Broadcom recommends a PCB layout with a solid ground plane, minimal track length, and a 50-ohm transmission line impedance to ensure optimal performance and minimize signal distortion.
To ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments, it is recommended to follow proper thermal management practices, such as providing adequate heat sinking, using thermal interface materials, and keeping the device within its specified operating temperature range.
The maximum allowable voltage on the VCC pin is 5.5V, exceeding which may cause permanent damage to the device.
No, the ACPL-021L-560E is designed for isolated applications only. Using it in a non-isolated application may compromise the safety and reliability of the system.
To troubleshoot issues with the ACPL-021L-560E, start by verifying the power supply voltage, checking for proper PCB layout and routing, and ensuring that the input signals are within the specified range. If the issue persists, consult the datasheet and application notes or contact Broadcom support for further assistance.
