5962-9314001EXA

Overview

The Broadcom Limited 5962-9314001EXA is a hermetic optoisolator featuring a Power MOSFET output. It provides electrical isolation with a voltage rating of 1500VDC across a single channel. The device utilizes an 8-DIP Gull Wing package for secure mounting. Key electrical specifications include a maximum output current capability of 1.6A. This component is designed for applications requiring robust galvanic isolation and high reliability in harsh environments.

Feature Summary

• Hermetic sealing ensures protection against environmental contaminants
• Power MOSFET output stage supports high current switching
• Single-channel configuration simplifies circuit design
• High voltage isolation barrier enhances system safety

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring isolated power switching
• Military and aerospace electronic assemblies
• Medical equipment with strict isolation requirements
• High-reliability communication interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix EXA confirms the hermetic package type and gull wing lead form. Ensure compliance with relevant military or industrial standards if required by the end application. Confirm that the manufacturer documentation explicitly lists this part number as a qualified special purpose component rather than a commercial grade alternative.

Selection Notes

Select this component when hermetic sealing is mandatory for long-term reliability in extreme conditions. The Power MOSFET output is suitable for driving loads directly without additional amplification stages. Consider the 8-DIP footprint constraints during PCB layout to ensure proper clearance for the high isolation voltage rating.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Broadcom Limited family of special purpose isolators. It is distinct from standard commercial optocouplers due to its hermetic construction. The 5962 prefix indicates it is a military-grade or special purpose variant, often subject to stricter qualification processes compared to general-purpose components.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the hermetic package style and MOSFET output topology. Verify that any replacement maintains the 1500VDC isolation rating and 1.6A output current capacity. Cross-reference with official Broadcom limited lists for approved equivalents.
