PROGRAMMABLE GAIN AMPLIFIER  
FEATURES  
DESCRIPTION  
RATED  
ISO254 is a precision three-port isolated program-  
mable gain instrumentation amplifier incorporating a  
novel duty cycle modulation-demodulation technique  
and has excellent accuracy. Internal input protection  
can withstand up to ±40V input differential without  
damage. The signal is transmitted digitally across a  
differential capacitive barrier. With digital modulation  
the barrier characteristics do not affect signal integrity.  
This results in excellent reliability and good high  
frequency transient immunity across the barrier. The  
DC/DC converter, amplifier and barrier capacitors are  
housed in a plastic DIP.

Any integrated circuit can be damaged by ESD. Burr-Brown  
recommends that all integrated circuits be handled with  
appropriate precautions. Failure to observe proper handling  
and installation procedures can cause damage.  
ESD damage can range from subtle performance degrada-  
tion to complete device failure. Precision integrated circuits  
may be more susceptible to damage because very small  
parametric changes could cause the device not to meet  
published specifications.

ISO254  
INPUT COMMON-MODE RANGE  
BASIC OPERATION  
The linear common-mode range of the input circuitry of the  
ISO254 is approximately ±12.7V (or 2.3V from the power  
supplies). As the output voltage increases, however, the  
linear input range will be limited by the output voltage swing  
of the internal amplifiers. Thus, the linear common-mode  
range is related to the output voltage of the complete input  
amplifier—see performance curves “Input Common-Mode  
Range vs Output Voltage.”  
ISO254 is a precision, powered, three-port isolated program-  
mable-gain amplifier. The input and output sections are  
galvanically isolated by matched and EMI shielded capaci-  
tors built into the plastic package. The DC/DC converter  
input is also galvanically isolated from both the input and  
output supplies.  
SIGNAL AND POWER CONNECTIONS  
A combination of common-mode and differential input  
voltage can cause the output voltage of the internal amplifi-  
ers to saturate. For applications where input common-mode  
range must be maximized, limit the output voltage swing by  
selecting a lower gain of the programmable-gain input.  
Figure 1 shows proper power and signal connections. The  
power supply input pin +VS3 should be bypassed with a  
2.2µF tantalum capacitor and the outputs VS1 and VS2 with  
220nF ceramic capacitors located as close to the amplifier as  
possible. All ground connections should be run indepen-  
dently to a common point. Signal Common on the output  
section provides a low-impedance point for sensing signal  
ground in noisy applications. Com1 and Com2 must have a  
path to ground for signal current return and should be  
maintained within ±1V of GND1 and GND2 respectively.  
Input-overload can produce an output voltage that appears  
normal. For example, an input voltage of +20V on one input  
and +40V on the other input will exceed the linear common-  
mode range of both input amplifiers. Since both input  
amplifiers are saturated to nearly the same output voltage  
limit, the difference voltage measured by the output ampli-  
fier will be near zero. The output of the programmable-gain  
amplifier will be near 0V even though both inputs are  
overloaded.

ISO254  
INPUT PROTECTION  
When connecting up to eight ISO254’s without a driver the  
unit with the highest natural frequency will determine the  
synchronized running frequency. The SYNC pin is sensitive  
to capacitive loading: 150pF or less is recommended. If  
unused, the SYNC pin should be left open. Avoid shorting  
the SYNC pin directly to ground or supply potentials;  
otherwise damage may result.  
The inputs of the programmable-gain amplifiers are indi-  
vidually protected for voltages up to ±40V. Internal circuitry  
on each input provides low series impedance under normal  
signal conditions. If the input is overloaded, the protection  
circuitry limits the input current to a safe value (approxi-  
mately 1.5mA). The inputs are protected even if no power  
supply is present.  
Soft start circuitry protects the MOSFET switches during  
startup. This is accomplished by holding the gate-to-source  
voltage of both MOSFET switches low until the free-run-  
ning oscillator is fully operational. In addition, soft start  
circuitry and input current sensing also protects the switches.  
This current limiting keeps the MOSFET switches operating  
in their safe operating area under fault conditions or exces-  
sive loads. When either of these conditions occur, the peak  
input current exceeds a safe limit. The result is an approxi-  
mate 5% duty cycle, 300µs drive period to the MOSFET  
switches. This protects the internal MOSFET switches as  
well as the external load from any thermal damage. When  
the fault or excessive load is removed, the converter resumes  
normal operation. A delay period of approximately 50µs  
incorporated in the current sensing circuitry allows the  
output filter capacitors to fully charge after a fault is re-  
moved. This delay period corresponds to a filter capacitance  
of no more than 1µf at either of the output pins. This  
provides full protection of the MOSFET switches and also  
sufficiently filters the output ripple voltage. The current  
sensing circuitry is designed to provide thermal protection  
for the MOSFET switches over the operating temperature  
range as well. When these conditions are exceeded, the unit  
will go into its shutdown mode.  
DC/DC CONVERTER  
ISO254 provides a reliable solution to the need for integral  
power. The high isolation rating being achieved by careful  
design and attention to the physical construction of the  
transformer. In addition to the high dielectric strength a low  
leakage coating increases the isolation voltage range. The  
soft start oscillator/driver design eliminates high inrush  
currents during turn-on. Input current sensing protects both  
the converter and the load from possible thermal damage  
during a fault condition. The DC/DC converter is synchro-  
nized to the amplifier and when multiple ISO254’s are used,  
each channel can be synchronized via the SYNC pin.  
The DC/DC converter consists of a free-running oscillator,  
control and switch driver circuitry, MOSFET switches, a  
transformer, rectifier diodes and filter capacitors all con-  
tained within the ISO254 package. The control circuitry  
consists of current limiting, soft start and synchronization  
features. In instances where several ISO254’s are used in a  
system, beat frequencies developed between the ISO254’s  
are a potential source of low frequency noise in the supply  
and ground paths. This noise may couple into the signal path  
and can be avoided by synchronizing the individual ISO254’s  
together by tying the SYNC pins together or using the circuit  
in Figure 2 to drive the SYNC pins from an external source.  
OUTPUT CURRENT RATINGS  
The total current which can be drawn from each output  
supply on the ISO254 is a function of the total power drawn  
from all outputs. For example if three outputs are not used  
then maximum current can be drawn from one output. In all  
cases, the total maximum current that can be drawn from any  
combination of outputs is:

The waveform of the ground return current is an 800kHz  
sawtooth. A capacitor between +VS3 and GND3 provides a  
bypass for the AC portion of this current. The power should  
never be instantaneously interrupted to the ISO254 (i.e., a  
break in the line to +VS3 either by accidental or switch  
means.) Normal power down of the +VS3 supply is not  
considered instantaneous. Should a rapid break in input  
power occur the internal transformers voltage will rapidly  
rise to maintain current flow and may cause internal damage  
to the ISO254.

ISO254  
SYNCHRONIZED OPERATION  
Due to effects of very high-frequency signals, typical IMV  
performance can be achieved only when dV/dT of the  
isolation mode voltage falls below 1000V/µs. For conve-  
nience, this is plotted in the typical performance curves  
for the ISO254 as a function of voltage and frequency for  
sinusoidal voltages. When dV/dT exceeds 1000V/µs but  
falls below 20kV/µs, performance may be degraded. At rates  
of change above 20kV/µs, the amplifier may be damaged,  
but the barrier retains its full integrity. Lowering the power  
supply voltage below 15V may decrease the dV/dT to  
500V/µs for typical performance, but the maximum dV/dT  
of 20kV/µs remains unchanged.  
ISO254 can be synchronized to an external signal source.  
This capability is useful in eliminating troublesome beat  
frequencies in multi-channel systems and in rejecting AC  
signals and their harmonics. To use this feature, tie all sync  
pins together or apply an external signal to the SYNC pin.  
ISO254 can be synchronized to an external oscillator over  
the range 1-1.4MHz (this corresponds to a modulation fre-  
quency of 500kHz to 700kHz as SYNC is internally divided  
by 2).  
CARRIER FREQUENCY CONSIDERATIONS  
Leakage current is determined solely by the impedance of  
the barrier and transformer capacitance and is plotted in the  
“Isolation Leakage Current vs Frequency” curve.  
ISO254 amplifiers transmit the signal across the ISO-barrier  
by a duty-cycle modulation technique. This system works  
like any linear amplifier for input signals having frequencies  
below one half the carrier frequency, fC. For signal frequen-  
cies above fC/2, the behavior becomes more complex. The  
“Signal Response vs Carrier Frequency” performance curve  
describes this behavior graphically. The upper curve illus-  
trates the response for input signals varying from DC to fC/  
2. At input frequencies at or above fC/2, the device generates  
an output signal component that varies in both amplitude  
and frequency, as shown by the lower curve. The lower  
horizontal scale shows the periodic variation in the fre-  
quency of the output component. Note that at the carrier  
frequency and its harmonics, both the frequency and ampli-  
tude of the response go to zero. These characteristics can be  
exploited in certain applications.  
ISOLATION VOLTAGE RATINGS  
Because a long-term test is impractical in a manufacturing  
situation, the generally accepted practice is to perform a  
production test at a higher voltage for some shorter time.  
The relationship between actual test voltage and the continu-  
ous derated maximum specification is an important one.  
Historically, Burr-Brown has chosen a deliberately conser-  
vative one: VTEST = (2 x ACrms continuous rating) +  
1000V for 10 seconds, followed by a test at rated ACrms  
voltage for one minute. This choice was appropriate for  
conditions where system transients are not well defined.  
Recent improvements in high-voltage stress testing have  
produced a more meaningful test for determining maximum  
permissible voltage ratings, and Burr-Brown has chosen to  
apply this new technology in the manufacture and testing of  
the ISO254.  
It should be noted that for the ISO254, the carrier frequency  
is nominally 400kHz and the –3dB point of the amplifier is  
50kHz. Spurious signals at the output are not significant  
under these circumstances unless the input signal contains  
significant components above 200kHz.  
When periodic noise from external sources such as system  
clocks and DC/DC converters are a problem, ISO254 can be  
used to reject this noise. The amplifier can be synchronized  
to an external frequency source, fEXT, placing the amplifier  
response curve at one of the frequency and amplitude nulls  
indicated in the “Signal Response vs Carrier Frequency”  
performance curve.  
Partial Discharge  
When an insulation defect such as a void occurs within an  
insulation system, the defect will display localized corona or  
ionization during exposure to high-voltage stress. This ion-  
ization requires a higher applied voltage to start the  
discharge and lower voltage to maintain it or extinguish it  
once started. The higher start voltage is known as the  
inception voltage, while the extinction voltage is that level  
of voltage stress at which the discharge ceases. Just as the  
total insulation system has an inception voltage, so do the  
individual voids. A voltage will build up across a void until  
its inception voltage is reached, at which point the void will  
ionize, effectively shorting itself out. This action redistrib-  
utes electrical charge within the dielectric and is known as  
partial discharge. If, as is the case with AC, the applied  
voltage gradient across the device continues to rise, another  
partial discharge cycle begins. The importance of this  
phenomenon is that, if the discharge does not occur, the  
insulation system retains its integrity. If the discharge be-  
gins, and is allowed to continue, the action of the ions and  
electrons within the defect will eventually degrade any  
organic insulation system in which they occur. The measure-  
ment of partial discharge is still useful in rating the devices  
ISOLATION MODE VOLTAGE  
Isolation Mode Voltage (IMV) is the voltage appearing  
between isolated grounds GND1 and GND2. The IMV can  
induce errors at the output as indicated by the plots of IMV  
vs Frequency. It should be noted that if the IMV frequency  
exceeds fC/2, the output will display spurious outputs in a  
manner similar to that described above, and the amplifier  
response will be identical to that shown in the “Signal  
Response vs Carrier Frequency” performance curve. This  
occurs because IMV-induced errors behave like input-  
referred error signals. To predict the total IMR, divide the  
isolation voltage by the IMR shown in “IMR vs Frequency”  
performance curve and compute the amplifier response to  
this input-referred error signal from the data given in the  
“Signal Response vs Carrier Frequency” performance curve.

and providing quality control of the manufacturing process.  
The inception voltage for these voids tends to be constant, so  
that the measurement of total charge being redistributed  
within the dielectric is a very good indicator of the size of the  
voids and their likelihood of becoming an incipient failure.  
The bulk inception voltage, on the other hand, varies with  
the insulation system, and the number of ionization defects  
and directly establishes the absolute maximum voltage (tran-  
sient) that can be applied across the test device before  
destructive partial discharge can begin. Measuring the bulk  
extinction voltage provides a lower, more conservative volt-  
age from which to derive a safe continuous rating. In  
production, measuring at a level somewhat below the ex-  
pected inception voltage and then de-rating by a factor  
related to expectations about system transients is an ac-  
cepted practice.  
measurement of RF noise to detect ionization. This method  
was not quantitative with regard to energy of the discharge,  
and was not sensitive enough for small components such as  
isolation amplifiers. Now, however, manufacturers of HV  
test equipment have developed means to quantify partial  
discharge. VDE in Germany, an acknowledged leader in  
high-voltage test standards, has developed a standard test  
method to apply this powerful technique. Use of partial  
discharge testing is an improved method for measuring the  
integrity of an isolation barrier.  
To accommodate poorly-defined transients, the part under  
test is exposed to voltage that is 1.6 times the continuous-  
rated voltage and must display less than or equal to 5pC  
partial discharge level in a 100% production test.  
APPLICATIONS  
The ISO254 isolation amplifiers are used in three categories  
of applications:  
Partial Discharge Testing  
Not only does this test method provide far more qualitative  
information about stress-withstand levels than did previous  
stress tests, but it provides quantitative measurements from  
which quality assurance and control measures can be based.  
Tests similar to this test have been used by some manufac-  
turers, such as those of high-voltage power distribution  
equipment, for some time, but they employed a simple
