Description
The HCPL-3700 and HCPL-3760
are voltage/current threshold
detection optocouplers. The
HCPL-3760 is a low-current
version of the HCPL-3700. To
obtain lower current operation,
the HCPL-3760 uses a high-
efficiency AlGaAs LED which
provides higher light output at
lower drive currents. Both
devices utilize threshold sensing
input buffer ICs which permit
control of threshold levels over a
wide range of input voltages with
a single external resistor.
The input buffer incorporates
several features: hysteresis for
extra noise immunity and
switching immunity, a diode
bridge for easy use with ac input
signals, and internal clamping

diodes to protect the buffer and
LED from a wide range of over-
voltage and over-current
transients. Because threshold
sensing is done prior to driving
the LED, variations in optical
coupling from the LED to the
detector will have no effect on the
threshold levels.
The HCPL-3700's input buffer IC
has a nominal turn on threshold
of 2.5 mA (I
TH
+) and 3.7 volts
(V
TH
+).
The buffer IC for the HCPL-3760
was redesigned to permit a lower
input current. The nominal turn
on threshold for the HCPL-3760
is 1.2 mA (I
TH
+) and 3.7 volts
(V
TH
+).
The high gain output stage
features an open collector output
providing both TTL compatible
saturation voltages and CMOS
compatible breakdown voltages.
By combining several unique
functions in a single package, the
user is provided with an ideal
component for industrial control
computer input boards and other
applications where a predeter-
mined input threshold level is
desirable.
