HCPL-260L/060L/263L/063L
High-Speed LVTTL-Compatible 3.3V
Optocouplers
Description
The Broadcom® HCPL-260L/060L/263L/063L are optically
coupled gates that combine a GaAsP light-emitting diode
and an integrated high gain photo detector. An enable input
allows the detector to be strobed. The output of the detector
IC is an open collector Schottky-clamped transistor. The
internal shield provides a guaranteed common mode
transient immunity specification of 15 kV/µs at 3.3V.
Features
3.3V/5V dual-supply voltages
Low power consumption
15 kV/µs minimum Common Mode Rejection (CMR) at
VCM = 1000V
High speed: 15 MBd typical
LVTTL/LVCMOS compatible
Low input current capability: 5 mA
Guaranteed AC and DC performance over temperature:
–40°C to +85°C
Available in 8-pin DIP, SOIC-8
Strobable output (single-channel products only)
Safety approvals: UL, CSA, IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-5
This unique design provides maximum AC and DC circuit
isolation while achieving LVTTL/LVCMOS compatibility. The
optocoupler AC and DC operational parameters are
guaranteed from –40°C to +85°C allowing trouble-free
system performance.
These optocouplers are suitable for high-speed logic
interfacing, input/output buffering, as line receivers in
environments that conventional line receivers cannot
tolerate and are recommended for use in extremely high
ground or induced noise environments.
Applications
Isolated line receiver
Computer-peripheral interfaces
Microprocessor system interfaces
Digital isolation for A/D, D/A conversion
Switching power supply
Instrument input/output isolation
Ground loop elimination
Pulse transformer replacement
Field buses
CAUTION! Take normal static precautions in handling and assembly of this component to prevent damage, degradation,
or both that may be induced by ESD.
The components featured in this data sheet are not to be used in military or aerospace applications or
environments.

Application Information
Common-Mode Rejection for
HCPL-260L Families
Figure 13 shows the recommended drive circuit for optimal
common-mode rejection performance. Note the following
two points:
The enable pin is tied to VCC rather than floating (this
applies to single-channel parts only).
Two LED-current setting resistors are used instead of
one. This is to balance ILED variation during commonmode transients.
If the enable pin is left floating, it is possible for commonmode transients to couple to the enable pin, resulting in
common-mode failure. This failure mechanism only occurs
when the LED is on and the output is in the Low state. It is
identified as occurring when the transient output voltage
rises above 0.8V. Therefore, the enable pin should be
connected to either VCC or logic-level high for best commonmode performance with the output low (CMRL). This failure
mechanism is only present in single-channel parts that have
the enable function.
Also, common-mode transients can capacitively couple
from the LED anode (or cathode) to the output-side ground
causing current to be shunted away from the LED (which
can be bad if the LED is on) or conversely cause current to
be injected into the LED (bad if the LED is meant to be off).
Figure 14 shows the parasitic capacitances that exist
between LED anode/cathode and output ground (CLA and
CLC). Also shown in Figure 14 on the input side is an
AC-equivalent circuit.
For transients occurring when the LED is on, common-mode
rejection (CMRL, since the output is in the “low” state)
depends upon the amount of LED current drive (IF). For
conditions where IF is close to the switching threshold (ITH),
CMRL also depends on the extent which ILP and ILN balance
each other. In other words, any condition where commonmode transients cause a momentary decrease in IF will
cause common-mode failure for transients that are fast
enough.

By using the circuit in Figure 13, good CMR can be
achieved. The balanced ILED-setting resistors help equalize
ILP and ILN to reduce the amount by which ILED is modulated
from transient coupling through CLA and CLC.
Use of drive circuits where current is shunted from the
LED in the LED “off” state (as shown in Figure 15 and
Figure 16). This beneneficial for good CMRH.
Use of IFH > 3.5 mA. This is good for high CMRL.
Figure 15 shows a circuit that can be used with any totempole-output TTL/LSTTL/HCMOS logic gate. The buffer PNP
transistor allows the circuit to be used with logic devices that
have low current-sinking capability. It also helps maintain
the driving-gate power-supply current at a constant level to
minimize ground shifting for other devices connected to the
input-supply ground.

When using an open-collector TTL or open-drain CMOS
logic gate, the circuit in Figure 16 may be used. When using
a CMOS gate to drive the optocoupler, the circuit shown in
Figure 17 may be used. The diode in parallel with the RLED
speeds the turn-off of the optocoupler LED.

CMR with Other Drive Circuits
CMR performance with drive circuits other than that shown
in Figure 13 may be enhanced by following these
guidelines:

–
Likewise for common-mode transients that occur when the
LED is off (that is, CMRH, since the output is “high”), if an
imbalance between ILP and ILN results in a transient IF equal
to or greater than the switching threshold of the optocoupler,
the transient “signal” may cause the output to spike below
2V (which constitutes a CMRH failure).
