Description
The FOD2712 Optically Isolated Amplifier consists of the
popular RC431A precision programmable shunt refer-
ence and an optocoupler. The optocoupler is a gallium
arsenide (GaAs) light emitting diode optically coupled to
a silicon phototransistor. The reference voltage toler-
ance is 1%. The current transfer ratio (CTR) ranges from
100% to 200%.
It is primarily intended for use as the error amplifier/
reference voltage/optocoupler function in isolated AC to
DC power supplies and dc/dc converters.
When using the FOD2712, power supply designers can
reduce the component count and save space in tightly
packaged designs. The tight tolerance reference elimi-
nates the need for adjustments in many applications.
The device comes in a compact 8-pin small outline
package.

Absolute Maximum Ratings
(T
A
= 25°C unless otherwise specified)
Stresses exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may damage the device. The device may not function or be
operable above the recommended operating conditions and stressing the parts to these levels is not recommended.
In addition, extended exposure to stresses above the recommended operating conditions may affect device reliability.
The absolute maximum ratings are stress ratings only.

Notes:
1. Device is considered as a two terminal device: Pins 1, 2, 3 and 4 are shorted together and Pins 5, 6, 7 and 8 are
shorted together.
2. Common mode transient immunity at output high is the maximum tolerable (positive) dVcm/dt on the leading edge
of the common mode impulse signal, Vcm, to assure that the output will remain high. Common mode transient
immunity at output low is the maximum tolerable (negative) dVcm/dt on the trailing edge of the common pulse
signal,Vcm, to assure that the output will remain low.
