8 Detailed Description

8.1 Overview

ISO7821 employs an ON-OFF Keying (OOK) modulation scheme to transmit the digital data across a silicon dioxide based isolation barrier. The transmitter sends a high frequency carrier across the barrier to represent one digital state and sends no signal to represent the other digital state. The receiver demodulates the signal after advanced signal conditioning and produces the output through a buffer stage. These devices also incorporates advanced circuit techniques to maximize the CMTI performance and minimize the radiated emissions due the high frequency carrier and IO buffer switching. The conceptual block diagram of a digital capacitive isolator, Figure 11, shows a functional block diagram of a typical channel.

Also a conceptual detail of how the ON/OFF Keying scheme works is shown in Figure 12.

NOTE

Creepage and clearance requirements should be applied according to the specific equipment isolation standards of an application. Care should be taken to maintain the creepage and clearance distance of a board design to ensure that the mounting pads of the isolator on the printed-circuit board do not reduce this distance.

Creepage and clearance on a printed-circuit board become equal in certain cases. Techniques such as inserting grooves and/or ribs on a printed circuit board are used to help increase these specifications.

8.3.1.2 Safety Limiting Values

Safety limiting intends to prevent potential damage to the isolation barrier upon failure of input or output circuitry. A failure of the I/O can allow low resistance to ground or the supply and, without current limiting, dissipate sufficient power to overheat the die and damage the isolation barrier potentially leading to secondary system failures.

Table 5. Safety Limiting

PARAMETER TEST CONDITIONS MIN TYP MAX UNIT
IS Safety input, output, or supply current for DW-16 package and DWW-16 Packages RθJA = 84.7°C/W, VI = 5.5 V, TJ = 150°C, TA = 25°C 268 mA
RθJA = 84.7°C/W, VI = 3.6 V, TJ = 150°C, TA = 25°C 410
RθJA = 84.7°C/W, VI = 2.75 V, TJ = 150°C, TA = 25°C 537
PS Safety input, output, or total power RθJA = 84.7°C/W, TJ = 150°C, TA = 25°C 1476 mW
TS Maximum safety temperature 150 °C

The maximum safety temperature is the maximum junction temperature specified for the device. The power dissipation and junction-to-air thermal impedance of the device installed in the application hardware determines the junction temperature. The assumed junction-to-air thermal resistance in the Thermal Information is that of a device installed on a High-K test board for Leaded Surface Mount Packages. The power is the recommended maximum input voltage times the current. The junction temperature is then the ambient temperature plus the power times the junction-to-air thermal resistance.

8.4 Device Functional Modes

ISO7821 functional modes are shown in Table 6.

VCCI VCCO INPUT
(INx)(3)		 OUTPUT ENABLE
(ENx)
(DWW Package Only) 		OUTPUT
(OUTx)		 COMMENTS
PU PU H H or open H Normal Operation:
A channel output assumes the logic state of its input.
L H or open L
Open H or open Default Default mode: When INx is open, the corresponding channel output goes to its default high logic state. Default= High for ISO7821 and Low for ISO7821F.
X PU X L Z A low value of Output Enable causes the outputs to be high- impedance.
PD PU X H or open Default Default mode: When VCCI is unpowered, a channel output assumes the logic state based on the selected default option.Default= High for ISO7821 and Low for ISO7821F.
When VCCI transitions from unpowered to powered-up, a channel output assumes the logic state of its input.
When VCCI transitions from powered-up to unpowered, channel output assumes the selected default state.
X PD X X Undetermined When VCCO is unpowered, a channel output is undetermined (2).
When VCCO transitions from unpowered to powered-up, a channel output assumes the logic state of its input
(1) VCCI = Input-side VCC; VCCO = Output-side VCC; PU = Powered up (VCC ≥ 2.25 V); PD = Powered down (VCC ≤ 1.7 V); X = Irrelevant; H = High level; L = Low level; Z = High impedance
(2) The outputs are in undetermined state when 1.7 V < VCCI, VCCO < 2.25 V.
(3) A strongly driven input signal can weakly power the floating VCC via an internal protection diode and cause undetermined output.
