Description
Features
• 15 kV/µs minimum common mode transient
immunity at VCM = 1500 V (4503/0453)
• High speed: 1 Mb/s
• TTL compatible
• Available in 8-Pin DIP, SO-8, widebody packages
• Open collector output
• Guaranteed performance from temperature:
0°C to70°C
• Safety approval
These diode-transistor optocouplers use an insulating
layer between a LED and an integrated photodetector to
provide electrical insulation between input and output.
Separate connections for the photodiode bias and out-
put-transistor collector increase the speed up to a hun-
dred times that of a conventional phototransistor coupler
by reducing the base-collector capacitance.
These single channel optocouplers are available in
8-Pin DIP, SO-8 and Widebody package configurations.
UL Recognized – 3750 Vrms for 1 minute (5000 Vrms
for 1 minute for HCNW and Option 020 devices)
per UL1577
The 6N135, HCPL-0500, and HCNW135 are for use in TTL/
CMOS, TTL/LSTTL or wide bandwidth analog applications.
Current transfer ratio (CTR) for these devices is 7% mini-
mum at IF = 16mA.
CSA Approved
IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-2 Approved
– VIORM = 630 V peak for HCPL-4503#060
– VIORM = 1414 V peak for HCNW devices
The 6N136, HCPL-2502, HCPL-0501, and HCNW136 are
designed for high speed TTL/TTL applications. A standard
16 mA TTL sink current through the input LED will pro-
vide enough output current for 1 TTL load and a 5.6 kΩ
pull-up resistor. CTR for these devices is 19% minimum at
IF=16mA.
