Digital Optoisolators:
An Overview
Figure 3 shows a photodiode cas-
caded amplifier, coupled to a Schott-
ky transistor, open collector output
stage. In order for an open collector
output stage to function, a pull-up
resistor is required at the output of
the Optoisolator.
Figure 4 shows a photodiode and
cascaded amplifier, coupled to a
totem pole output stage. This type
of output stage eliminates the ne-
cessity of using a pull-up resistor
at the output. The outputs can sink
or source current allowing higher
output power drive capability.
Figure 5 shows a push-pull CMOS
output stage. These types of optoi-
solators are designed to achieve
highest speed performance (up to
25 M bit/s for HCPL-7721/7720). The
amplifier stage presents very low
input impedance to the photodiode,
and does not become saturated,
while allowing the signal to be am-
plified several folds through the am-
plifier stages, allowing operation at
relatively low LED drive currents (2
to 5 mA).
