DESCRIPTION

The SFH615A feature a variety of transfer ratios, low coupling capacitance and high isolation voltage. These couplers have a GaAs infrared diode emitter, which is optically coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor detector, and is incorporated in a plastic DIP-4 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 are achieved with option 6. This version complies with IEC 60950 (DIN VDE 0805) for reinforced insulation up to an operation voltage of 400 VRMS or DC. Specifications subject to change.
