9 Application and Implementation

NOTE

Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality.

9.1 Application Information

ISO7420FCC utilize single-ended TTL-logic switching technology. Its supply voltage range is from 2.7 V to 5.5 V for both supplies, VCC1 and VCC2. When designing with digital isolators, it is important to keep in mind that due to the single-ended design structure, digital isolators do not conform to any specific interface standard and are only intended for isolating single-ended CMOS or TTL digital signal lines. The isolator is typically placed between the data controller (i.e. μC or UART), and a data converter or a line transceiver, regardless of the interface type or standard.

9.2 Typical Application

ISO7420FCC can be used to isolate power MOSFETs from sensitive logic circuitry in Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) as shown in Figure 18. Low default output of ISO7420FCC is critical for proper operation of power MOSFETs in such applications.

9.2.1 Design Requirements

Unlike optocouplers, which require external components to improve performance, provide bias, or limit current, the ISO7420FCC only requires two external bypass capacitors to operate.

9.2.2 Detailed Design Procedure

9.2.2.1 Supply Current Equations

9.2.2.1.1 Maximum Supply Current Equations

(Calculated over recommended operating temperature range and Silicon process variation).

At VCC1 = VCC2 = 5 V ±10%:

Equation 1. ICC1(max) = 1.1 + 5.80E-02 × f
Equation 2. ICC2(max) = 4.6 + 6.55E-02 × f + 5.5E-03 × f × CL

At VCC1 = VCC2 = 3.3 V ± 10%:

Equation 3. ICC1(max) = 0.8 + 3.40E-02 × f
Equation 4. ICC2(max) = 3.3 + 4.60E-02 × f + 3.6E-03 × f × CL

At VCC1 = VCC2 = 2.7 V:

Equation 5. ICC1(max) = 0.4 + 3.20E-02 × f
Equation 6. ICC2(max) = 3.1 + 3.75E-02 × f + 2.7E-03 × f × CL

f is data rate of each channel measured in Mbps; CL is the capacitive load of each channel measured in pF; ICC1(maximum) and ICC2(max) are measured in mA.

9.2.2.1.2 Typical Supply Current Equations

(Calculated for TA = 25°C and nominal Silicon process material).

At VCC1 = VCC2 = 5 V:

Equation 7. ICC1(typical) = 0.5 + 4.40E-02 × f
Equation 8. ICC2(typical) = 3 + 3.50E-02 × f + 5.0E-03 × f × CL

At VCC1 = VCC2 = 3.3 V:

Equation 9. ICC1(typical) = 0.3 + 2.60E-02 × f
Equation 10. ICC2(typical) = 2.4 + 2.25E-02 × f + 3.3E-03 × f × CL

At VCC1 = VCC2 = 2.7 V:

Equation 11. ICC1(typical) = 0.15 + 2.10E-02 × f
Equation 12. ICC2(typical) = 2.1 + 1.75E-02 × f + 2.7E-03 × f × CL

f is Data Rate of each channel measured in Mbps; CL is the Capacitive Load of each channel measured in pF; ICC1(typ) and ICC2(typ) are measured in mA.
