Overview: HCPL-2730/0730/2731/0731
Dual-Channel Low Input Current, High-Gain Optocouplers Data Sheet Overview
These dual-channel optocouplers contain a separated pair of GaAsP light-emitting diodes optically coupled to a pair of integrated high-gain photodetectors. They provide extremely high current transfer ratio and excellent input-output common mode transient immunity. A separate pin for the photodiodes and first gain stages (VCC) permits lower output saturation voltage and higher speed operation than possible with conventional photo-darlington type optocouplers. In addition, VCC may be as low as 1.6V without adversely affecting the parametric performance.
These dual-channel optocouplers are available in an 8-pin DIP and in an industry standard SO-8 package. The following is a cross reference table listing the 8-pin DIP part number and the electrically equivalent SOIC-8 part number. 8-Pin DIP HCPL-2730 HCPL-2731 SO-8 HCPL-0730 HCPL-0731 The SO-8 does not require “through holes” in a PCB. This package occupies approxmately one-third the footprint area of the standard dual-inline package. The lead profile is designed to be compatible with standard surface mount processes.
CAUTION! Take normal static precautions in handling and assembly of this component to prevent damage, degradation, or both that may be induced by ESD. The components featured in this data sheet are not to be used in military or aerospace applications or environments.
