HCNW138-000E

These high gain series couplers use a Light Emitting Diode and an integrated high gain photodetector to provide extremely high current transfer ratio between input and output. Separate pins for the photodiode and output stage result in TTL compatible saturation voltages and high speed operation. Where desired the VCC and VO terminals may be tied together to achieve conventional photodarlington operation. A base access terminal allows a gain bandwidth adjustment to be made The are for use in CMOS, LSTTL or other low power applications. A 400% minimum current transfer ratio is guaranteed over 0to 70°C operating range for only 0.5 mA of LED current.
