Description

The Avago ACPL-C799 isolated sigma-delta (–) modulator converts an analog input signal into a high-speed (10 MHz typical)

single-bit data stream by means of a sigma-delta over-sampling modulator. The time average of the modulator data is directly

proportional to the input signal voltage. The modulator uses internal speed of 10 MHz. The modulator data are encoded and

transmitted across the isolation boundary where they are recovered and decoded into high-speed data stream of digital ones and

zeros. The original signal information is represented by the density of ones in the data output.

The input signal information is contained in the modulator output data stream, represented by the density of ones and zeros. The

density of ones is proportional to the input signal voltage, as shown in Figure 1. A differential input signal of 0 V ideally produces a

data stream of ones 50 percent of the time and zeros 50 percent of the time. A differential input of –50 mV corresponds to 18.75

percent density of ones, and a differential input of +50 mV is represented by 81.25 percent density of ones in the data stream. A

differential input of +80 mV or higher results in ideally all ones in the data stream, while input of –80 mV or lower will result in all

zeros ideally. Table 1 shows this relationship.

Preparation and Setup

A digital filter converts the single-bit data stream from the modulator into a multi-bit output word similar to the digital output of a

conventional A/D converter. With this conversion, the data rate of the word output is also reduced (decimation). A Sinc3 filter is

recommended to work together with the ACPL-C799. With a 10-MHz internal clock frequency, 256 decimation ratio and 16-bit

word settings, the output data rate is 39 kHz (= 10 MHz/256). This filter can be implemented in an ASIC, an FPGA, or a DSP.

In this evalboard, Sinc3 filter is implemented using Xilinx Spartan XC3S250E FPGA. The FPGA hardware is designed in Verilog/VHDL

environment. Major building block are the Digital Filter and USB interface control as shown in Figure 2. The design is synthesized

and implemented using Xilinx Tool to a bitstream file. This bitstream file can be loaded to FPGA through USB, which is already done

for each evalboard kit shipped to customer.

Measurement

Figure 7 Measurement

There are few ways to apply the input signal into the evalboard:

Apply input current signal with Shunt Resistor

One example to select the shunt resistor value is shown below:

If maximum rms current through motor = 100A, 20 percent overloads during normal operation, then, peak current is 170 A

(= 100 × 1.414 × 1.2). Recommended maximum input voltage for ACPL-C799 = ±50mV.

Shunt resistor value = V/I = 50mV/170A ≈ 0.3m

Power dissipation = I2× R = (100)2× 0.3m= 3W

The shunt resistor mounting pad is designed to accommodate various shunt resistor package types. The Kelvin connection

PCB trace connects from the center of the pad to the inputs of ACPL-C799 through the anti-aliasing filters (AAFs). Connecting

from the center of the pads is usually the optimum location for most shunt resistor designs. The evalboard also provides pads

P1 and P2 for soldering thick cables to the motor driving board.

Apply input voltage signal without shunt resistor

Connect the audio cable with the audio 3.5-mm jack connected to either a PC, smart phone, tablet, MP3 player, or any kind of

audio player device. Then, connect the crocodile clips to the shunt resistor mounting pads.

By checking the 1kHz sine test signal, you can supply a 1 kHz sine wave voltage signal into the evaluation board. Other

methods include running any of the three sine wave files provided from a music player software program in audio player

devices as described previously. Adjust the volume until the signal level is near ±50mV or ±20,000 ADC counts for best

SNR/SNDR performance.

The performance of SNR/SNDR is dependent on a few factors:

—The evalboard

—The sigma-delta modulator used, in this case, the ACPL-C799

—Input signal frequency used

—The decimation ratio, which can be set at the application GUI to 256, 128, 64, or 32.

—The input signal level. ACPL-C799 recommended input voltage range is from –50mV to 50mV. To achieve the best

SNR/SNDR, it is recommended to design the maximum input signal range near to ±50mV (selection of input current range

and shunt resistor value).

—The input signal source.

Table 2 shows a comparison of the SNR/SNDR performance between audio signal source coming from a laptop and a smart

phone.

Measurement

Lab bench test: Apply input voltage signal from a function generator with 1shunt resistor mounted on the input of

evaluation board.

When a voltage signal is sourced from a function generator to the evaluation board without a shunt resistor connected as

shown in Figure 8, input bias current of about 0.18mA from the ACPL-C799 will cause a 9mV offset on the function generator

output due to the 50source impedance of the function generator.

Figure 8 Sourcing the Voltage Signal from a Function Generator to the Evaluation Board without a Shunt Resistor Connected

A more accurate method to measure the performance of the ACPL-C799 evaluation board is to connect a 1shunt resistor,

then supply the voltage signal from a function generator that can drive sufficient current through the 1shunt resistor until

an input signal level of ±50mV is reached. One such function generator is the ultra low distortion DS360 function generator

from Standford Research Systems.

Table 3 shows the SNR/SNDR performance using this method.

If such a function generator is not available, it is best to connect an actual shunt resistor and connect to customer's current sensing

system directly.

PCB Modifications

1. Vdd1 is supplied from the 5V/5V isolated dc/dc converter. You can also supply Vdd1 from a 9V battery through the

L78L05ACUTR LDO regulator. To do that, ensure that R45 is disconnected.

2. The ACPL-C799 Vdd2 is supplied from the 3.3V regulator. If you need to check the performance or troubleshoot the ACPL-C799

component only at Vdd2=5V, you can mount a 0R47 resistor. In this instance, the Vdd2 is supplied directly from the USB

power, 5VCC. Note that you have to remove R18, R19, and R20 because the FPGA I/O pins may not be able to take 5V.

3. The green LED1 signals the detection of ACPL-C799.

4. LED2, LED3, and LED4 are not defined. If you want to modify the FPG, you can use these LED indicators for other functions.

5. The H1 and H2 connector pins are physically connected to the FPGA. If you want to modify the FPGA, you can make use of

these connector pins for input (I/P) or input/output (I/O).

Troubleshooting

1. After switching on SW1, if the green DONE LED does not come on, reset the FPGA by pressing SW2 once. If the problem still

does not go away, perform a full board reset by pressing SW3 once.

2. Each evalboard sent to the customer is functionally checked and tested. If the problem does not go away, consult a Broadcom

Application Engineer. If need be, Broadcom will send a new board.
