Avago Technologies (Broadcom) ACPL-796J-560E

The Avago Technologies (Broadcom) ACPL-796J-560E is a precision isolation amplifier engineered for current and voltage sensing in advanced electronic systems. Featuring a 1-bit, second-order sigma-delta modulator, it delivers 16-bit resolution with no missing codes and a minimum signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 74 dB, ensuring highly accurate measurements. Its wide external clock input range of 5 MHz to 20 MHz, combined with an internal reference and low offset drift of 3.5 μV/°C, makes it well-suited for applications requiring stability and precision over extended use. Additionally, its ±200 mV linear range with a single 5 V supply and ±1% maximum gain error guarantees reliable operation in power-sensitive systems.

Designed to meet rigorous industrial standards, the ACPL-796J-560E operates in harsh environments with a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and features superior immunity to common-mode transients (25 kV/μs). Its compliance with safety certifications, including UL 1577 and IEC 60747-5-5, ensures dependable insulation in high-voltage applications. The compact SO-16 package is optimized for space-constrained designs, making it ideal for motor phase sensing, power inverters, industrial process control, and general-purpose current and voltage sensing. For designers looking to replace traditional current transducers, this component serves as an efficient and reliable solution for modern electronics.
