5962-0824201KXA

Overview

The Broadcom Limited 5962-0824201KXA is a high-speed logic output optoisolator featuring a single channel with an open collector, Schottky-clamped phototransistor output. It operates at a data rate of 10 MBd and provides 1500 VDC isolation voltage. The device utilizes an 8-pin DIP gull-wing hermetically sealed package. Key electrical parameters include a common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 1 kV/µs. The input side requires a forward current of 20 mA with a forward voltage of approximately 1.55 V. This component is designed for applications requiring robust signal isolation in high-speed digital environments.

Feature Summary

• Hermetically sealed construction ensures reliability in harsh environments
• Schottky-clamped phototransistor output minimizes storage time for high-speed switching
• High common-mode transient immunity protects against noise interference
• Single-channel design simplifies circuit integration

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems
• Medical equipment signal isolation
• Power supply feedback loops
• Telecommunications interface circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including the suffix KXA to ensure correct package and material specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status as indicated by manufacturer documentation. Check for any specific handling requirements due to the hermetic seal. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB footprint designs for 8-pin DIP gull-wing packages. Validate isolation voltage ratings against system safety standards before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed data transmission up to 10 MBd is required alongside strong galvanic isolation. The open collector output suits interfacing with various logic families. Consider the CMTI rating for noisy industrial environments. Compare power dissipation limits against thermal constraints. Evaluate package size constraints relative to available board space for the 8-pin configuration.

Part Context

This part belongs to the 5962-0 series of military-grade or high-reliability optocouplers manufactured by Broadcom Limited. These devices are characterized by strict performance tolerances and hermetic sealing. The series typically targets aerospace, defense, and critical infrastructure applications where standard commercial components may not suffice. The KXA suffix denotes specific packaging and testing criteria defined by the manufacturer.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other hermetically sealed high-speed optocouplers from the same family with identical pinouts and electrical characteristics. Verify that replacement parts maintain the 10 MBd data rate and 1500 VDC isolation rating. Ensure the open collector output type matches the original design requirements.
