High CMR, High Speed TTL Compatible Optocouplers
Data Sheet
Description
The 6N137, HCPL-26XX/06XX/4661, HCNW137/26X1
are optically coupled gates that combine a GaAsP light
emitting diode and an integrated high gain photo
detector. An enable input allows the detector to be
strobed. The output of the detector IC is an open
collector Schottky-clamped transistor. The internal
shield provides a guaranteed common mode transient
immunity specification up to 15,000 V/µs at Vcm=1000V.
This unique design provides maximum ac and dc circuit
isolation while achieving TTL compatibility. The
optocoupler ac and dc operational parameters are
guaranteed from -40° C to +85° C allowing troublefree
system performance.

CAUTION: It is advised that normal static precautions be taken in handling and assembly of this
component to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be induced by ESD.
The 6N137, HCPL-26XX, HCPL-
06XX, HCPL-4661, HCNW137,
and HCNW26X1 are suitable for
high speed logic interfacing,
input/output buffering, as line
receivers in environments that
conventional line receivers
cannot tolerate and are recom-
mended for use in extremely high
ground or induced noise
environments.
