描述 Description

The HCPL-7840 isolation amplifer family was designed for current sensing in electronic motor drives. In a typical implementation, motor currents ?ow through an external resistor and the resulting analog voltage drop is sensed by the HCPL-7840. A di?erential output voltage is created on the other side of the HCPL-7840 optical isolation barrier. This di?erential output voltage is proportional to the motor current and can be converted to a single-ended signal by using an op-amp as shown in the recommended application circuit. Since common-mode voltage swings of several hundred volts in tens of nanoseconds are common in modern switching inverter motor drives, the HCPL-7840 was designed to ignore very high common mode transient slew rates (of at least 10 kV/μs).

The high CMR capability of the HCPL-7840 isolation amplifer provides the precision and stability needed to accurately monitor motor current in high noise motor control environ-ments, providing for smoother control (less “torque ripple”) in various types of motor control applications.
