General Description
Basic Function
In an electrical circuit, an optocoupler ensures total electric isolation, including potential isolation, as in the case of a transformer, for instance. In practice, this means that the control circuit is located on one side of the optocoupler, i.e., the emitter side, while the load circuit is located on the other side, i.e., the receiver side. Both circuits are electrically isolated by the optocoupler (figure 5). Signals from the control circuit are transmitted optically to the load circuit, and are therefore free of retroactive effects. In most cases, this optical transmission is realized with light beams whose wavelengths span the red to infrared range, depending on the requirements applicable to the optocoupler. The bandwidth of the signal to be transmitted ranges from a dc voltage signal to frequencies in the MHz band. An optocoupler is comparable to a transformer or relay. Besides having smaller dimensions in most cases, the advantages of optocouplers compared to relays are the following: it ensures considerably shorter switching times, no contact bounce, no interference caused by arcs, no mechanical wear and the possibility of adapting a signal, already in the coupler, to the following stage in the circuitry. Thanks to all these advantages, optocouplers are outstandingly suitable for circuits used in microelectronics and also in data processing and telecommunication systems. Optocouplers are used to an increasing extent as safety tested components, e. g., in switchmode power supplies.
Design
An optocoupler has to fulfill 5 essential requirements:
D Good insulation behavior D High current transfer ratio (CTR) D Low degradation
20
Thanks to their large clearance these couplers have a very low coupling capacity of 0.2 pF. Couplers with conventional designs, i.e., where the emitter and receiver are fitted face-to-face (figure 7), have higher coupling capacitance values by a factor of 1.3 - 2. Attention must be paid to the coupling capacitance in digital circuits in which steep pulse edges are produced which superimpose themselves on the control signal. With a low coupling capacitance, the transmission capabilities of these interference spikes are effectively suppressed between the input and output because a coupler should only transmit the effective signal. This capability of suppressing dynamic interferences is commonly known as common-mode rejection.
If inversions occur on the surface, the phototransistor becomes forward-biased, causing an inadmissible residual collector-emitter current. As a result, controlled functioning of the coupler is no longer guaranteed (figure 8). This effect occurs mainly whenever the receiver is within the field strength potential. The manufacturer should create suitable protective measures in this case. Using TEMICs optocouplers, such protective measures are not necessary thanks to their perfect design. The degradation of an optocoupler, i.e., impairment of its CTR over a finite period, depends on two factors. On the one hand, it depends on the emitter element due to its decreasing radiation power while, on the other hand, it depends on ageing or opaqueness of the synthetic resin which must transmit the radiation from the emitter to the receiver. A decrease in the radiation power can be primarily ascribed to thermal stress caused by an external, high ambient temperature and/or high a forward current. In practice, optocouplers are operated with forward current of 1 to 30 mA through the emitting diode. In this range, degradation at an average temperature of 40C is less than 5% after 1000 h. If we compare this value with the service life requirements applicable to transistors for high grade systems (such as those used in telecommunication system standards), the optocoupler takes a good position with such degradation values. The Deutsche Bundespost, for example, permits a B-drift of no more than 20% for transistors with a maximum testing time of 2000 h. In general, an optocouplers life time is a period of 150.000 h, i.e, the CTR should not have dropped below 50% of its value at 0 hours during this time (see figure 9).
Due to the special design of these couplers, the receiver surface is outside the area of the direct field strength. Field strength is produced when there is a voltage potential between the couplers input and output. It causes the migration of positive ions to the transistors surface. Positive ions perform on the base in the same way as a gate voltage applied to an n-channel FET transistor (see figure 8).

Emitter Emitters are manufactured using the most modern Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE) process. By using this technology, the number of undesirable flaws in the crystal is reduced. This results in a higher quantum efficiency and thus higher radiation power. Distortions in the crystal are prevented by using mesa technology which leads to lower degradation. A further advantage of the mesa technology is that each individual chip can be tested optically and electrically even on the wafer. Detector

TEMIC detectors have been developed so that they match perfectly to the emitter. They have low capacitance values, high photosensitivity and are designed for an extremely low saturation voltage. Silicon nitride passivation protects the surface against possible impurities. Assembly The components are fitted onto lead frames by fully automatic equipment using conductive epoxy adhesive. Contacts are established automatically with digital pattern recognition using the well-proven thermosonic technique. In addition to optical and mechanical checks, all couplers are measured at a temperature of 100C.

Static Measurements
To measure the collector current, IC (figure 14), a specified forward current, IF, is applied to the lR diode. Voltage drop is then measured across a low-emitter resistance. In the case of collector-emitter saturation voltage, VCEsat (figure 15), a forward current, IF, is applied to the IR diode and a low collector current, IC, in the phototransistor. VCEsat is then measured across collector and emitter terminals as shown in figure 15.

Assembly Instructions
General
Optoelectronic semiconductor devices can be mounted in any position. Connecting wires of less than 0.5 mm diameter may be bent, provided the bend is not less than 1.5 mm from the bottom of the case and no mechanical stress has an affect on it. Connection wires of larger diameters, should not be bent. If the device is to be mounted near heat-generating components, consideration must be given to the resultant increase in ambient temperature.
Soldering Instructions
Protection against overheating is essential when a device is being soldered. Therefore, the connection wires should be left as long as possible. The time during which the specified maximum permissible device junction temperature is exceeded at the soldering process should be as short as possible (one minute maximum). In the case of plastic encapsulated devices, the maximum permissible soldering temperature is governed by the maximum permissible heat that may be applied to the encapsulant rather than by the maximum permissible junction temperature. The maximum soldering iron (or solder bath) temperatures are given in table 2. During soldering, no forces must be transmitted from the pins to the case (e.g., by spreading the pins).

Soldering Methods
There are several methods for soldering devices onto the substrate. The following list is not complete. (a) Soldering in the vapor phase
D Size of the printed circuit board D Absorption coefficient of the surfaces D Packing density D Wavelength spectrum of the radiation source D Ratio of radiated and convected energy
Temperature/time profiles of the entire process and the influencing parameters are given in figure 26. (c) Wave soldering
Soldering in saturated vapor is also known as condensation soldering. This soldering process is used as a batch system (dual vapor system) or as a continuous single vapor system. Both systems may also include a pre-heating of the assemblies to prevent high temperature shock and other undesired effects. (b) Infrared soldering
By using infrared (IR) reflow soldering, the heating is contact-free and the energy for heating the assembly is derived from direct infrared radiation and from convection. The heating rate in an IR furnace depends on the absorption coefficients of the material surfaces and on the ratio of components mass to an As-irradiated surface. The temperature of parts in an IR furnace, with a mixture of radiation and convection, cannot be determined in advance. Temperature measurement may be performed by measuring the temperature of a certain component while it is being transported through the furnace. The temperatures of small components, soldered together with larger ones, may rise up to 280_C. Influencing parameters on the internal temperature of the component are as follows:
In wave soldering one or more continuously replenished waves of molten solder are generated, while the substrates to be soldered are moved in one direction across the crest of the wave. Temperature/time profiles of the entire process are given in figure 26. (d) Iron soldering
This process cannot be carried out in a controlled situation. It should therefore not be used in applications where reliability is important. There is no SMD classification for this process. (e) Laser soldering
This is an excess heating soldering method. The energy absorbed may heat the device to a much higher temperature than desired. There is no SMD classification for this process at the moment. (f) Resistance soldering
This is a soldering method which uses temperature-controlled tools (thermodes) for making solder joints. There is no SMD classification for this process at the moment.

Heat Removal
The heat generated in the semiconductor junction(s) must be moved to the ambient. In the case of low-power devices, the natural heat conductive path between case and surrounding air is usually adequate for this purpose. In the case of medium-power devices, however, heat conduction may have to be improved by the use of staror flag-shaped heat dissipators which increase the heat radiating surface. The heat generated in the junction is conveyed to the case or header by conduction rather than convection; a measure of the effectiveness of heat conduction is the inner thermal resistance or thermal resistance junction case, RthJC, whose value is given by the construction of the device. Any heat transfer from the case to the surrounding air involves radiation convection and conduction, the effectiveness of transfer being expressed in terms of an RthCA value, i.e., the case ambient thermal resistance. The total thermal resistance, junction ambient is therefore: RthJA = RthJC + RthCA The total maximum power dissipation, Ptotmax, of a semiconductor device can be expressed as follows: P totmax
case of the device should be mounted directly onto the cooling plate. The edge length, a, derived from figures 25 and 26 in order to obtain a given RthCA value, must be multiplied with a and b:
a
where
a a b b
= 1.00 for vertical arrangement = 1.15 for horizontal arrangement = 1.00 for bright surface = 0.85 for dull black surface
Example For an IR emitter with Tjmax = 100C and RthJC = 100 K/W, calculate the edge length for a 2 mm thick aluminium square sheet having a dull black surface (b = 0.85) and vertical arrangement (a = 1), Tamb = 70C and Ptot max = 200 mW. P tot max R thCA R thCA

where: Tjmax the maximum allowable junction temperature Tamb the highest ambient temperature likely to be reached under the most unfavourable conditions RthJC the thermal resistance, junction case RthJA the thermal resistance, junction ambient RthCA the thermal resistance, case ambient, depends on cooling conditions. If a heat dissipator or sink is used, then RthCA depends on the thermal contact between case and heat sink, heat propagation conditions in the sink and the rate at which heat is transferred to the surrounding air. Therefore, the maximum allowable total power dissipation for a given semiconductor device can be influenced only by changing Tamb and RthCA. The value of RthCA could be obtained either from the data of heat sink suppliers or through direct measurements. In the case of cooling plates as heat sinks, the approach outlines in figures 25 and 26 can be used as guidelines. The curves shown in both figures 25 and 26 give the thermal resistance RthCA of square plates of aluminium with edge length, a, and with different thicknesses. The

With RthCA = 50 k/W and DT = 10C, a plate of 2 mm thickness has an edge length a = 28 mm.
However, equipment life and reliability have to be taken into consideration and therefore a larger sink would normally be used to avoid operating the devices continuously at their maximum permissible junction temperature.

Handling Instructions
Protection against Electrostatic Damage
Although electrostatic breakdown is most often associated with IC semiconductor devices, optoelectronic devices are also prone to such a breakdown. Miniaturized and highly integrated components are particularly sensitive. Use electrostatically safe equipment and machinery. Removal of Electrostatic Charges Connect conductors (metals, etc.) to ground, using dedicated grounding lines. To prevent dangerous shocks and damaging discharge surges, insert a resistance of 800 kW between conductor and grounding line. Connect conveyors, solder baths, measuring machines, and other equipment to ground, using dedicated, grounding lines. Use ionic blowers to neutralize electrostatic charges on insulators. Blowers pass charged air over the targeted object, neutralizing the existing charge. They are useful for discharging insulators or other objects that cannot be effectively grounded. Human Electrostatic The human body readily picks up electrostatic charges, and there is always some risk that human operators may cause electrostatic damages to the semiconductor devices they handle. The following counter measures are essential. Anti-Static Wrist Straps All people who come into direct contact with semiconductors should wear anti-static wrist straps, i.e., those in charges of parts supply and people involved in mounting, board assembly and repair. Be sure to insert a resistance of 800 kW to 1 MW into the straps. The resistance protects against electrical shocks and prevents instantaneous and potentially damaging discharges from charged semiconductor devices.
Sensitivity
Breakdown Voltages Typical electrostatic voltages in the working environment can easily reach several thousand volts, well above the level required to cause a breakdown. As market requirements are moving towards greater miniaturization, lower power consumption, and higher speeds, optoelectronic devices are becoming more integrated and delicate. This means that they are becoming increasingly sensitive to electrostatic effects. Device Breakdown Electrostatic discharge events are often imperceptible. This might cause the following problems. Delay Failure Electrostatic discharge may damage the device or change its characteristics without causing immediate failure. The device may pass inspection, move into the market, then fail during its initial period of use. Difficulty in Identifying Discharge Site Human beings generally cannot perceive electrostatic discharges of less than 3000 V, while semiconductor devices can sustain damage from electrostatic voltages as low as 100 V. It is often very difficult to locate the process at which electrostatic problems occur. Basic Countermeasures Optoelectronic devices must be protected from static electricity at all stages of processing. Each device must be protected from the time it is received until the time it has been incorporated into a finished assembly. Each processing stage should incorporate the following measures. Suppression of Electrostatic Generation Keep relative humidity at 50 to 70% (if humidity is above 70%, morning dew may cause condensation). Remove materials which might cause electrostatic generation (such as synthetic resins) from your workplace. Check the appropriateness of floor mats, clothing (uniforms, sweaters, shoes), parts trays, etc.
Be sure that the straps are placed directly next to the skin, placing them over gloves, uniforms or other clothing reduces their effectiveness. Antistatic Mats, Uniforms and Shoes The use of anti-static mats and shoes is effective in places where use of a wrist strap is inconvenient (for example, when placing boards into returnable boxes). To prevent static caused by friction with clothing, personnel should wear anti-static uniforms, gloves, sleeves aprons, finger covers, or cotton apparel. Protection during Inspection, Mounting and Assembly The personnel has to ensure that hands do not come into direct contact with leads. Avoid non-conductive finger covers. Cover the work desk with grounded anti-static mats. Storage and Transport Always use conductive foams, tubes, bags, reels or trays when storing or transporting semiconductor devices.
33
Mounting Precautions
Installation
Installation on PWB When mounting a device on PWB whose pin-hole pitch does not match the lead pin pitch of the device, reform the device pins appropriately so that the internal chip is not subjected to physical stress. Installation Using a Device Holder Emitters and detectors are often mounted using a holder. When using this method, make sure that there is no gap between the holder and device. Installation Using Screws When lead soldering is not adequate to securely retain a photointerrupter, it may be retained with screws. The tightening torque should not exceed 6 kg/cm3. An excessive tightening torque may deform the holder, which results in poor alignment of the optical axes and degrades performance. Lead Forming Lead pins should be formed before soldering. Do not apply forming stress to lead pins during or after soldering. For light emitters or detectors with lead frames, lead pins should be formed just beneath the stand-off cut section. For optocouplers or optosensors using dual-in-line packages, lead pins should be formed below the bent section so that forming stress does not affect the inside of the device. Stress to the resin may result in disconnection. When forming lead pins, do not bend the same portion repeatedly, otherwise the pins may break.
Cleaning
General Optoelectronic devices are particularly sensitive with regard to cleaning solvents. The Montreal Protocol for environmental protection calls for a complete ban on the use of chlorofluorocarbons. Therefore, the most harmless chemicals for optoelectronic devices should be used for environmental reasons. The best solution is to use a modem reflow paste or solder composition which does not require a cleaning procedure. No cleaning is required when the fluxes are guaranteed to be non-corrosive and of high, stable resistivity. Cleaning Procedures Certain kinds of cleaning solvents can dissolve or penetrate the transparent resins which are used in some types of sensors. Even black molding components used in standard isolators are frequently penetrated between the mold compound and lead frame. Inappropriate solvents may also remove the marking printed on a device. It is therefore essential to take care when choosing solvents to remove flux. Cleaning is not required if the flux in the solder material is non-aggressive and any residues are guaranteed to be non corrosive an longterm stable of high resistivity. In cleaning procedures using wet solvents only high purity Ethyl and Isopropyl alcohol are recommended. The S-series of DIL isolators is also suited for cleaning in high purity water. In each case, the devices are immersed in the liquid for typically 3 min. and afterwards immediately dried for at least 15 minutes at 50C in dry air. In table 3, appropriate cleaning procedures for various product lines are summarized.

Promote the breakage of band wires Intensified cleaning methods such as ultrasonic cleaning, steam cleaning, and brushing can cause damage to optoelectronic devices. They are generally not recommended. Ultrasonic cleaning (unless well controlled) can damage the devices due to its mechanical vibrations. Using high-intensity ultrasonic cleaning, the process might: a. Promote dissolution or crack the package surface and thus affect the performance of e.g., the sensors Promote separation of the lead frame and resin and thus reduce humidity resistance. This method should only be used after extensive trials have been run to ensure that problems do not occur. Brushing can scratch package surfaces. Moreover, it can remove printed markings. Special care should be taken to use only high purity or chemically well-controlled solvents. Especially chloride ions from flux or solvents that remain in the package are a high risk for the long-time stability of any electronic device. These as well as other promote corrosion on the chip which can interrupt all bond connections to the outside leads.

Reliability
The requirements concerning quality and reliability of products are always increasing. It is not sufficient to only deliver faultfree parts. In addition, it must be ensured that the delivered goods serve their purpose safely and failure free, i.e., reliably. From the delivery of the device and up to its use in a final product, there are some occasions where the device or the final product may fail despite testing and outgoing inspection. In principle, this sequence is valid for all components of a product. For these reasons, the negative consequences of a failure, which become more serious and expensive the later they occur, are obvious. The manufacturer is therefore interested in supplying products with the lowest possible

Statistical Process Control (SPC) R&R (Repeatability and Reproducibility) tests Up Time Control (UTC) Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) Design Of Experiments (DOE) Quality Function Deployment (QFD)
TEMIC Semiconductors has been using SPC as a tool in production since 1990/91. By using SPC, deviations from the process control goals are quickly established. This allows control of the processes before the process parameters run out of specified limits. To assure control of the processes, each process step is observed and supervised by trained personnel. Results are documented. Process capabilities are measured and expressed by the process capability index (Cpk). Validation of the process capability is required for new processes before they are released for production. Before using new equipment and new gauges in production, machine capability (Cmk = machine capability index) or R&R (Repeatability & Reproducibility) is used to validate the equipments fitness for use. UpTime is recorded by an UpTime Control (UTC) system. This data determines the intervals for preventive maintenance, which is the basis for the maintenance plan. A processFMEA is performed for all processes (FMEA = Failure Mode and Effect Analysis). In addition, a design or product FMEA is used for critical products or to meet agreed customer requirements. Design of Experiments (DOE) is a tool for the statistical design of experiments and is used for optimization of processes. Systems (processes, products and procedures) are analyzed and optimized by using designed experiments. A significant advantage compared to conventional methods is the efficient perfomance of experiments with minimum effort by determining the most important inputs for optimizing the system.

This means that the failure rate of the lot does not exceed 0.106% / 1000 h (1060 FIT) with a probability of 90%.
expectations concerning the quality and reliability of the products have become higher. 10 6 1 h Manufacturers of semiconductors must therefore assure long operating periods with high reliability but in a short time. Sample stress testing is the most commonly used way of assuring this. The rule of Arrhenius describes this temperature-dependent change of the failure rate.
This means, that the failure rate of the lot does not exceed 0.93% / 1000 h (9300 FIT) with a probability of 60%. This example demonstrates that it is only possible to verify LFR values of 9300 FIT with a confidence level of 60% in a normal qualification tests (50 devices, 2000 h).

Safety
Reliability and Safety
All semiconductor devices have the potential of failing or degrading in ways that could impair the proper operation of safety systems. Well-known circuit techniques are available to protect against and minimize the effects of such occurrences. Examples of these techniques include redundant design, self-checking systems and other failsafe techniques. Fault analysis of systems relating to safety is recommended. Environmental factors should be analyzed in all circuit designs, particularly in safety-related applications. If the system analysis indicates the need for the highest degree of reliability in the component used, it is recommended that TEMIC be contacted for a customized reliability program.
Activation Energy
There are some conditions which need to be fulfilled in order to use Arrhenius method:
D The validity of Arrhenius rule has to be verified. D Failure-specific activation energies must be determined. These conditions may be verified by a series of tests. Today, this procedure is generally accepted and used as a basis for estimating operating life. The values of activation energies can be determined by experiments for different failure mechanisms. Values often used for different device groups are: Opto components 0.7 eV Bipolar ICs 0.7 eV MOS ICs 0.6 eV Transistors 0.7 eV Diodes 0.7 eV By using this method, it is possible to provide longterm predictions for the actual operation of semiconductors even with relatively short test periods.
Toxicity
Although gallium arsenide and gallium aluminium arsenide are both arsenic compounds, under normal use conditions they should be considered relatively benign. Both materials are listed by the 1980 NIOH Toxicology of Materials with LD50 values (Lethal Dosis, probability 50%) comparable to common table salt. Accidental electrical or mechanical damage to the devices should not affect the toxic hazard, so the units can be applied, handled, etc. as any other semiconductor device. Although the chips are small, chemically stable and protected by the device package, conditions that could break these crystalline compounds down into elements or other compounds should be avoided.

If design engineers work with TEMIC optocouplers, they will find some terms and definitions in the data sheets which relate to VDE 0884. These will now be explained: Rated isolation voltages: VIO is the voltage between the input terminals and the output terminals. Note: All voltages are peak voltages!
D VIOWM is a maximum rms. voltage value of the optocouplers assigned by TEMIC. This characterizes the long term withstand capability of its insulation.
D UL/ CSA for America D BSI for Great Britain D SETI, SEMKO, NEMKO, DEMKO for Nordic
countries (Europe)
A lotwise test at VIOTM for 10 seconds and at a voltage level of specified VIOWM/ VIORM (peak) multiplied by 1.5 for 1 minute test criteria is partial discharge less than 5 pico coulomb.
Design example: The line ac voltage is 380 V rms. Your application class is III (DIN/VDE 0110 Part 1/1.89). According to table 5, you must calculate with a maximum line voltage of 600 V and a transient over voltage of 6000 V.

The next voltage step of 380 V is 600 V (VIOWM).The test voltages are 1600 V for the CNY75 for the routine test and 6000 V/ 1300 V for the sample test. The VDE 0884 together with the isolation test voltages also require very high isolation resistance, tested at an ambient temperature of 100C. Apart from these tests for the running production, the VDE Testing and Approvals Institute also investigates the total construction of the optocoupler. The VDE 0884 requires life tests in a very special sequence; 5 lots for 5 different subgroups are tested. The sequence for the main group is as follows:
Appl. Class I
Appl. Class II
Appl. Class IV
Optocouplers approved to the VDE 0884 must consequently pass all tests undertaken. This then enables you to go ahead and start your design.
D Cycle test D Vibration D Shock D Dry heat D Accelerated damp heat D Low temperature storage (normally 55C) D Damp heat steady state D Final measurements.
Finally there is another chapter concerning the safety ratings. This is described in VDE 0884. The maximum safety ratings are the electrical, thermal and mechanical conditions that exceed the absolute maximum ratings for normal operations. The philosophy is that optocouplers must withstand a certain exceeding of the input current, output power dissipation, and temperature for at least a weekend. The test time is actually 72 hours. This is a simulated space of time where failures may occur. It is the designers task to create his design inside of the maximum safety ratings. 46
The behavior of this resistance is tested with special test methods described in the IEC 112. The term is CTI (Comparative Tracking Index).
The VDE 0884 requires a minimum of a CTI of 175. All TEMIC optocouplers have a CTI of 275.

Overview
The information given in this brochure enables the designer to select the right optocoupler for his application. The previous chapters focused only on safety aspects. Apart from this there are other characteristics for the optocoupler. Table 6 enables the designer to select the optocoupler to suit his own needs. This selection should be done using the most important characteristics like CTR (Current Transfer Ratio) and devices with or without base connection. The designer may ask for our data sheets for detailed information.

Appendix
Approvals List
As mentioned before, as long there is no equivalent IEC standard to the VDE 0884, optocouplers must still fulfill all other national safety standards. The copies of documents present all certificates the designer needs for worldwide acceptance of his power supply (see ANT018). All the approvals below are most important. If the designer needs any others, he must be aware that there are many agreements between national institutes, e.g., UL for USA is also accepted by CSA/Canada. TEMIC divides optocouplers into coupling systems. Each coupling system represents the same technology, materials etc. The coupling systems are indicated with capital letters and each coupler is marked with this coupling system indicator letter. The certificates at least also refer to the systems and list all subtypes to the related coupling system. The user is able to find his selected coupler on the certificate.

Optoelectronic Sensors
In many applications, optoelectronic transmitters and receivers are used in pairs and linked together optically. Manufacturers fabricate them in suitable forms. They are available for a wide range of applications as ready-to-use components known as couplers, transmissive sensors (or interrupters), reflex couplers and reflex sensors. Increased automation in industry in particular has heightened the demand for these components and stimulated the development of new types. tivity of the phototransistors are optimized for this wavelength. There are no focusing elements in the sensors described, though lenses are incorporated inside the TCRT5000 in both active parts (emitter and detector). The angular characteristics of both are divergent. This is necessary to realize a position-independent function for easy practical use with different reflecting objects. In the case of TCRT5000, the concentration of the beam pattern to an angle of 16 for the emitter and 30 for the detector, respectively, results in operation on an increased range with optimized resolution. The emitting and acceptance angles in the other reflex sensors are about 45. This is an advantage in short distance operation. The best local resolution is with the reflex sensor TCRT9000. The main difference between the sensor types is the mechanical outline (as shown in the figures, see page before), resulting in various electrical parameters and optical properties. A specialization for certain appli-cations is necessary. Measurements and statements on the data of the reflex sensors are made relative to a reference surface with defined properties and precisely known reflecting properties. This reference medium is the diffusely reflecting Kodak neutral card, also known as grey card (KODAK neutral test card; KODAK publi-cation No. Q-13, CAT 1527654). It is also used here as the reference medium for all details. The reflection factor of the white side of the card is 90% and that of the grey side is 18%. Table 7 shows the measured reflection of a number of materials which are important for the practical use of sensors. The values of the collector current given are relative and correspond to the reflection of the various surfaces with regard to the sensors receiver. They were measured at a transmitter current of IF = 20 mA and at a distance of the maximum light coupling. These values apply exactly to the TCRT9000, but are also valid for the other reflex sensors. The black-on-white paper section stands out in table 7. Although all surfaces appear black to the naked eye, the black surfaces emit quite different reflections at a wavelength of 950 nm. It is particularly important to account for this fact when using reflex sensors. The reflection of the various body surfaces in the infrared range can deviate significantly from that in the visible range.
General Principles
The operating principles of reflex sensors are similar to those of transmissive sensors. Basically, the light emitted by the transmitter is influenced by an object or a medium on its way to the detector. The change in the light signal caused by the interaction with the object then produces a change in the electrical signal in the optoelectronic receiver. The main difference between reflex couplers and transmissive sensors is in the relative position of the transmitter and detector with respect to each other. In the case of the transmissive sensor, the receiver is opposite the transmitter in the same optical axis, giving a direct light coupling between the two. In the case of the reflex sensor, the detector is positioned next to the transmitter, avoiding a direct light coupling. The transmissive sensor is used in most applications for small distances and narrow objects. The reflex sensor, however, is used for a wide range of distances as well as for materials and objects of different shapes. It sizes by virtue of its open design.
In the following chapters, we will deal with reflex sensors placing particular emphasis on their practical use. The components TCRT1000, TCRT5000, TCRT9000 and CNY70 are used as examples. However, references made to these components and their use apply to all sensors of a similar design. The reflex sensors TCRT1000, TCRT5000, TCRT9000 and CNY70 contain IR-emitting diodes as transmitters and phototransistors as receivers. The transmitters emit radiation of a wavelength of 950 nm. The spectral sensi-

Ic/IF is generally known as the coupling factor, k. The following approximate relationship exists between k and OT: k = Ic/ IF = [(S B)/h]
Fr/Fe
F +F
r e
where B is the current amplification, S = Ib/r (phototransistors spectral sensitivity), and h = IF/e (proportionality factor between IF and e of the transmitter). In figures 35 and 36, the curves of the radiant intensity, Ie, of the transmitter to the forward current, IF, and the sensitivity of the detector to the irradiance, Ee, are shown respectively. The gradients of both are equal to unity slope. This represents a measure of the deviation of the curves from the ideal linearity of the parameters. There is a good proportionality between Ie and IF and between Ic and Ee where the curves are parallel to the unity gradient.
Additional parameters of the sensor, such as operating range, the resolution of optical distance of the object, the sensitivity and the switching point in the case of local changes in the reflection, are directly related to this optical transfer function. In the case of reflex sensors with phototransistors as receivers, the ratio Ic/IF (the ratio of collector current Ic to the forward current IF) of the diode emitter is preferred to the optical transfer function. As with optocouplers,
54
Greater proportionality improves the relationship between the coupling factor, k, and the optical transfer function.
Coupling Factor, k
In the case of reflex couplers, the specification of the coupling factor is only useful by a defined reflection and distance. Its value is given as a percentage and refers here to the diffuse reflection (90%) of the white side of Kodak neutral card at the distance of the maximum light coupling. Apart from the transmitter current, IF, and the temperature, the coupling factor also depends on the distance from the reflecting surface and the frequency that is, the speed of reflection change.
For all reflex sensors, the curve of the coupling factor as a function of the transmitter current, IF, has a flat maximum at approximately 30 mA (figure 37). As shown in the figure, the curve of the coupling factor follows that of the current amplification, B, of the phototransistor. The influence of temperature on the coupling factor is relatively small and changes approximately 10% in the range of 10 to +70C (figure 38). This fairly favorable temperature compensation is attributable to the opposing temperature coefficient of the IR diode and the phototransistor. The maximum speed of a reflection change that is detectable by the sensor as a signal is dependent either on the switching times or the threshold frequency, fc, of the component. The threshold frequency and the switching times of the reflex sensors TCRT1000, TCRT5000, TCRT9000 and CNY70 are determined by the slowest component in the system in this case the phototransistor. As usual, the threshold frequency, fc, is defined as the frequency at which the value of the coupling factor has fallen by 3 dB (approximately 30%) of its initial value. As the frequency increases, f > fc, the coupling factor decreases.
55
The data were recorded for the Kodak neutral card with 90% diffuse reflection serving as the reflecting surface, arranged perpendicular to the sensor. The distance, A, was measured from the surface of the reflex sensor. The emitter current, IF, was held constant during the measurement. Therefore, this curve also shows the course of the coupling factor and the optical transfer function over distance. It is called the working diagram of the reflex sensor. The working diagrams of all sensors (figure 40) shows a maximum at a certain distance, Ao. Here the optical coupling is the strongest. For larger distances, the collector current falls in accordance with the square law. When the amplitude, I, has fallen not more than 50% of its maximum value, the operation range is at its optimum.
As a consequence, the reflection change is no longer easily identified. Figure 39 illustrates the change of the cut-off frequency at collector emitter voltages of 5, 10 and 20 V and various load resistances. Higher voltages and low load resistances significantly increase the cut-off frequency. The cut-off frequencies of all TEMIC reflex sensors are high enough (with 30 to 50 kHz) to recognize extremely fast mechanical events. In practice, it is not recommended to use a large load resistance to obtain a large signal, dependent on the speed of the reflection change. Instead, the opposite effect takes place, since the signal amplitude is markedly reduced by the decrease in the cut-off frequency. In practice, the better approach is to use the given data of the application (such as the type of mechanical movement or the number of markings on the reflective medium). With these given data, the maximum speed at which the reflection changes can be determined, thus allowing the maximum frequency occurring to be calculated. The maximum permissible load resistance can then be selected for this frequency from the diagram fc as a function of the load resistance, RL.

The dependence of the phototransistor collector current on the distance, A, of the reflecting medium is shown in figures 40 and 41 for the reflex sensors TCRT1000 and TCRT9000 respectively.

The resolution is the sensors capability to recognize small structures. Figure 42 illustrates the example of the curve of the reflection and current signal for a black line measuring d in width on a light background (e.g., on a sheet of paper). The line has two light/ dark transitions the switching distance Xd/2 is, therefore, effective twice.
The line is clearly recognized as long as the line width is Xd, the collector d Xd. If the width is less than current change, Ic1 Ic2, that is the processable signal, becomes increasingly small and recognition increasingly uncertain. The switching distance or better its inverse can therefore be taken as a resolution of the sensor.
a)
The switching distance, Xd, is predominantly dependent on the mechanical/ optical design of the sensor and the distance to the reflecting surface. It is also influenced by the relative position of the transmitter/ detector axis. Figure 43 shows the dependence of the switching distance, Xd, on the distance A with the sensors placed in two different positions with respect to the separation line of the light/ dark transition. The curves marked position 1 in the diagrams correspond to the first position. The transmitter/ detector axis of the sensor was perpendicular to the separation line of the transition. In the second position (curve 2), the transmitter/ detector axis was parallel to the transition. In the first position (1) all reflex sensors have a better resolution (smaller switching distances) than in position 2. The device showing the best resolution is TCRT9000. It can recognize lines smaller than half a millimeter at a distance below 0.5 mm. It should be remarked that the diagram of TCRT5000 is scaled up to 10 cm. It shows best resolution between 2 and 10 cm. All sensors show the peculiarity that the maximum resolution is not at the point of maximum light coupling, Ao, but at shorter distances.

In many cases, a reflex sensor is used to detect an object that moves at a distance in front of a background, such as a sheet of paper, a band or a plate. In contrast to the examples examined above, the distances of the object surface and background from the sensor vary. Since the radiation received by the sensors detector depends greatly on the distance, the case may arise when the difference between the radiation reflected by the object on the background is completely equalized by the distance despite varying reflectance factors. Even if the sensor has sufficient resolution, it will no longer supply a processable signal due to the low reflection difference. In such applications it is necessary to examine whether there is a sufficient contrast. This is performed with the help of the working diagram of the sensor and the reflectance factors of the materials.

The phototransistor as receiver exhibits a small dark current, ICEO, of a few nA at 25C. However, it is dependent on the applied collector-emitter voltage, VCE, and to a much greater extent on the temperature, T (see figure 44). The crosstalk between the transmitter and detector of the reflex sensor is given with the current, Icx. Icx is the collector current of the photoelectric transistor measured at normal IR transmitter operating conditions without a reflecting medium.
59
It is ensured that no (ambient) light falls onto the photoelectric transistor. This determines how far it is possible to guarantee avoiding a direct optical connection between the transmitter and detector of the sensor. At IF = 20 mA, the current Icx is approximately 50 nA for the TCRT9000 and 15 nA for the CNY70, TCRT1000 and TCRT5000. Icx can also be manifested dynamically. In this case, the origin of the crosstalk is electrical rather than optical. For design and optical reasons, the transmitter and detector are mounted very close to each other. Electrical interference signals can be generated in the detector when the transmitter is operated with a pulsed or modulated signal. The transfer capability of the interference increases strongly with the frequency. Steep pulse edges in the transmitters current are particularly effective here since they possess a large portion of high frequencies. For all TEMIC sensors, the ac crosstalk, Icxac, does not become effective until frequencies of 4 MHz upwards with a transmission of approximately 3 dB between the transmitter and detector. The dark current and the dc- and ac crosstalk form the overall collector fault current, Icf. It must be observed that the dc-crosstalk current, Icxdc, also contains the dark current, ICEO, of the phototransistor. Icf = Icxdc + Icxac This current determines the sensitivity of the reflex sensor. The collector current caused by a reflection change should always be at least twice as high as the fault current so that a processable signal can be reliably identified by the sensor.
Indirect ambient light, that is ambient light falling onto the reflecting objects, mainly reduces the contrast between the object and background or the feature and surroundings. The interference caused by ambient light is predominantly determined by the various reflection properties of the material which in turn are dependent on the wavelength. If the ambient light has wavelengths for which the ratio of the reflection factors of the object and background is the same or similar, its influence on the sensors function is small. Its effect can be ignored for intensities that are not excessively large. On the other hand, the object/ background reflection factors can differ from each other in such a way that, for example, the background reflects the ambient light much more than the object. In this case, the contrast disappears and the object cannot be detected. It is also possible that an uninteresting object or feature is detected by the sensor because it reflects the ambient light much more than its surroundings. In practice, ambient light stems most frequently from filament, fluorescent or energysaving lamps. Table 8 gives a few approximate values of the irradiance of these sources. The values apply to a distance of approximately 50 cm, the spectral range to a distance of 850 to 1050 nm. The values of table 8 are only intended as guidelines for estimating the expected ambient radiation. In practical applications, it is generally rather difficult to determine the ambient light and its effects precisely. Therefore, an attempt to keep its influence to a minimum is made from the outset by using a suitable mechanical design and optical filters. The detectors of the sensors are equipped with optical filters to block such visible light. Furthermore, the mechanical design of these components is such that it is not possible for ambient light to fall directly or sideways onto the detector for object distances of up to 2 mm. If the ambient light source is known and is relatively weak, in most cases it is enough to estimate the expected power of this light on the irradiated area and to consider the result when dimensioning the circuit. AC operation of the reflex sensors offers the most effective protection against ambient light. Pulsed operation is also helpful in some cases. Compared with dc operation, the advantages are greater transmitter power and at the same time significantly greater protection against faults. The only disadvantage is the greater circuit complexity, which is necessary in this case. The circuit in figure 48 is an example of operation with chopped light.
Ambient Light
Ambient light is another feature that can impair the sensitivity and, in some circumstances, the entire function of the reflex sensor. However, this is not an artifact of the component, but an application specific characteristic. The effect of ambient light falling directly on the detector is always very troublesome. Weak steady light reduces the sensors sensitivity. Strong steady light can, depending on the dimensioning (RL, VC), saturate the photoelectric transistor. The sensor is blind in this condition. It can no longer recognize any reflection change. Chopped ambient light gives rise to incorrect signals and feigns non-existent reflection changes.

The optimum transmitter current. IF, for dc operation is between 20 and 40 mA. IF = 20 mA is selected in this case. As shown in figure 37, the coupling factor is at its maximum. In addition, the degradation (i.e., the reduction of the transmitted IR output with aging) is minimum for currents under 40 mA (< 10% for 10000 h) and the self heating is low due to the power loss (approximately 50 mW at 40 mA).

Aluminum disk Markings Motor speed Temperature range Ambient light Power supply Position of the sensor Special attention must also be made to the downstream logic gate. Only components with a low input offset current may be used. In the case of the TTL gate and the LS-TTL gate, the ILH current can be applied to the sensor output in the low condition. At 1.6 mA or 400 A, this is above the signal current of the sensor. A transistor or an operational amplifier should be connected at the output of the sensor when TTL or LS-TTL components are used. A gate from the 74HCTxx family is used. According to the data sheet, its fault current ILH is approximately 1 A. The expected collector current for the minimum and maximum reflection is now estimated. According to the working diagram in figure 40c, it follows that when A = 3 mm Ic = 0.5 Icmax Figure 38 shows a change in the collector current of approximately 10% for 70C. Another 10% is deducted from Ic1 for aging Ic1 = 263 A (20% 263 A) = 210 A The fault current Icf (from crosstalk and collector dark current) increases the signal current and is added to Ic2. Crosstalk with only a few nA for the TCRT9000 is ignored. However, the dark current can increase up to 1 A at a temperature of 70C and should be taken into account. In addition, 1 A, the fault current of the 74HCTxx gate, is also added Ic2 = 30 A The effect of the indirect incident ambient light can most easily be seen by comparing the radiant powers produced by the ambient light and the sensors transmitter on 1 mm2 of the reflecting surface. The ambient light is then taken into account as a percentage in accordance with the ratio of the powers. From table 8: Ee (0.5 m) = 40 W/ cm2 (dc + ac/ 2) Ee (2 m) = Ee(0.5 m) (0.5/ 2)2 (Square of the distance law) Ee (2 m) = 2.5 W/ cm2 fsf = 0.025 mW The radiant power (sf = 0.025 W) therefore falls on 1 mm2. When IF = 20 mA, the sensors transmitter has the radiant intensity: Ie Icmax is determined from the coupling factor, k, for IF = 20 mA. Icmax = k IF At IF = 20 mA, the typical value k = 2.8% is obtained for k from figure 37. However, this value applies to the Kodak neutral card or the reference surface. The coupling factor has a different value for the surfaces used (typewriting paper and blackfiber tip pen). The valid value for these material surfaces can be found in table 7: k1 = 94% k2 = 10% Therefore: k = 2.63% for typing paper and k = 0.28% for black-tip pen (Edding) Ic1 = 0.5 Ic2 = 0.5 k1 k2 IF = 263 A IF = 28 A

The power of 0.025 W produced by the ambient light is therefore negligibly low compared with the corresponding power (approximately 55 W) of the transmitter. The currents Ic1, Ic2 would result in full reflecting surfaces, that is, if the sensors visual field only measures white or black typing paper. However, this is not the case. The reflecting surfaces exist in the form of stripes. The signal can be markedly reduced by the limited resolution of the sensor if the stripes are narrow. The suitable stripe width for a given distance should therefore be selected from figure 43. In this case, the minimum permissible stripe width is approximately 3.8 mm for a distance of 3 mm (position 1, figure 43d). The markings measuring 4 mm in width were expediently selected in this case. For this width, a signal reduction of about 20% can be permitted with relatively great certainty, so that 10% of the difference (Ic1 Ic2) can be subtracted from Ic1 and added to Ic2. Ic1 = 210 mA 18 mA = 192 mA Ic2 = 30 mA + 18 mA = 48 mA
level 2 V and 0.8 V, are now decisive for determining the resistance, Rc.
The suitable load resistance, RE, at the emitter of the photo-transistor is then determined from the low and high levels 0.8 V and 2.0 V for the 74HCTxx gate. RE < 0.8 V/ Ic2 and RE > 2.0 V/ Ic1, i.e., 10.2 kW < RE < 16.7 kW 12 kW is selected for RE The corresponding levels for determining RE must be used if a Schmitt trigger of the 74HCTxx family is employed. The frequency limit of the reflex sensor is then determined with RE = 12 kW and compared with the maximum operating frequency in order to check whether signal damping attributable to the frequency that can occur. Figure 39 shows for Vs = 5 V and RE = 12 kW approximately, for the TCRT9000, fc = 1.5 kHz. Sixteen black/ white stripes appear in front of the sensor in each revolution. This produces a maximum signal frequency of approximately 400 Hz for the maximum speed of 3000 rpm up to 50 rps. This is significantly less than the fc of the sensor, which means there is no risk of signal damping. In the circuit in figure 45, a resistor, Rc, can be used on the collector of the photoelectric transistor instead of RE. In this case, an inverted signal and somewhat modified dimensioning results. The current Ic1 now determines the low signal level and the current Ic2 the high. The voltages (Vs 2 V) and (Vs 0.8 V) and not the high level and low TELEFUNKEN Semiconductors 06.96
At resonance frequencies below 5 kHz, the necessary coils and capacitors for the oscillator become unwieldy and expensive. Therefore, active filters, made up with operational amplifiers or transistors, are more suitable (figures 49 and 50). It is not possible to obtain the quality characteristics of passive filters. In addition to that, the load resistance on the emitter of the photo transistor has remarkably higher values than the dc resistance of a coil. On the other hand, the construction with active filters is more compact and cheaper. The smaller the resonance frequency becomes, the greater the advantages of active filters compared to LC resonant circuits. In some cases, reflex sensors are used to count steps or objects, while at the same time recognition of a change in the direction of rotation (= movement direction) is necessary. The circuit shown in figure 51 is suitable for such applications. The circuit is composed of two independent channels with reflex sensors. The sensor signals are formed via the Schmitt trigger into TTL impulses with step slopes, which are supplied to the pulse inputs of the binary counter 74LS393. The outputs of the 74LS393 are coupled to the reset inputs. This is made in such a way that 63
the first output, whose condition changes from low to high, sets the directly connected counter. In this way, the counter of the other channel is deleted and blocked. The outputs of the active counter can be displaced or connected to more electronics for evaluation. It should be mentioned that such a circuit is only suited to evenly distributed objects and constant movements. If this is not the case, the channels must be close to each other, so that the movement of both sensors are collected successively. The circuit also works perfectly if the last mentioned condition is fulfilled. Figure 52 shows a pulse circuit combining analog with digital components and offering the possibility of temporary storage of the signal delivered by the reflex sensor. A timer IC is used as the pulse generator.
The negative pulse at the timers output triggers the clock input of the 74HCT74 flip-flop and, at the same time, the reflex sensors transmitter via a driver transistor. The flip-flop can be positively triggered, so that the condition of the data input at this point can be received as the edge of the pulse rises. This then remains stored until the next rising edge. The reflex sensor is therefore only active for the duration of the negative pulse and can only detect reflection changes within this time period. During the time of negative impulses, electrical and optical interferences are suppressed. A sample and hold circuit can also be employed instead of the flip-flop. This is switched on via an analog switch at the sensor output as the pulse rises.
