Prior to their introduction commercially available isolation amplifiers had been modular or rack mounted devices using transformer coupled modulation demodulation techniques. Compared to these earlier isolation amplifiers, the 3650 and 3652 have the advantage of smaller size, 6 lower cost, wider bandwidth and integrated circuit reliability. Also, because they use a DC analog modulation technique as opposed to a carrier-type technique, they avoid the problems of electromagnetic interference (both transmitted and received) that most of the modular isolation amplifiers exhibit. 1.6MΩ 4 A1 8 RG1 11 RIN 3 1 A1 9 RG2 A3 Light Flux Coupling A4 23 10 1.6MΩ 3652 Only Common to 3650 and 3652 International Airport Industrial Park • Mailing Address: PO Box 11400, Tucson, AZ 85734 • Street Address: 6730 S.

ISOLATION-MODE VOLTAGE, VISO The isolation-mode voltage is the voltage which appears across the isolation barrier, i.e., between the input common and the output common. (See Figure 1.) THEORY OF OPERATION Two isolation voltages are given in the electrical specifications: “rated continuous” and “test voltage”. Since it is impractical on a production basis to test a “continuous” voltage (infinite test time is implied), it is a generally accepted practice to test at a significantly higher voltage for some reasonable length of time. For the 3650 and 3652, the “test voltage” is equal to 1000V plus two times the “rated continuous” voltage. Thus, for a continuous rating of 2000V, each unit is tested at 5000V. Prior to the introduction of the 3650 family optical isolation had not been practical in linear circuits. A single LED and photodiode combination, while useful in a wide range of digital isolation applications, has fundamental limitations— primarily nonlinearity and instability as a function of time and temperature. The 3650 and 3652 use a unique technique to overcome the limitations of the single LED and photodiode isolator. Figure 2 is an elementary equivalent circuit for the 3650, which can be used to understand the basic operation without considering the cluttering details of offset adjustment and biasing for bipolar operation. COMMON-MODE VOLTAGE, VCM The common-mode voltage is the voltage midway between the two inputs of the amplifier measured with respect to input common. It is the algebraic average of the voltage applied at the amplifiers’ input terminals. In the circuit in Figure 1, (V+ + V–)/2 = VCM. (NOTE: Many applications involve a large system “common-mode voltage.” Usually in such cases the term defined here as “VCM” is negligible and the system “common-mode voltage” is applied to the amplifier as “VISO” in Figure 1.) Isolation Barrier CR3 CR1 RK CR2 I1 I2 λ1 RG +V – – ISOLATION-MODE REJECTION VIN I2 A1 IIN The isolation-mode rejection is defined by the equation in Figure 1. The isolation-mode rejection is not infinite because there is some leakage across the isolation barrier due to the isolation resistance and capacitance. +VCC λ2 A2 + I3 + –V VOUT –VCC Output Common Input Common VOUT = VIN RK RG Isolation Barrier RG1 FIGURE 2. Simplified Equivalent Circuit of Linear Isolator. + V+ Two matched photodiodes are used—one in the input (CR3) and one in the output stage (CR2)—to greatly reduce nonlinearities and time-temperature instabilities. Amplifier A1, LED CR1, and photodiode CR3 are used in a negative feedback configuration such that I1 = IIN RG (where RG is the user supplied gain setting resistor). Since CR2 and CR3 are closely matched, and since they receive equal amounts of light from the LED CR1 (i.e., λ1 = λ2), I2 = I1 = IIN. Amplifier A2 is connected as a current-to-voltage converter with VOUT = I2 RK where RK is an internal 1MΩ scaling resistor. Thus the overall transfer function is: RIN VD + RG2 V– VOUT – IL VCM C (Output) C (Input) VISO VOUT = 106 RG1 + RG2 + RIN VD + VCM CMRR – System Ground + VISO VOUT = VIN IMRR This improved isolator circuit overcomes the primary limitations of the single LED and photodiode combination. The transfer function is now virtually independent of any degradation in the LED output as long as the two photodiodes and optics are closely matched(1). Linearity is now a FIGURE 1.

Advanced laser trimming techniques are used to further compensate for residual matching errors. lower bias currents (50pA) and overvoltage protection. The +IR and –IR inputs have a 10ms pulse rating of 6000V differential and 3000V common-mode (see Definitions for a discussion of common-mode and isolation-mode voltages.) The addition of the buffer amplifiers also creates a voltagein voltage-out transfer function with the gain set by RG1 and RG2. A model of the 3650 suitable for simple circuit analysis is shown in Figure 3. The output is a current dependent voltage source, VD, whose value depends on the input current. Thus, the 3650 is a transconductance amplifier with a gain of one volt per microamp. When voltage sources are used, the input current is derived by using gain setting resistors in series with the voltage source (see Installation and Operating Instructions for details). RIN is the differential input impedance. The common-mode and isolation impedances are very high and are assumed to be infinite for this model. +VCC INSTALLATION AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS POWER SUPPLY CONNECTIONS The power supply connections for the 3650 and 3652 are shown in Figure 5. When a DC/DC converter is used for isolated power, it is placed in parallel with the isolation barrier of the amplifier. This can lower the isolation impedance and degrade the isolation-mode rejection of the overall circuit. Therefore, a high quality, low leakage DC/DC converter such as the Burr-Brown Model 722 should be used. –VCC 11 IIN + 26 ROUT RIN 20 OFFSET VOLTAGE ADJUSTMENTS 23 + The offset nulling circuits are identical for the 3650 and 3652 and are shown in Figure 5. The offset adjust circuitry is optional and the units will meet the stated specifications with the BAL terminals unconnected. Provisions are available to null both the input and output stage offsets. If the amplifier is operated at a fixed gain, normally only one adjustment will be used: the output stage (10kΩ adjustment) for low gains and the input stage (50kΩ adjustment) for high gains, (>10). VD – – 10 17 13 C 14 C (Input) (Output) 12 VD = IIN X +V 1V µA –V Use the following procedure if it is desired to null both input and output components. (For example, if the gain of the amplifier is to be switched). The input stage offset is first nulled (50kΩ adjustment) with the appropriate input signal pins connected to input common and the amplifier set at its maximum gain. The gain is then set to its minimum value and the output offset is nulled (10kΩ adjustment). FIGURE 3. Simple Model of 3650. A simplified model of the 3652 is shown in Figure 4. The isolation and output stages are identical to the 3650. Additional input circuitry consisting of FET buffer amplifiers and input protection resistors have been added to give higher differential and common-mode input impedance (1011Ω), Same as 3650 in Figure 3. 6 RG1 +IR 1.6MΩ 4 A1 +I 8 RO 2 11 IIN 23 –I 3 A2 1.6MΩ 9 RO 2 17 10 RG2 1 12 –IR C (Output) C (Input) FIGURE 4.

INPUT CONFIGURATIONS Some possible input configurations for the 3650 and 3652 are shown in Figures 6a, 6b, 6c. Differential input sources are used in these examples. For situations with nondifferential inputs, the appropriate source term should be set to zero in the gain equations and replaced with a short in the diagrams. V1 Figure 6a shows the 3650 connected as a transconductance amplifier with input current sources. Voltage sources are shown in Figure 6b. In this case the voltages are converted to currents by RG1 and RG2. As shown by the equations, they perform as gain setting resistors in the voltage transfer function. When a single voltage source is used, it is recommended (but not essential) that the gain setting resistor remain split into two equal halves in order to minimize errors due to bias currents and common-mode rejection (see Typical Performance Curves). 11 + 23 RIN V2 RG2 C 17 (1) + 10 VOUT – C 12 – VISO Figure 6c illustrates the connections for the 3652 when the FET buffer amplifiers, A1 and A2, are used. This configuration provides an isolation amplifier with high input impedance (both common-mode and differential, and good common-mode and isolation-mode rejection. It is a true isolated instrumentation amplifier which has many benefits for noise rejection when source impedance imbalances are present. VOUT = (V1 – V2) + VISO 106Ω IMRR RG1 + RG2 + RIN + RO NOTE: (1) The offset adjustment circutry and power supply connections have been omitted for simplicity. Refer to Figure 5 for details. FIGURE 6b. 3650 with Differential Voltage Sources. In the 3652, the voltage gain of the buffer amplifiers is slightly less than unity, but the gain of the output stage has been raised to compensate for this so that the overall transfer function from the ±I or ±IR inputs to the output is correct. It should be noted that A1 and A2 are buffer amplifiers. No summing can be done at the ±I or ±IR inputs. Figure 6c shows the +I and –I inputs used. If more input voltage protection is desired, then the +IR and –IR inputs should be used. This will increase the input noise due to the contribution from the 1.6MΩ resistors, but will provide additional differential and common-mode protection (10ms rating of 3kV). ERROR ANALYSIS A model of the 3650 suitable for DC error analysis of offset voltage, voltage drift versus temperature, bias current, etc., is shown in Figure 7. A1 and A2, the input and output stage amplifiers, are considered to be ideal. Separate external generators are used to model the offset voltages and bias currents. RIN is assumed to be small relative to RG1 and RG2 and is therefore omitted from the gain equation. The feedback configuration, optics and component matching are such that I1 = I2 = I3 = I4.

The output errors due to the output stage bias current are also included in EOSO. This results in a very simple equation for the total error: VOUT-TOTAL = 106 EOSI 2RG1 + EOSO (for RG1 = RG2). EN (RMS) = √(ENIG)2 + (ENO)2 where EN (RMS) = Total output noise ENI = RMS noise of the input stage ENO = RMS noise of the output stage G = 106/(RG1 + RG2) (2) ENO includes the noise contribution due to the optics and the noise currents of the output stage. Errors created by the noise current of the input stage are insignificant compared to other noise sources and are therefore omitted. In summary, it should be noted that equation (2) should be used only when RG1 = RG2. When RG1 ≠ RG2, equation (1) applies. ® 9 3650/52 COMMON-MODE AND ISOLATION-MODE REJECTION APPLICATIONS The expression for the output error due to common-mode and isolation mode voltage is: Figure 8 shows a system where isolation amplifiers (3650) are used to measure the armature current and the armature voltage of a motor. VCM VOUT = G CMRR + VISO The armature current of the motor is converted to a voltage by the calibrated shunt RS and then amplifier (adjustable gain) and isolated by the 3650. IMRR The armature voltage is sensed by the voltage divider (adjustable) shown and then amplified and isolated by the 3650. GUARDING AND PROTECTION To preserve the excellent inherent isolation characteristics of these amplifiers, the following recommended practice should be noted. The 3650 provides the advantage of accurate current measurement in the presence of high common-mode voltage. Both 3650s provide the advantage of isolating the motor ground from the control system ground. Isolated power is provided by an isolated DC/DC converter (BB Model 722 or equivalent). 1. Use shielded twisted pair of cable at the input as with any instrumentation amplifier. 2. Care should be taken to minimize external capacitance. A symmetrical layout of external components to achieve balanced capacitance from the input terminals to output common will preserve high IMR. 3. External components and conductor patterns should be at a distance equal to or greater than the distance between the input and output terminals to prevent HV breakdown. 4. Though not an absolute requirement, the use of laminated or conformally coated printed circuit boards is recommended. 1MΩ The 3652 is ideally suited for patient monitoring applications as shown in Figure 9. The fact that it is a true balanced input instrumentation amplifier with very high differential and common-mode impedance means that it can greatly reduce the common-mode noise pick up due to imbalance in lead impedances that often appear in patient monitoring situations. The 3kV and 6kV shown in Figure 9 are the 10ms pulse ratings of the +IR and –IR inputs for the common-mode and differential input voltages with respect to input common.

The nonrecurrent pulse rating of the isolation barrier is 5000Vpk, since each unit is factory tested at 5000Vpk. If the isolation barrier is to be subjected to higher voltages a gas filled surge voltage protection device can be used. For multichannel operation, two 3652s can be powered by one Model 722 isolated DC/DC converter. The total leakage current for both channels at 240V 60Hz would still be less than 2µA. The block diagram in Figure 10 shows the use of isolation amplifiers in SCR control application.
