Optocoupler, Phototransistor Output, High Reliability, 5300 VRMS

DESCRIPTION

The SFH615A feature a variety of transfer ratios, low

coupling capacitance and high isolation voltage. These

couplers have a GaAs infrared diode emitter, which is

optically coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor

detector, and is incorporated in a plastic DIP-4 package.

The coupling devices are designed for signal transmission

between two electrically separated circuits.

The couplers are end-stackable with 2.54 mm lead spacing.

Creepage and clearance distances of > 8 mm are achieved

with option 6. This version complies with IEC 60950

(DIN VDE 0805) for reinforced insulation up to an operation

voltage of 400 VRMS or DC. Specifications subject to

change.

FEATURES

• Excellent CTR linearity depending on forward

current

• Isolation test voltage, 5300 VRMS

• Fast switching times

• Low CTR degradation

Notes

• Stresses in excess of the absolute maximum ratings can cause permanent damage to the device. Functional operation of the device is not

implied at these or any other conditions in excess of those given in the operational sections of this document. Exposure to absolute

maximum ratings for extended periods of the time can adversely affect reliability.

(1) Refer to reflow profile for soldering conditions for surface mounted devices (SMD). Refer to wave profile for soldering conditions for through

hole devices (DIP).

Note

• Minimum and maximum values are testing requirements. Typical values are characteristics of the device and are the result of engineering

evaluation. Typical values are for information only and are not part of the testing requirements.
