All Avago data sheets report the creepage and clearance inherent to the optocoupler component itself. 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 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 (the recommended Land Pattern does not necessarily meet the minimum creepage of the device). There are recommended techniques such as grooves and 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. Table 3. Absolute Maximum Ratings Parameter Symbol Min. Max.

The ACPL-P346/W346 is an optically isolated power output stage capable of driving power or SiC. Based on BCDMOS technology, this gate drive optocoupler delivers higher peak output current, better rail-to-rail output voltage performance and two times faster speed than the previous generation products. The high peak output current and short propagation delay are needed for fast MOSFET switching to reduce dead time and improve system overall efficiency. Rail-to-rail output voltage ensures that the MOSFET’s gate voltage is driven to the optimum intended level with no power loss across the MOSFET. This helps the designer lower the system power which is suitable for bootstrap power supply operation. It has very high CMR(common mode rejection) rating which allows the microcontroller and the MOSFET to operate at very large common mode noise found in industrial motor drives and other power switching applications. The input is driven by direct LED current and has a hysteresis that prevents output oscillation if insufficient LED driving current is applied. This will eliminates the need of additional Schmitt trigger circuit at the input LED. The supply bypass capacitors (1 µF) provide the large transient currents necessary during a switching transition. Because of the transient nature of the charging currents, a low current (4.0 mA) power supply will be enough to power the device. The split resistors (in the ratio of 1.5:1) across the LED will provide a high CMR response by providing a balanced resistance network across the LED. The gate resistor RG serves to limit gate charge current and controls the MOSFET switching times. In PC board design, care should be taken to avoid routing the MOSFET drain or source traces close to the ACPL-P346 input as this can result in unwanted coupling of transient signals into ACPL-P346 and degrade performance. The stretched SO6 package which is up to 50% smaller than conventional DIP package facilitates smaller and more compact design. These stretched packages are compliant to many industrial safety standards such as IEC/EN/ DIN EN 60747-5-5, UL 1577 and CSA. 232Ω + _ ANODE 1 NC 2 154Ω CATHODE 3 VCC 6 VOUT 5 VEE 4 1µF Rg VCC =10V + _ + HVDC Q1 Q2 Figure 22.

The MOSFET and Rg in Figure 22 can be analyzed as a simple RC circuit with a voltage supplied by ACPL-P346/ W346. Rg ≥ VCC −VEE − R DSON ( MIN ) I OLPEAK 10 − 0V − 0.3Ω 2.5 A = 3.7Ω The external gate resistor, Rg and internal minimum turnon resistance, RDSON will ensure the output current will not exceed the device absolute maximum rating of 2.5 A. = Step 1: Check the ACPL-P346/W346 power dissipation and increase Rg if necessary. The ACPL-P346/W346 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) + PHS + PLS PHS = (VCC*QG*f ) * RDS,OH(MAX) / (RDS,OH(MAX)+Rg) / 2 PLS = (VCC*QG*f ) * RDS,OL(MAX) / (RDS,OL(MAX)+Rg) / 2 Using IF(worst case) = 11 mA, Rg = 3.7 Ω, Max Duty Cycle = 80%, QG = 100 nC (650V 20A MOSFET), f = 200 kHz and TA max = 85 °C: PE = 11mA • 1.95V • 0.8 = 17mW PHS = (10V • 100nC • 200 kHz) • 3.5Ω/(3.5Ω+3.7Ω)/2 = 48.6mW PLS = (10V • 100nC • 200 kHz) • 2.0Ω/(2.0Ω+3.7Ω)/2 = 35.1mW PO = 4mA • 10V + 48.6mW + 35.1mW = 123.7mW < 500 mW (PO(MAX) @ 85 °C) The value of 4 mA for ICC in the previous equation is the maximum ICC over the entire operating temperature range. Since PO is less than PO(MAX), Rg = 3.7 Ω is alright for the power dissipation. 14 VDD = 5.0 V: R 1 = 232 Ω ± 1% R 2 = 154 Ω ± 1% R 1 /R2 ≈ 1.5 +5 V R 1 ANODE 1 ILP C LA 2 µC R2 3 CATHODE 6 VCC 5 VOUT ILN C LC 4 VEE Figure 23. Recommended high-CMR drive circuit for the ACPL-P346/W346. LED Drive Circuit Considerations for High CMR Performance Figure 23 shows the recommended drive circuit for the ACPL-P346/W346 that gives optimum common-mode rejection. The two current setting resistors balance the common mode impedances at the LED’s anode and cathode. Common-mode transients can be capacitive coupled from the LED anode, through CLA (or cathode through CLC) to the output-side ground causing current to be shunted away from the LED (which is not wanted when the LED should be on) or conversely cause current to be injected into the LED (which is not wanted when the LED should be off ). Table 8 shows the directions of ILP and ILN depend on the polarity of the common-mode transient. For transients occurring when the LED is on, common-mode rejection (CMH, since the output is at "high" state) depends on LED current (IF). For conditions where IF is close to the switching threshold (IFLH), CMH also depends on the extent to which ILP and ILN balance each other. In other words, any condition where a common-mode transient causes a momentary decrease in IF (i.e. when dVCM/dt > 0 and |ILP| > |ILN|, referring to Table 8) will cause a common-mode failure for transients which are fast enough. Likewise for a common-mode transient that occurs when the LED is off (i.e. CML, since the output is at "low" state), if an imbalance between ILP and ILN results in a transient IF equal to or greater than the switching threshold of the optocoupler, the transient “signal” may cause the output to spike above 1 V, which constitutes a CML failure. The balanced ILED-setting resistors help equalize the common mode voltage change at the anode and cathode. The shunt drive input circuit will also help to achieve high CML performance by shunting the LED in the off state. Table 8. Common Mode Pulse Polarity and LED current Transients dVCM/dt ILP Direction ILP Direction If |ILP| < |ILN|, IF is momentarily If |ILP| > |ILN|, IF is momentarily Positive (>0) Away from LED anode through CLA Away from LED cathode through CLC Increase Decrease Toward LED cathode through CLC Decrease Increase Negative(<0) Toward LED anode through CLA Dead Time and Propagation Delay Specifications The ACPL-P346/W346 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 22) 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 rails. To minimize dead time in a given design, the turn on of LED2 should be delayed (relative to the turn off of LED1) so that under worst-case conditions, transistor Q1 has just turned off when transistor Q2 turns on, as shown in Figure 24. The amount of delay necessary to achieve this condition is equal to the maximum value of the propagation delay difference specification, PDDMAX, which is specified to be 100 ns over the operating temperature range of 40 °C to 105 °C. 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 25. The maximum dead time for the ACPL-P346/ W346 is 100 ns (= 50 ns - (-50 ns)) over an operating temperature range of -40 °C to 105 °C. Note that the propagation delays used to calculate PDD and dead time are taken at equal temperatures and test conditions since the optocouplers under consideration are typically mounted in close proximity to each other and are switching identical MOSFETs. LED Current Input with Hysteresis The detector has optical receiver input stage with built in Schmitt trigger to provide logic compatible waveforms, eliminating the need for additional wave shaping. The hysteresis (Figure 12) provides differential mode noise immunity and minimizes the potential for output signal chatter. 15 ILED1 VOUT1 VOUT2 ILED2 Q1 ON Q1 OFF Q2 ON Q2 OFF tPHL MAX tPLH MIN PDD* MAX = (tPHL - tPLH) MAX = tPHL MAX - tPLH MIN *PDD = Propagation Delay Difference Note: for PDD calculations the propagation delays Are taken at the same temperature and test conditions.
