Installation classification per DIN VDE 0110/1.89, Table 1 for rated mains voltage 150 V rms for rated mains voltage 300 V rms for rated mains voltage 450 V rms for rated mains voltage 600 V rms for rated mains voltage 1000 V rms Climatic Classification Pollution Degree (DIN VDE 0110/1.89) Maximum Working Insulation Voltage VIORM Input to Output Test Voltage, Method b* VPR VIORM x 1.875 = VPR, 100% Production Test with tm = 1 sec, Partial Discharge < 5 pC Input to Output Test Voltage, Method a* VPR VIORM x 1.5 = VPR, Type and Sample Test, tm = 60 sec, Partial Discharge < 5 pC Highest Allowable Overvoltage* VIOTM (Transient Overvoltage, tini = 10 sec) Safety Limiting Values - Maximum Values Allowed in the Event of a Failure, also see Thermal Derating curve Case Temperature Input Current Output Power Insulation Resistance at TS, VIO = 500 V TS IS,INPUT PS,OUTPUT RS HCPL-0454 HCPL-4504 OPTION 060 OPTION 060 HCPL-J454 HCNW4504 Unit V peak I-IV I-III I-IV I-IV I-III I-IV I-IV I-III I-III 55/100/21 2 560 55/100/21 2 630 55/100/21 2 891 I-IV I-IV I-IV I-IV I-III 55/85/21 2 1414 1050 1181 1670 2652 V peak 840 945 1336 2121 V peak 4000 6000 6000 8000 V peak 150 150 600 109 175 230 600 109 175 400 600 109 150 400 700 109 C mA mW *Refer to the optocoupler section of the Designer's Catalog, under regulatory information (VDE 0884) for a detailed description of Method a and Method b partial discharge test profiles.

LED Delay and Dead Time Diagram. Power Inverter Dead Time and Propagation Delay Specifications The HCPL-4504/0454/J454 and HCNW4504 include a specification intended to help designers minimize "dead time" in their power inverter designs. The new "propagation delay difference" specification (tPLH - tPHL) is useful for determining not only how much optocoupler switching delay is needed to prevent "shootthrough" current, but also for determining the best achievable worst-case dead time for a given design. When inverter power transistors switch (Q1 and Q2 in Figure 17), it is essential that they never conduct at the same time. Extremely large currents will flow if there is any overlap in their conduction during switching transitions, potentially damaging the transistors and even the surrounding circuitry. This "shootthrough" current is eliminated by delaying the turn-on of one transistor (Q2) long enough to ensure that the opposing transistor (Q1) has completely turned off. This delay introduces a small amount of "dead time" at the output of the inverter during which both transistors are off during switching transitions. Minimizing this dead time is an important design goal for an inverter designer. The amount of turn-on delay needed depends on the propagation delay characteristics of the optocoupler, as well as the characteristics of the transistor base/gate drive circuit. Considering only the delay characteristics of the optocoupler (the characteristics of the base/gate drive circuit can be analyzed in the 18 same way), it is important to know the minimum and maximum turn-on (tPHL) and turnoff (tPLH) propagation delay specifications, preferably over the desired operating temperature range. The importance of these specifications is illustrated in Figure 17. The waveforms labeled "LED1", "LED2", "OUT1", and "OUT2" are the input and output voltages of the optocoupler circuits driving Q1 and Q2 respectively. Most inverters are designed such that the power transistor turns on when the optocoupler LED turns on; this ensures that both power transistors will be off in the event of a power loss in the control circuit. Inverters can also be designed such that the power transistor turns off when the optocoupler LED turns on; this type of design, however, requires additional fail-safe circuitry to turn off the power transistor if an over-current condition is detected. The timing illustrated in Figure 17 assumes that the power transistor turns on when the optocoupler LED turns on. The LED signal to turn on Q2 should be delayed enough so that an optocoupler with the very fastest turn-on propagation delay (tPHLmin) will never turn on before an optocoupler with the very slowest turn-off propagation delay (tPLHmax) turns off. To ensure this, the turn-on of the optocoupler should be delayed by an amount no less than (tPLHmax - tPHLmin), which also happens to be the maximum data sheet value for the propagation delay difference specification, (tPLH - tPHL). The HCPL-4504/0454/J454 and HCNW4504 specify a maximum (tPLH - tPHL) of 1.3 s over an operating temperature range of 0-70C. Although (tPLH-tPHL)max tells the designer how much delay is needed to prevent shoot-through current, it is insufficient to tell the designer how much dead time a design will have. Assuming that the optocoupler turn-on delay is exactly equal to (t PLH - t PHL)max, the minimum dead time is zero (i.e., there is zero time between the turnoff of the very slowest optocoupler and the turn-on of the very fastest optocoupler). Calculating the maximum dead time is slightly more complicated. Assuming that the LED turn-on delay is still exactly equal to (tPLH - tPHL)max, it can be seen in Figure 17 that the maximum dead time is the sum of the maximum difference in turn-on delay plus the maximum difference in turnoff delay, [(tPLHmax-tPLHmin)+(tPHLmax-tPHLmin)]. This expression can be rearranged to obtain [(tPLHmax-tPHLmin)-(tPHLmin-tPHLmax)], and further rearranged to obtain [(tPLH-tPHL)max -(tPLH-tPHL)min], which is the maximum minus the minimum data sheet values of (tPLH-tPHL). The difference between the maximum and minimum values depends directly on the total spread in propagation delays and sets the limit on how good the worst-case dead time can be for a given design. Therefore, optocouplers with tight propagation delay specifications (and not just shorter delays or lower pulse-width distortion) can achieve short dead times in power inverters. The HCPL-4504/0454/J454 and HCNW4504 specify a minimum (tPLH - tPHL) of -0.7 s over an operating temperature range of 0-70C, resulting in a maximum dead time of 2.0 s when the LED turn-on delay is equal to (tPLH-tPHL)max, or 1.3 s. It is important to maintain accurate LED turn-on delays because delays shorter than (tPLH - tPHL)max may allow shootthrough currents, while longer delays will increase the worst-case dead time. www.semiconductor.agilent.com Data subject to change.
