Abstract:

A digital isolator encoding and decoding scheme for isolation drive circuits is designed using the isolation transmission method of stacked micro on-chip transformers. In view of the high radio frequency modulation power consumption, pulse modulation rate limitations, and reliability issues in existing isolator mainstream encoding and decoding schemes, single and double pulse encoding and decoding technology is adopted to reduce power consumption and optimize encoding and decoding methods in this study. Compared with traditional single and double pulse decoding methods, replacing the sampled pulse signal in the decoding circuit with an edge triggered signal improves reliability, increases signal transmission rate by nearly twice, reduces delay time, and combines refresh timing circuit and watchdog circuit to achieve reliable transmission of digital isolators. The experimental results show that the digital signal achieves isolated transmission of DC~90 Mbit·s-1. The overall static power consumption of encoding and decoding is 0.574 mA, the dynamic power consumption is 0.257 mA·(Mbit·s-1)-1, the delay time is less than 18 ns, and the pulse width distortion is less than 2 ns.

Key words: on chip transformer, digital isolator, encoding and decoding, pulse modulation, high speed, low latency, high reliability, low power consumption
