ACPL-M50L, ACPL-054L, ACPL-W50L, ACPL-K54L
Low Power, 1 MBd Digital Optocoupler
Data Sheet
Description
The Broadcom® ACPL-M50L (single-channel in SO-5 footprint), ACPL-054L (dual-channel in SO-8 footprint), ACPL-W50L (single-channel in stretched SO-6 footprint), and ACPL-K54L (dual-channel in stretched SO-8 footprint) are low power, low-input current, 1-MBd digital optocouplers.
These digital optocouplers use an insulating layer between the light-emitting diode and an integrated photon detector to provide electrical insulation between input and output. Separate connections for the photodiode bias and output transistor collector increase the speed up to a hundred times over that of a conventional photo-transistor coupler by reducing the base-collector capacitance.
