Agilent HCPL-5120 & HCPL-5121 DSCC SMD 5962-04204 2.0 Amp Output Current IGBT Gate Drive Optocoupler Data Sheet Description The HCPL- 5120 contains a GaAsP LED optically coupled to an integrated circuit with a power output stage. The device is ideally suited for driving power IGBTs and MOSFETs used in motor control inverter applications. The high operating voltage range of the output stage provides the drive voltages required by gate controlled devices. The voltage and current supplied by this optocoupler makes it ideally suited for directly driving IGBTs with ratings up to 1200 V/100 A. For IGBTs with higher ratings, the HCPL- 5120 can be used to drive a discrete power stage, which drives the IGBT gate. The products are capable of operation and storage over the full military temperature range and can be purchased as either commercial products, with full MIL- PRF- 38534 Class H testing, or from Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC) Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) 5962- 04204. All devices are manufactured and tested on a MIL- PRF- 38534 certified line and are included in the DSCC Qualified Manufacturers List, QML- 38534 for Hybrid Microcircuits.

CMR Test Circuit and Waveforms 11 Applications Information Eliminating Negative IGBT Gate Drive To keep the IGBT firmly off, the HCPL- 5120 has a very low maximum VOL specification of 0.5 V. The HCPL- 5120 realizes this very low VOL by using a DMOS transistor with 1 (typical) on resistance in its pull down circuit. When the HCPL- 5120 is in the low state, the IGBT gate is shorted to the emitter by Rg + 1 . Minimizing Rg and the lead inductance from the HCPL- 5120 to the IGBT gate and emitter (possibly by mounting the HCPL- 5120 on a small PC board directly above the IGBT) can eliminate the need for negative IGBT gate drive in many applications as shown in Figure 25. Care should be taken with such a PC board design to avoid routing the IGBT collector or emitter traces close to the HCPL- 5120 input as this can result in unwanted coupling of transient signals into the HCPL- 5120 and degrade performance. (If the IGBT drain must be routed near the HCPL- 5120 input, then the LED should be reverse- biased when in the off state, to prevent the transient signals coupled from the IGBT drain from turning on the HCPL- 5120.) Selecting the Gate Resistor (Rg) to Minimize IGBT Switching Losses. Step 1: Calculate Rg Minimum from the IOL Peak Specification. The IGBT and Rg in Figure 26 can be analyzed as a simple RC circuit with a voltage supplied by the HCPL- 5120. (VCC - VEE - VOL) Rg = ----------------- IOLPEAK (VCC - VEE - 2V) = ------------------ IOLPEAK (15 V + 5 V - 2V) = ------------------- 2.5 A Step 2: Check the HCPL-5120 Power Dissipation and Increase Rg if Necessary. The HCPL- 5120 total power dissipation (PT) is equal to the sum of the emitter power (PE) and the output power (PO): PT = PE + PO PE = IF * VF *Duty Cycle PO = PO(BIAS) + PO (SWITCHING) = ICC * (VCC - VEE) + ESW(Rg, Qg) * f For the circuit in Figure 26 with IF (worst case) = 18 mA, Rg = 8 , Max Duty Cycle = 80%, Qg = 500 nC, f = 20 kHz and TA max = 125C: PE = 18 mA*1.8 V*0.8 = 26 mW = 7.2 8 The VOL value of 2 V in the previous equation is a conservative value of VOL at the peak current of 2.5A (see Figure 6). At lower Rg values the voltage supplied by the HCPL5120 is not an ideal voltage step. This results in lower peak currents (more margin) than predicted by this analysis. When negative gate drive is not used VEE in the previous equation is equal to zero volts PO = 4.25 mA*20 V + 1.0 J * 20 kHz = 85 mW + 20 mW = 105 mW < 112 mW (PO(MAX) @ 125C = 250 mW - 23C * 6 mW/C) The value of 4.25 mA for ICC in the previous equation was obtained by derating the ICC max of 5 mA (which occurs at 55C) to ICC max at 125C. Since PO for this case is less than PO(MAX), Rg of 8 is appropriate. +5 V 1 270 8 0.1 F 2 + _ V CC = 18 V + HVDC 7 Rg CONTROL INPUT 74XXX OPEN COLLECTOR 3 6 4 5 Figure 25.

The HCPL5120 improves CMR performance by using a detector IC with an optically transparent Faraday shield, which diverts the capacitively coupled current away from the sensitive IC circuitry. However, this shield does not eliminate the capacitive coupling between the LED and optocoupler pins 5- 8 as shown in Figure 29. This capacitive coupling causes perturbations in the LED current during common mode transients and becomes the major source of CMR failures for a shielded optocoupler. The main design objective of a high CMR LED drive circuit becomes keeping the LED in the proper state (on or off) during common mode transients. For example, the recommended application circuit (Figure 25), can achieve 10 kV/s CMR while minimizing component complexity. Techniques to keep the LED in the proper state are discussed in the next two sections. 8 CLEDP 2 7 3 6 CLEDN 4 5 Figure 28. Optocoupler Input to Output Capacitance Model for Unshielded Optocouplers.

Energy Dissipated in the HCPL-5120 for Each IGBT Switching Cycle 13 CMR with the LED On (CMRH). CMR with the LED Off (CMRL). A high CMR LED drive circuit must keep the LED on during common mode transients. This is achieved by overdriving the LED current beyond the input threshold so that it is not pulled below the threshold during a transient. A minimum LED current of 10 mA provides adequate margin over the maximum IFLH of 7 mA to achieve 10 kV/s CMR. A high CMR LED drive circuit must keep the LED off (VF VF(OFF)) during common mode transients. For example, during a - dVcm/dt transient in Figure 30, the current flowing through CLEDP also flows through the RSAT and VSAT of the logic gate. As long as the low state voltage developed across the logic gate is less than VF(OFF), the LED will remain off and no common mode failure will occur. +5 V 1 8 1 0.1 F CLEDP + VSAT _ The open collector drive circuit, shown in Figure 31, cannot keep the LED off during a +dVcm/dt transient, since all the current flowing through CLEDN must be supplied by the LED, and it is not recommended for applications requiring ultra high CMRL performance. Figure 32 is an alternative drive circuit which, like the recommended application circuit (Figure 25), does achieve ultra high CMR performance by shunting the LED in the off state. 7 2 + _ V CC = 18 V CLEDP 2 ILEDP 3 6 CLEDN 8 +5 V *** Rg 3 Q1 7 6 CLEDN ILEDN 4 5 SHIELD * THE ARROWS INDICATE THE DIRECTION OF CURRENT FLOW DURING dVCM/dt + _ *** 4 5 SHIELD Figure 31.

The amount of delay necessary to achieve this conditions is equal to the maximum value of the propagation delay difference specification, PDDMAX, which is specified to be 350 ns over the operating temperature range of - 55C to 125C. Delaying the LED signal by the maximum propagation delay difference ensures that the minimum dead time is zero, but it does not tell a designer what the maximum dead time will be. The maximum dead time is equivalent to the difference between the maximum and minimum propagation delay difference specifications as shown in Figure 34. The maximum dead time for the HCPL- 5120 is 700 ns (= 350 ns - (- 350 ns)) over an operating temperature range of - 55C to 125C. optocouplers under consideration are typically mounted in close proximity to each other and are switching identical IGBTs.

Waveforms for Dead Time Calculations 50 300 250 40 PO - OUTPUT POWER - mW The HCPL- 5120 includes a Propagation Delay Difference (PDD) specification intended to help designers minimize "dead time" in their power inverter designs. Dead time is the time period during which both the high and low side power transistors (Q1 and Q2 in Figure 25) are off. Any overlap in Q1 and Q2 conduction will result in large currents flowing through the power devices between the high and low voltage motor rail Note that the propagation delays used to calculate PDD and dead time are taken at equal temperatures and test conditions since the PE - INPUT POWER - mW IPM Dead Time and Propagation Delay Specifications. 30 20 10 0 -55 case-to-ambient thermal resistance = 70 oC/W o = 140 C/W o = 210 C/W -25 5 35 95 65 o TA - AMBIENT TEMPERATURE - C Figure 35.

June 28, 2004 5989-0942EN 12 VO - OUTPUT VOLTAGE - V The HCPL-5120 contains an under voltage lockout (UVLO) feature that is designed to protect the IGBT under fault conditions which cause the HCPL-5120 supply voltage (equivalent to the fully-charged IGBT gate voltage) to drop below a level necessary to keep the IGBT in a low resistance state. When the HCPL5120 output is in the high state and the supply voltage drops below the HCPL-5120 VUVLO- threshold (9.5 < VUVLO- < 12.0) the optocoupler output will go into the low state with a typical delay, UVLO Turn Off Delay, of 0.6 s.
