Hi,
My H dridge driver HIP4081A is driving an inductive load using four NMOSFETS. The H bridge is getting its timing from microprocessor. The micro. is generating 100KHz PWM of duty cycle range between 10 o
75%.The developed sine wave across the inductive load is peak to peak 200 volts and 100KHz. The problem is that lots of ground nosie is coming and reseting my micro. The digital and analog grounds are tied together at the lowest impedance point on the printed circuit board that the power supply ground.
I am thinking that there are two options
- isolate the driving inputs of the H bridge from the micro. using some optical coupling but I do not know my data rate. The microp is generating 100KHz of square wave and does the PWM of different duty cycle. How can I determine the rate and choose the optocoupler or some other options?
- Isolate the analog ground and didgtal ground using an opto coupler. Is it possible? If yes than what direction should I take?
