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 con-ditions, transistor Q1 has
just turned off when transistor Q2 turns on, as shown in
Figure 35. The amount of delay necessary to achieve this
conditions is equal to the maximum value of the propa-
gation delay difference specification, PDD
specified to be 350 ns over the operating temperature
range of -40°C to 100°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 36. The maximum dead time for the HCPL-3120 is
700 ns (= 350 ns - (-350 ns)) over an operating tempera-
ture range of -40°C to 100°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 IGBTs.
