DESCRIPTION
The ACPL-C79B/C79A/C790 isolation amplifiers are designed for current and voltage sensing in electronic power converters in applications including motor drives and renewable energy systems. In a typical motor drive implementation, current flows through an external resistor and the resulting analog voltage drop is sensed by the isolation amplifier. A differential output voltage that is proportional to the current is created on the other side of the optical isolation barrier. For general applications, the ACPL-C79A (±1% gain tolerance) and With 200 kHz bandwidth, 1.6 µs fast response time, the product captures transients in short circuit and
