EVBD-ACSL-7210 PROFIBUS / SPI Evaluation Board
ACSL-7210 Dual-Channel (Bidirectional) 25 MBd
CMOS Buered Input Digital Optocoupler
User Guide
Product Description
Avago’s ACSL-7210 optocoupler utilizes the latest CMOS
IC technology to achieve outstanding speed and low
power performance of minimum 25 MBd data rate.
Available in SO-8 package, the basic building blocks of
each channel in ACSL-7210 are a CMOS LED driver IC, a
high speed LED and a CMOS detector IC. A CMOS logic
input signal controls the LED driver IC, which supplies current to the LED. The detector IC incorporates an integrated
photodiode, a high speed trans-impedance amplier, and
a voltage comparator with an output driver.

About the Evaluation Board
The ACSL-7210 PROFIBUS / SPI evaluation board is congurable for either PROFIBUS (RS-485) or SPI communication. The board will accept both 3.3V and 5V power supplies.
When congured for PROFIBUS communication, the
ACSL-7210 bi-directional optocoupler provides isolation
for both the transmitting and receiving channels. Isolation
for the Tx Enable signal is provided by the ACPL-M61L, ultra low power 10MBd CMOS digital optocoupler. A standard RS-485 transceiver (max. data rate of 20Mbps) is included on the board.
For SPI interface, the ACSL-7210 is used for serial data in/
out isolation. Isolation for the clock signal is provided by
ACPL-077L, low power 25MBd CMOS digital optocoupler.
Figures 1 and 2 shows the jumper settings for PROFIBUS
and SPI operation. Figure 3 shows the schematic diagram
of the evaluation board.
