DESCRIPTION
The SFH615XXX features a large assortment of cur-
rent transfer ratio, low coupling capacitance and high
isolation voltage. These couplers have a GaAs infra-
red emitting diode emitter, which is optically coupled
to a silicon planar phototransistor detector, and is
incorporated in a plastic DIP-4 package.
The coupling devices are designed for signal trans-
mission between two electrically separated circuits.
The couplers are end-stackable with 2.54 mm lead
spacing.
Creepage and clearance distances of >8 mm are
achieved with option 6. This version complies with IEC
950 (DIN VDE 0805) for reinforced insulation up to an
operation voltage of 400 V
RMS
or DC.
