{ V REF ( DEV ) /V REF ( T A = 25°C ) } × 10
∆V REF ( ppm/°C ) = ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------∆T A
where ∆TA is the rated operating free-air temperature range of the device.
2. The dynamic impedance is defined as |ZOUT| = ∆VCOMP/∆ILED. When the device is operating with two external

of the common mode impulse signal, Vcm, to assure that the output will remain high. Common mode transient
immunity at output low is the maximum tolerable (negative) dVcm/dt on the trailing edge of the common pulse

FOD2712A — Optically Isolated Error Amplifier
Typical Performance Curves (Continued)
Compensation
The FOD2712A is an optically isolated error amplifier. It
incorporates three of the most common elements necessary to make an isolated power supply, a reference voltage, an error amplifier, and an optocoupler. It is
functionally equivalent to the popular AZ431L shunt voltage regulator plus the CNY17F-3 optocoupler.
The compensation pin of the FOD2712A provides the
opportunity for the designer to design the frequency
response of the converter. A compensation network may
be placed between the COMP pin and the FB pin. In typical low-bandwidth systems, a 0.1µF capacitor may be
used. For converters with more stringent requirements, a
network should be designed based on measurements of
the system’s loop. An excellent reference for this process may be found in “Practical Design of Power
Supplies” by Ron Lenk, IEEE Press, 1998.
Powering the Secondary Side
The LED pin in the FOD2712A powers the secondary
side, and in particular provides the current to run the
LED. The actual structure of the FOD2712A dictates the
minimum voltage that can be applied to the LED pin: The
error amplifier output has a minimum of the reference
voltage, and the LED is in series with that. Minimum voltage applied to the LED pin is thus 1.24V + 1.5V = 2.74V.
This voltage can be generated either directly from the
output of the converter, or else from a slaved secondary
winding. The secondary winding will not affect regulation, as the input to the FB pin may still be taken from the
output winding.
Secondary Ground
The GND pin should be connected to the secondary
ground of the converter.
No Connect Pins
The NC pins have no internal connection. They should
not have any connection to the secondary side, as this
may compromise the isolation structure.
The LED pin needs to be fed through a current limiting
resistor. The value of the resistor sets the amount of
current through the LED, and thus must be carefully
selected in conjunction with the selection of the primary
side resistor.
Photo-Transistor
Feedback
The value of the pull-up resistor, and the current limiting
resistor feeding the LED, must be carefully selected to
account for voltage range accepted by the PWM IC, and
for the variation in current transfer ratio (CTR) of the
opto-isolator itself.
The Photo-transistor is the output of the FOD2712A. In a
normal configuration the collector will be attached to a
pull-up resistor and the emitter grounded. There is no
base connection necessary.
Output voltage of a converter is determined by selecting
a resistor divider from the regulated output to the FB pin.
The FOD2712A attempts to regulate its FB pin to the reference voltage, 1.24V. The ratio of the two resistors
should thus be:
Example: The voltage feeding the LED pins is +12V, the
voltage feeding the collector pull-up is +10V, and the
PWM IC is the Fairchild KA1H0680, which has a 5V reference. If we select a 10KΩ resistor for the LED, the
maximum current the LED can see is:
R TOP
V OUT
------------------------- = -------------–1
R BOTTOM
V REF
The absolute value of the top resistor is set by the input
offset current of 0.8µA. To achieve 1% accuracy, the
resistance of RTOP should be:
(12V–2.74V) /10KΩ = 926µA.
The CTR of the opto-isolator is a minimum of 100%, and
so the minimum collector current of the photo-transistor
when the diode is full on is also 926µA. The collector
resistor must thus be such that:
V OUT – 1.24
------------------------------- > 80µA
R TOP
10V – 5V
----------------------------------- < 926µA or R COLLECTOR > 5.4KΩ;
R COLLECTOR
select 10KΩ to allow some margin.

ANTI-COUNTERFEITING POLICY
Fairchild Semiconductor Corporation's Anti-Counterfeiting Policy. Fairchild's Anti-Counterfeiting Policy is also stated on our external website, www.fairchildsemi.com,
under Sales Support.
Counterfeiting of semiconductor parts is a growing problem in the industry. All manufacturers of semiconductor products are experiencing counterfeiting of their parts.
Customers who inadvertently purchase counterfeit parts experience many problems such as loss of brand reputation, substandard performance, failed applications,
and increased cost of production and manufacturing delays. Fairchild is taking strong measures to protect ourselves and our customers from the proliferation of
counterfeit parts. Fairchild strongly encourages customers to purchase Fairchild parts either directly from Fairchild or from Authorized Fairchild Distributors who are
listed by country on our web page cited above. Products customers buy either from Fairchild directly or from Authorized Fairchild Distributors are genuine parts, have
full traceability, meet Fairchild's quality standards for handling and storage and provide access to Fairchild's full range of up-to-date technical and product information.
Fairchild and our Authorized Distributors will stand behind all warranties and will appropriately address any warranty issues that may arise. Fairchild will not provide
any warranty coverage or other assistance for parts bought from Unauthorized Sources. Fairchild is committed to combat this global problem and encourage our
customers to do their part in stopping this practice by buying direct or from authorized distributors.
