Optoisolators, also known as optocouplers, are an isolator technology designed to protect not only power and ground circuits, but also digital and analog signals between two or more systems. This isolation can prevent any direct connection, preventing harmful noise, voltage spikes, and ground loops. They are commonly used in industrial automation to enhance equipment reliability, as well as to provide safety to both workers and equipment from potential electronic hazards. In particular, optoisolators with a logic output, such as the HCPL-2631-020E, are designed to couple logic signals between two isolated domains. In this article, we will explore the application fields and working principle of the HCPL-2631-020E.

To begin, the HCPL-2631-020E is a high-speed, low-power optoisolator designed to couple logic signals between two isolated domains. This optoisolator has a relatively wide operating temperature range from -40°C to 85°C, making it ideal for a variety of applications. The HCPL-2631-020E provides up to 2kV of isolation between two systems, and its active surge protection feature can protect the user\'s system from surges up to 8kV. In addition, this optoisolator has a built-in PTC device, providing enhanced safety from abnormal currents and reducing the need for an external protection circuit.

The HCPL-2631-020E is suitable for use in a variety of logic control and data transfers applications. This optoisolator is ideal for use in communication interfaces such as RS232, USB, and CAN bus, as well as in motor control systems, factory automation systems, and protective relays. The HCPL-2631-020E is also suitable for use in industrial I/O interfaces, such as PWM, Pulse Width Modulation, and serial encoders.

The working principle of the HCPL-2631-020E is straightforward and, at its core, simple. This optoisolator consists of two separate subsystems, the input circuit and the output circuit. The input circuit consists of an LED and an associated bias resistor that act together as a light source. When an input signal is applied to the input circuit, the LED emits an optical signal, which is detected by the output circuit. This output signal is then converted to an appropriate voltage level to be transmitted to the output subcircuit.

The output subcircuit of the HCPL-2631-020E consists of an integrated photodiode that is used to detect the emitted optical signal. The photodiode converts this optical signal to an electrical signal which is then amplified to the required level. Once amplified, the output is then transmitted to the output device as a logic signal. The HCPL-2631-020E also incorporates emitter-follower circuits and clamping diodes, which ensure the optoisolator\'s safe operation.

In summary, the HCPL-2631-020E is a high-speed, low-power optoisolator designed specifically to couple logic signals between two isolated domains. This optoisolator provides up to 2kV of isolation between two systems and its PTC device and surge protection capabilities offer enhanced system protection. The HCPL-2631-020E is suitable for use in communication, motor control, and factory automation systems, as well as in industrial I/O interfaces. Furthermore, the working principle of the HCPL-2631-020E is relatively straightforward, and the optoisolator is composed of two separate subcircuits.
