Description
The HCPL-3700/60 Threshold-
Sensing Optocoupler can be used
for sensing the ac/dc power on/off
condition. At the optocoupler input,
only a pair of series resistors R
X
/2 are
required to limit the current. The ac
signal can be filtered with a capaci-
tor at either the input or the output
of the optocoupler. For more infor-
mation refer to Avago Applica tion
Note AN 1004, “Threshold Sensing
for Industrial Control Systems.” The
value of R
X
determines the threshold
sensing voltage.
Performance of Circuit
• HCPL3760 optocoupler threshold
input current: 1.3 mA (typical)
• Typical optocoupler propaga tion
delay: 10 µs
• Optocoupler common mode tran-
sient immunity: 600 V/µs (typical)
• Maximum input voltage: up to
1000 Vdc, or 800 Vac
Benefits
• HCPL 3700/60’s builtin diode
bridge and hysteresis circuit re-
duces component count
• HCPL3760’s low threshold sens-
ing current reduces power dissi-
pation
• Threshold voltage can be adjust-
ed by external resistor R
X
