摘要: In some examples, an apparatus includes an isolating transformer and a grounding circuit. The isolating transformer has first and second coils separated by an isolation barrier, the first coil having first and second terminals. The grounding circuit is coupled to the first and second terminals. The grounding circuit is configured to couple the first and second terminals to a ground terminal during a first time period. The grounding circuit is also configured to decouple the first and second terminals from the ground terminal during a second time period.

摘要: An inductively coupled multi-channel digital isolator where the transmitter and receiver inductive loops of a given channel are coplanar. In the case where two adjacent channels flow data in opposite directions, the receiver inductive loops of a given channel include a large, generally conventional loop portion and a small loop portion that is located inside the transmitter inductive loops of the adjacent channels. The sizes of the small loop portion and the conventional loop portion are generally in the ratio of the magnetic flux in the conventional loop portion to the magnetic flux in the transmitter inductive loop. This size relationship results in the voltage of the small loop portion being very close but opposite in sign to the voltage in the conventional loop portion. As a result, there is minimal crosstalk from the transmitter inductive loop of one channel to the receiver inductive loop of the adjacent channel.

摘要: An example packaged IC includes a lead frame having a supply pin and a ground pin. The supply pin includes first and second supply leads extending from a proximal portion of the supply pin. The ground pin includes first and second ground leads extending from a proximal portion of the ground pin. A first IC network has a first supply terminal coupled to the first supply lead via a first conductor (e.g., bond wire or bump bond). The first IC network also has a first ground terminal coupled to the first ground lead via a second conductor. A second IC network has a second supply terminal coupled to the second supply lead via a third conductor. The second IC network also has a second ground terminal coupled to the second ground lead via a fourth conductor.

摘要: An encoding and transmitting system for a digital isolator system includes a transmitter for transmitting combined edge indicator signals through an isolation barrier, an encoder for generating the combined edge indicator signals based on first and second signals, a refresh clock generator for generating a refresh clock signal based on the first signal, and a refresh edge generator for masking at least a portion of the refresh clock signal, such that the portion of the refresh clock signal is not reflected in the second signal. The isolation barrier of the digital isolator system may be a capacitive isolation barrier for galvanically isolating a receiver from the transmitter. If desired, the refresh edge generator may include a refresh mask generator, one or more logic gates, and a glitch filter. A method of operating a digital isolator system is also described.
