Dispositifs à semiconducteurs - Partie 17: Coupleur magnétique et capacitif pour l’isolation principale et renforcée (IEC 60747-17:2020)

L'IEC 60747-17:2020 spécifie la terminologie, les valeurs assignées essentielles, les caractéristiques, l’essai de sécurité et les méthodes de mesure des coupleurs magnétiques et des coupleurs capacitifs.
Elle spécifie les principes et exigences de l’isolation et les caractéristiques d’isolement des coupleurs magnétiques et capacitifs pour l’isolation principale et l’isolation renforcée.
Cette première édition annule et remplace l’IEC PAS 60747-17:2011. Cette édition constitue une révision technique.
Cette édition inclut les modifications techniques majeures suivantes par rapport à l’IEC PAS 60747‑17:2011:
a) introduction des facteurs de sécurité de durée de vie pour la prise en considération de la durée de vie améliorée, conformément aux mécanismes de vieillissement du dioxyde de silicium (TDDB) largement reconnus, et couches d’isolement en polymère à couches minces;
b) prise en considération de l’alinéa et de la durée de vie statistique de l’"essai de fin de vie" considérablement améliorée par l’ajout d’une description détaillée du processus, des facteurs de sécurité, des méthodes de génération de points de données et des interpolations de la durée de vie respective, ainsi que par la spécification de la quantité minimale d'échantillons exigés;
c) introduction du concept de certification par similarité, comprenant l’Annexe A, qui donne des recommandations relatives aux considérations de qualification et au processus de certification exigé;
d) forme d'impulsion alternative admise pour l’essai d’impulsion de choc afin d'éviter les problèmes de disponibilité de l’appareil d’essai aux ondes de choc;
e) plusieurs améliorations tout au long de la norme: amélioration des définitions, par exemple des types de coupleurs; introduction de la valeur assignée de l’impulsion de choc VIMP, utilisation d’une température de transition vitreuse, redéfinition du préconditionnement pour une utilisation améliorée et une meilleure compatibilité avec la conception et les fonctionnalités actuelles des coupleurs, les composants moulés disponibles, etc.

SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES –

Part 17: Magnetic and capacitive coupler
for basic and reinforced insulation

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC
Publication(s)"). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60747-17 has been prepared by subcommittee SC 47E: Discrete
semiconductor devices, of IEC technical committee TC 47: Semiconductor devices.
This first edition cancels and replaces IEC PAS 60747-17:2011. This edition constitutes a
technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to
IEC PAS 60747-17:2011:
a) introduced lifetime safety factors for improved life time consideration, to comply with
widely recognized aging mechanisms of silicone dioxide (TDDB) and thin film polymer
isolation layers;
b) significantly improved "end of life testing" paragraph and statistical life time consideration
by adding detailed description on process, safety factors, methods of generating data
points and respective lifetime interpolations as well as being specific on minimum amount
of samples required;

---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
SIST EN IEC 60747-17:2021
– 6 – IEC 60747-17:2020 © IEC 2020
c) introduced concept of certification by similarity, including Annex A, giving guidance on
qualification considerations and required certification process;
d) alternative pulse shape allowed for surge pulse testing, to avoid issues due to surge tester
availability;
e) various improvements throughout the standard: definitions, for example type of coupler
have been improved, introduction of surge impulse V rating, usage of glass transition
IMP
temperature, pre-conditioning have been redefined for improved usability and better
compatibility with today’s design and functionality of couplers, available mold compounds,
etc.
The text of this International Standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
47E/711/FDIS 47E/715/RVD

Full information on the voting for the approval of this International Standard can be found in
the report on voting indicated in the above table.
This document has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
A list of all parts in the IEC 60747 series, published under the general title Semiconductor
devices, can be found on the IEC website.
The committee has decided that the contents of this document will remain unchanged until the
stability date indicated on the IEC website under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data related to
the specific document. At this date, the document will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
