High Speed Digital Isolators
Data Sheet
Features
• +3.3V and +5V TTL/CMOS
compatible
• 3 ns max. pulse width distortion
• 6 ns max. propagation delay skew
• 15 ns max. propagation delay
Description
The HCPL-90xx and HCPL-09xx
CMOS digital isolators feature
high speed performance and
excellent transient immunity
specifications. The symmetric
magnetic coupling barrier gives
these devices a typical pulse
width distortion of 2 ns, a typical
propagation delay skew of 4 ns
and 100 Mbaud data rate, making
them the industry’s fastest
digital isolators.
The single channel digital isolators (HCPL-9000/-0900) features
an active-low logic output enable.
The dual channel digital isolators
are configured as unidirectional
(HCPL-9030/-0930) and bidirectional (HCPL-9031/-0931),
operating in full duplex mode
making it ideal for digital
fieldbus applications.
The quad channel digital isolators are configured as unidirec-
tional (HCPL-900J/-090J), two
channels in one direction and
two channels in opposite direction (HCPL-901J/-091J), and one
channel in one direction and
three channels in opposite
direction (HCPL-902J/-092J).
These high channel density make
them ideally suited to isolating
data conversion devices, parallel
buses and peripheral interfaces.
They are available in 8-pin PDIP,
8-pin Gull Wing, 8-pin SOIC
packages, and 16–pin SOIC
narrow-body and wide-body
packages. They are specified over
the temperature range of -40° C
to +100° C.
• High speed: 100 MBd
• 15 kV/µs min. common mode
rejection
• Tri-state output
(HCPL-9000/-0900)
• 2500 V RMS isolation
• UL1577 and IEC 61010-1 approved
Applications
• Digital fieldbus isolation
• Multiplexed data transmission
• Computer peripheral interface
• High speed digital systems
• Isolated data interfaces
• Logic level shifting
CAUTION: It is advised that
normal static precautions be
taken in handling and assembly
of this component to prevent
damage and/or degradation,
which may be induced by ESD.

Applications Information
Power Consumption
The HCPL-90xx and HCPL-09xx
CMOS digital isolators achieves
low power consumption from the
manner by which they transmit
data across isolation barrier. By
detecting the edge transitions of
the input logic signal and converting this to a narrow current
pulse, which drives the isolation
barrier, the isolator then latches
the input logic state in the output
latch. Since the current pulses
are narrow, about 2.5 ns wide, the
power consumption is independent of mark-to-space ratio and
solely dependent on frequency.
The approximate power supply
current per channel is:
I(Input) = 40(f/fmax)(1/4) mA
where f = operating frequency,

to be connected directly to the
inputs and outputs. As shown in
Figure 1, the only external
components required for proper
operation are two 47 nF ceramic
capacitors for decoupling the
power supplies. For each capacitor, the total lead length between
both ends of the capacitor and the
power-supply pins should not
exceed 20 mm. Figure 2 illustrates
the recommended printed circuit
board layout for the HCPL-9000
or HCPL-0900. For data rates in
excess of 10MBd, use of ground
planes for both GND1 and GND2 is
highly recommended.
Bypassing and PC Board Layout
The HCPL-90xx and HCPL-09xx
digital isolators are extremely
easy to use. No external interface
circuitry is required because the
isolators use high-speed CMOS IC
technology allowing CMOS logic

Signal Status on Start-up and
Shut Down
To minimize power dissipation,
the input signals to the channels
of HCPL-90xx and HCPL-09xx
digital isolators are differentiated and then latched on the
output side of the isolation
barrier to reconstruct the signal.
This could result in an ambiguous output state depending on
power up, shutdown and power
loss sequencing. Therefore, the
designer should consider the
inclusion of an initialization
signal in this start-up circuit.

Propagation Delay, Pulse Width
Distortion and Propagation Delay Skew
Propagation Delay is a figure of
merit, which describes how
quickly a logic signal propagates
through a system as illustrated in
Figure 3.
The propagation delay from low to
high, tPLH , is the amount of time
required for an input signal to
propagate to the output, causing
the output to change from low to
high. Similarly, the propagation
delay from high to low, tPHL, is the
amount of time required for the
input signal to propagate to the
output, causing the output to
change from high to low.
Pulse Width Distortion, PWD, is
the difference between tPHL and
tPLH and often determines the
maximum data rate capability of
a transmission system. PWD can
be expressed in percent by
dividing the PWD (in ns) by the
minimum pulse width (in ns)
being transmitted. Typically, PWD
on the order of 20 – 30% of the
minimum pulse width is tolerable.
Propagation Delay Skew, tPSK,
and Channel-to-Channel Skew,
tCSK, are critical parameters to
consider in parallel data transmission applications where
synchronization of signals on
parallel data lines is a concern.

tPSK is defined as the difference
between the minimum and
maximum propagation delays,
either tPLH or tPHL, among two or
more devices which are operating
under the same conditions (i.e.,
the same drive current, supply
voltage, output load, and operating temperature). tCSK is defined
as the difference between the
minimum and maximum propagation delays, either tPLH or tPHL,
among two or more channels
within a single device (applicable
to dual and quad channel devices) which are operating under
the same conditions.
As illustrated in Figure 4, if the
inputs of two or more devices are
switched either ON or OFF at the
same time, tPSK is the difference
between the minimum propagation delay, either tPLH or tPHL, and
the maximum propagation delay,
either tPLH or tPHL.

If the parallel data is being sent
through channels of the digital
isolators, differences in propagation delays will cause the data to
arrive at the outputs of the
digital isolators at different
times. If this difference in
propagation delay is large
enough, it will limit the maximum transmission rate at which
parallel data can be sent through
the digital isolators.
As mentioned earlier, tPSK, can
determine the maximum parallel
data transmission rate. Figure 5
shows the timing diagram of a
typical parallel data transmission
application with both the clock
and data lines being sent through
the digital isolators. The figure
shows data and clock signals at
the inputs and outputs of the
digital isolators. In this case, the
data is clocked off the rising edge
of the clock.
Propagation delay skew represents the uncertainty of where
an edge might be after being sent
through a digital isolator. Figure
5 shows that there will be uncertainty in both the data and clock
lines. It is important that these
two areas of uncertainty not
overlap, otherwise the clock
signal might arrive before all of
the data outputs have settled, or
some of the data outputs may
start to change before the clock
signal has arrived. From these
considerations, the absolute
minimum pulse width that can be
sent through digital isolators in a
parallel application is twice tPSK.
A cautious design should use a
slightly longer pulse width to
ensure that any additional
uncertainty in the rest of the
circuit does not cause a problem.

pulse width, rise and fall time,
and propagation delay enable to

or HCPL-0900.
