ISO7740: When VCCO=5V, Enable pin is high level=3.3V, is the output normal?

Part Number: ISO7740

Hi Team,

          My customer plan to use ISO7740 enable pin. VCCI = 3.3V, VCCO=5V. 

We have questions, when giving 3.3V to enable pin,  is the output normal? 

Thanks!

  • Hi Eggsy,

    Thank you for posting to E2E! HIGH level inputs to the ISO77xx are defined as a ratio of > 0.7 x VCCO. For VCCO = 5V, 3.3V is just below this threshold (3.5V) so not guaranteed for normal output. However, since the Enable pin is active by default, the ISO7740 output will be normal whether EN = VCCO or is left floating.

    Is our customer able to leave the Enable pin floating instead of connecting 3.3V?

    Thank you for your time,

    Manuel Chavez


    PSA: Post edited to clarify that the ISO77xx Enable pins are active by default

  • Hi Manuel,

    Thanks for your help!

    Customer need use EN pin, they will PD EN pin by default. When MCU ready, they will let EN pin go high.

     

  • Hi Eggsy,

    Is there a way our customer can turn the pin off instead of sending the 3.3V "HIGH" signal? A 5V HIGH signal is preferred, but an internal pull-up resistor can connect enable to VCCO if the pin is disconnected or high impedence.


    Please let me know,
