CMR with the LED On (CMR
A high CMR LED drive circuit must keep the LED on during
common mode transients. This is achieved by overdriving
the LED current beyond the input threshold so that it is not
pulled below the threshold during a transient. A minimum
LED current of 7 mA provides adequate margin over the
maximum I

Dead Time and Propagation Delay Specifications
The HCPL-3020 and HCPL-0302 include a Propagation
Delay Difference (PDD) specification intended to help
designers minimize “dead time” in their power inverter
designs. Dead time is the time high and low side power
transistors are off. Any overlap in Ql and Q2 conduction
will result in large currents flowing through the power
devices from the high voltage to the 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 propa-
gation delay difference specification, PDD max, which is
specified to be 500 ns over the operating temperature
range of –40° 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 specification as shown in
Figure 25. The maximum dead time for the HCPL-3020 and
HCPL-0302 is 1 ms (= 0.5 µs – (–0.5 µs)) over the operating
temperature 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.
