6N138 - High Gain Optocouplers

Download the 6N138 datasheet PDF. This datasheet also covers the 6N139 variant, as both devices belong to the same high gain optocouplers family and are provided as variant models within a single manufacturer datasheet.

General Description

These high gain series couplers use a Light Emitting Diode and an integrated high gain photodetec­tor to provide extremely high current transfer ratio between input and output.

Separate pins for the photodiode and output stage result in TTL compatible saturation voltages and high speed operation.

Key Features

  • High current transfer ratio.
  • 2000% typical (4500 % typical for HCNW139/138).

  • TTL compatible output.
  • 0.1 V VOL typical.
  • Performance guaranteed over temperature 0°C to 70°C.
  • Base access allows gain bandwidth adjustment.
  • High output current.
  • 60 mA.
  • Safetyapproval - ULrecognized.
  • 3750Vrmsfor1 minuteand5000V rms.
  • for 1 minute per UL 1577 - CSA.

HCPL-0700, HCPL-0701, HCNW138, HCNW139, 6N139, 6N138, Low Input Current, High Gain Optocouplers Data Sheet Lead (Pb) Free RoHS 6 fully compliant RoHS 6 fully compliant options available; -xxxE denotes a lead-free product Description These high gain series couplers use a Light Emitting Diode and an integrated high gain photodetec­tor to provide extremely high current transfer ratio between input and output. Separate pins for the photodiode and output stage result in TTL compatible saturation voltages and high speed operation. Where desired the VCC and VO terminals may be tied together to achieve conven­tional photodarlington operation. A base access terminal allows a gain bandwidth adjustment to be made.
