Optocoupler, phototransistor output, low input current

The SFH618A (DIP) and SFH6186 (SMD) feature a high current transfer ratio, low coupling capacitance and high isolation voltage. These couplers have a GaAs infrared diode emitter, which is optically coupled to silicon planar phototransistor detector, and is incorporated in a plastic DIP-4 or SMD package. The coupling devices are designed for signal transmission between two electrically separated circuits. The couplers are end-stackable with 2.54 mm lead spacing. Creepage and clearance distances of > 8 mm achieved with option 6.
