5962-0824201HXA

Overview

The Broadcom Limited 5962-0824201HXA is a high-speed optocoupler featuring a single channel with an open collector output. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C and provides 1500 Vrms isolation voltage. The device supports data rates up to 10 MBd, with typical rise and fall times of 90 ns and 40 ns respectively. It accepts a forward current of 20 mA at a forward voltage of 1.5 V, delivering an output current of 25 mA with a power dissipation of 200 mW. The component is housed in a hermetically sealed 8-SMD Gull Wing package.

Feature Summary

• Hermetically sealed construction for enhanced environmental reliability
• High-speed signal transmission capability supporting 10 MBd data rates
• Robust electrical isolation rated at 1500 Vrms between input and output circuits

Applications

• Industrial communication interfaces requiring galvanic isolation
• Microcontroller-based systems needing high-speed digital signal transfer
• Medical equipment demanding strict safety isolation standards

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix HXA against official datasheets to confirm pinout and performance specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprints for the 8-SMD Gull Wing package. Confirm that the hermetic seal integrity meets project requirements for harsh environments. Cross-reference manufacturer documentation for any recent design changes or obsolescence notices before finalizing procurement plans.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed digital isolation is required in space-constrained applications. The open collector output necessitates appropriate external pull-up resistors for proper logic level translation. Consider the thermal management capabilities given the 200 mW power dissipation rating. Evaluate the operating temperature range to ensure suitability for extreme industrial or automotive conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 5962 series of military-grade and high-reliability optocouplers manufactured by Broadcom Limited. The series is characterized by stringent quality controls and long-term availability commitments. These components are designed for critical applications where standard commercial parts may not meet reliability or performance standards.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other 5962-series variants from Broadcom such as 5962-8767901EA for dual-channel needs or 5962-9085501HPC for similar single-channel performance. Verify pin compatibility and electrical parameters before substitution.
