ACPL-5600L-300

Overview

The ACPL-5600L-300 is a commercial grade, single-channel high-speed optocoupler featuring hermetic sealing in an 8-pin ceramic DIP package with gold-plated leads. It operates on a 3.3V supply and provides 1500VDC isolation. Key electrical parameters include a data rate of 10 MBd, a current transfer ratio of 100%, and a forward current of 20 mA. The device exhibits a propagation delay (tpLH) characteristic of its speed class, with a maximum power dissipation of 200 mW and an operating temperature range of -55°C to 125°C.

Feature Summary

• Hermetically sealed construction in a ceramic DIP package for enhanced reliability
• High-speed operation supporting 10 MBd data rates
• Schottky-clamped open collector output configuration
• Wide operating temperature range suitable for industrial environments

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems
• Telecommunications signal isolation
• Power supply feedback loops
• Microprocessor system interfacing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '300' corresponds to the required tape-and-reel or bulk packaging format as defined by Broadcom Limited. Confirm that the hermetic ceramic DIP package aligns with your assembly capabilities. Ensure the 3.3V logic compatibility matches your system voltage levels before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed digital isolation is required alongside robust environmental protection. The single-channel design simplifies board layout compared to dual-channel alternatives. Consider the thermal management requirements given the 200 mW power dissipation limit and the wide temperature range specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Broadcom ACPL-5 Series of high-speed optocouplers. It shares the series' core technology but differs from variants like the ACPL-5631L by offering a single channel instead of two. The hermetic sealing distinguishes it from standard plastic-packaged optocouplers, targeting applications requiring long-term stability.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the single-channel, 10 MBd, hermetic DIP-8 specification. Verify pinout compatibility with existing footprints. Cross-reference with other ACPL-5 series parts only if channel count and isolation voltage requirements are identical.
