GlobalOptoisolator™
6-Pin DIP Optoisolators
Transistor Output
The MCT and MCT2E devices consist of a gallium arsenide infrared emitting
diode optically coupled to a monolithic silicon phototransistor detector.
Applications
• General Purpose Switching Circuits
• Interfacing and coupling systems of different potentials and impedances
• I/O Interfacing
• Solid State Relays
• Monitor and Detection Circuits
• To order devices that are tested and marked per VDE 0884 requirements, the
suffix ”V” must be included at end of part number. VDE 0884 is a test option.
