turn off of LED1) so that under
worst-case conditions, transistor
Q1 has just turned off when
transistor Q2 turns on, as shown
in Figure 34. The amount of delay
necessary to achieve this condi-
tions is equal to the maximum
value of the propagation delay
difference specification, PDDMAX,
which is specified to be 350 ns
over the operating temperature
range of -40°C to 100°C.
Delaying the LED signal by the
maximum propagation delay
difference ensures that the
minimum dead time is zero, but it
does not tell a designer what the
maximum dead time will be. The
maximum dead time is equivalent
to the difference between the
maximum and minimum propaga-
tion delay difference specifica-
tions as shown in Figure 35. The
maximum dead time for the
HCPL-3150 is 700 ns (= 350 ns -
(-350 ns)) over an operating
temperature range of -40°C to
100°C.
Note that the propagation delays
used to calculate PDD and dead
time are taken at equal tempera-
tures and test conditions since
the optocouplers under consider-
ation are typically mounted in
close proximity to each other and
are switching identical IGBTs.
