HCPL-788J

Isolation Amplifier with Short Circuit and Overload Detection

Description

The HCPL-788J isolation amplifier is designed for current sensing in electronic motor drives. In a typical implementation, motor currents flow through an external resistor and the resulting analog voltage drop is sensed by the HCPL-788J. A larger analog output voltage is created on the other side of the HCPL-788J's optical isolation barrier. The output voltage is proportional to the motor current and can be connected directly to a single-supply A/D converter. A digital over-range output (FAULT) and an analog rectified output (ABSVAL) are also provided. The wire OR-able over-range output (FAULT) is useful for quick detection of short circuit conditions on any of the motor phases. The wire-OR-able rectified output (ABSVAL), simplifies measurement of motor load since it performs polyphase rectification. Since the common-mode voltage swings several hundred volts in tens of nanoseconds in modern electronic motor drives, the HCPL-788J was designed to ignore very high common-mode transient slew rates (10 kV/ms).

HCPL-788J is on EBV's motor control reference design.
