Application Information Bypassing and PC Board Layout The ACPL-077L optocoupler is extremely easy to use. No external interface circuitry is required because ACPL-077L uses high speed CMOS IC technology allowing CMOS logic to be connected directly to the inputs and outputs. As shown in Figure, the only external components required for proper operation are two bypass capacitors. Capacitor values should be between 0.0 μf and 0. μf. For each capacitor, the total lead length between both ends of the capacitor and the power supply pins should not exceed 0 mm. V DD V I C 077L * 3 6 V O 8 7 NC C V DD Propagation Delay, Pulse-Width Distortion and Propagation Delay Skew The propagation delay is a figure of merit which describes how quickly a logic signal propagates through a system. The propagation delay from a low to high (t PLH ) 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 (t PHL ) is the amount of time required for the input signal to propagate to the output, causing the output to change from high to low (Figure ). Pulse-width distortion (PWD) is the difference between t PHL and t PLH 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 0-30% of the minimum pulse width is tolerable.

Propagation delay skew, t PSK, is an important parameter to consider in parallel data applications where synchronization of signals on parallel data lines is a concern. If the parallel data is sent through a group of optocouplers, differences in propagation delays will cause the data to arrive at the outputs of the optocouplers at different times. If this difference in propagation delay is large enough it will determine the maximum rate at which parallel data can be sent through the optocouplers. Propagation delay skew is defined as the difference between the minimum and maximum propagation delays, either t PLH or t PHL for any given group of optocouplers which are operating under the same conditions (i.e., the same drive current, supply voltage, output load, and operating temperature). As illustrated in Figure 3, if the inputs of a group of optocouplers are switched either ON or OFF at the same time, tpsk is the difference between the shortest propagation delay, either t PLH or t PHL and the longest propagation delay, either t PLH and t PHL. As mentioned earlier, t PSK can determine the maximum parallel data transmission rate. Figure is the timing diagram of a typical parallel data application with both the clock and data lines being sent through the optocouplers. The figure shows data and clock signals at the inputs and outputs of the optocouplers. In this case the data is assumes to be clocked off of the rising edge of the clock. Propagation delay skew represents the uncertainty of where an edge might be after being sent through an optocoupler. Figure 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 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 optocouplers in a parallel application is twice t PSK. 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.
