Description
Features
The HCPL-261A family of optically coupled gates shown
on this data sheet provide all the benefits of the in-
dustry standard 6N137 family with the added benefit
of HCMOS compatible input current. This allows direct
interface to all common circuit topologies without
additional LED buffer or drive components. The Al-
GaAs LED used allows lower drive currents and reduc-
• HCMOS/LSTTL/TTL performance compatible
• 1000 V/µs minimum Common Mode Rejection (CMR)
at VCM = 50 V (HCPL-261A family) and 15 kV/µs
minimum CMR at VCM = 1000 V (HCPL-261N family)
• High speed: 10 MBd typical
• AC and DC performance specified over industrial
es degradation by using the latest LED technolo gy. On
temperature range -40°C to +85°C
the single channel parts, an enable output allows the de-
tector to be strobed. The output of the detector IC is an
open collector schottky-clamped transistor. The internal
shield provides a minimum common mode transient im-
munity of 1000 V/µs for the HCPL-261A family and 15000
V/µs for the HCPL-261N family.
• Available in 8 pin DIP, SOIC-8 packages
• Safety approval:
– UL recognized per UL1577 3750 Vrms for 1 minute
and 5000 Vrms for 1 minute (Option 020)
