The isolation barrier provides galvanic isolation of up to 7000 VPEAK. The AMC1305 can be used to achieve 16 bits of resolution with a dynamic range of 80 dB (13 ENOB) at a data rate of 78 kSPS when paired with a digital filter (such as the ΔΣ filter module in the TMS320F28377D or the AMC1210). 2 Analog Interface The analog input to the AMC1305 is routed from the two-wire screw terminal at J2. This screw terminal gives the user access to the inverting and noninverting inputs of the AMC1305 device installed at U1. 2.1 Analog Inputs The analog input to the AMC1305EVM printed circuit board (PCB) consists of a simple RC filter circuit. The input circuitry to the AMC1305 is shown in Figure 1. Figure 1. AMC1305EVM Schematic: Analog Input Section Note that the RC filter circuit is not required in every application; the input amplifier of the AMC1305 already provides a limited input bandwidth. See Table 1 for additional details about the analog input bandwidth for each component in the AMC1305 family.

The power, clock input, and modulator data output of the AMC1305 device are routed to the two-wire screw terminals at J1, J3, and J4, as Figure 2 shows. Figure 2. Power, Clock Input, and Digital Data Output Note that component R2 in Figure 2 is marked as DNP (do not populate) because Figure 2 corresponds to an AMC1305EVM populated with a CMOS variant of the AMC1305. Refer to Table 1 for additional details about the analog input ranges and interfaces available in the AMC1305 family. 4 Power Supplies Power for the controller side of the AMC1305 device is supplied through the two-wire screw terminal at J1. The user has two options to provide power for the high side of the AMC1305 device. One option is to supply the high side of the AMC1305 through the two-wire screw terminal at J5; to accomplish that, the user must set jumper JP1 to the position labeled Ext; see Figure 3. SBAU237 – September 2014 Submit Documentation Feedback AMC1305xxEVM User's Guide Copyright © 2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated 3 Power Supplies www.ti.com Figure 3. JP1 in Ext Position The second option is to supply the high side of the AMC1305 with the filtered signal coming from the isolated side of the onboard transformer T1. Note that the filtered signal on the isolated side of T1 is generated from the power supplied to the controller side of the AMC1305 device by using the SN6501 transformer driver located at U3. To take advantage of this isolated, onboard supply, the user must set jumper JP1 to the position labeled Iso, as shown in Figure 4. Figure 4. JP1 in Iso Position 4 AMC1305xxEVM User's Guide SBAU237 – September 2014 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Power Supplies www.ti.com The design of the isolated, unregulated power source to the AMC1305 analog supply input closely follows the TIPD121 Design Reference Guide, 0-5 A, Single-Supply, 2 kV Isolated Current Sensing Solution (SLAU521). The SN6501 transformer driver is used because it is designed for low-power, push-pull converters with input voltages in the range of 3 V to 5.5 V; such voltage ranges fit well within the AMC1305 controller-side supply range. Three important components in the dc-dc converter are the isolation transformer, the rectifier diode, and the linear regulator. 4.1 Transformer Selection To prevent the isolation transformer from saturating, its volt-seconds (V-t) product must be greater than the maximum volt-seconds product applied by the SN6501. The maximum voltage delivered by the SN6501 is the nominal converter input plus a 10% margin. The maximum time this voltage is applied to the primary is half the period of the lowest frequency at the specified input voltage. The minimum switching frequency of the SN6501 at 5-V operation is 300 kHz. Therefore, the transformer minimum V-t product under these conditions, as determined by equations (1) and (2) in the SN6501 data sheet, is 9.1 Vμs. The specified V-t product of the isolation transformer selected (DA2304) is well above this 9.1-Vμs requirement. When searching for a suitable transformer, the minimum turns ratio required must be determined; such a ratio allows the push-pull converter to operate over the specified current and temperature range. The minimum turns ratio required can be expressed through the ratio of secondary to primary voltage multiplied by a correction factor that takes into account the transformer typical efficiency. Equations (3) through (8) in the SN6501 data sheet show the specific requirements for determining the minimum turns ratio for a given application. The DA2304 has a 1:2.2 turns ratio; such a ratio produces an unregulated, open-circuit voltage output well within the input range of the low-dropout regulator used in this design. 4.2 Rectifier Diode Selection The chosen rectifier diode must possess low forward voltage to provide as much voltage to the converter output as possible. When used in high-frequency switching applications, the rectifier must also possess a short recovery time. Schottky diodes meet both of these requirements. The MBR0520L with a typical forward voltage of approximately 200 mV at 8-mA forward current is used in this design. Figure 5 illustrates the forward voltage versus forward current characteristics of the MBR0520L diode.

Forward Voltage of the Rectifier Diode 4.3 Linear Regulator Selection A linear voltage regulator is included to ensure that a stable supply voltage is delivered to the AMC1305 high side (AVDD pin). The TLV70450 fits this application well because of its low quiescent current and regulation capabilities. 6 AMC1305xxEVM User's Guide SBAU237 – September 2014 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated EVM Set-Up and Operation www.ti.com 5 EVM Set-Up and Operation This section describes the general operation of the AMC1305EVM. 5.1 Power and Analog Inputs: J1, J2, and J5 In the EVM default configuration, the isolated onboard supply is used. In other words, power to pin 7 of the AMC1305 is provided from the supply connected to J1 by means of an isolation transformer and the SN6501 transformer driver. This configuration provides an isolated, regulated source to the AMC1305. For power provided from high-side isolated rails (such as from a gate drive supply), move the shunt on jumper JP1 to the Ext position (as shown in Figure 3) so that the two-wire screw terminal at J5 can be used. Use a voltage between 3 V dc and 5.5 V dc for the supply provided to J1 and a voltage between 4.4 V dc and 5.5 V dc for the supply provided to J5. The analog inputs to the AMC1305EVM PCB can be applied directly to the two-wire screw terminal at J2. CAUTION Carefully review the AMC1305 product data sheet for the limitations of the analog input range, and ensure that the appropriate analog and digital supply voltages are applied before connecting any analog input to the EVM. Note that the AMC1305EVM is designed for evaluation of the electrical characteristics of the AMC1305 only. The EVM is not meant for isolation tests and is not designed to be used in a high-voltage environment. The transformer used to derive the isolated, unregulated power source to the LDO input has isolation ratings different from those of the AMC1305. Consult the transformer manufacturer for more information on the isolation capabilities of the transformer. 5.2 Device Operation When the analog and digital power sources are applied to the AMC1305EVM, the digital output activates when an external modulator clock source is applied. The internal reference of the AMC1305 is used as the conversion reference. Additionally, an analog input signal can be applied directly at screw terminal J2. See Figure 1 for more details. Table 1 lists additional details about the analog input ranges and interfaces available in the device family. Table 1.
