APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
An alternative method of generating the SYNC pulse is
shown in Figure 8. This circuit produces square SYNC
pulses with amplitude dependent on the logic supply
voltage. The SYNC pulse width can be adjusted with R1
and C1 without affecting the pulse amplitude.
For nonisolated applications, the SYNC input can be driven
directly by a bipolar square pulse. To reduce the propa-
gation delay, make the positive and negative magnitude
of the square wave much greater than the ±1.4V SYNC
threshold.
