ACPL-563KL-100

Overview

The ACPL-563KL-100 is a high-speed, dual-channel optocoupler manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features a hermetic DIP-8 package designed for through-hole mounting. The device supports a data rate of 10 Mb/s with a common mode transient immunity of 1 kV/µs. Electrical specifications include a forward current of 20 mA, a forward voltage of 1.5 V, and an output current per channel of 25 mA. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +100°C and dissipates up to 200 mW. The isolation voltage is rated at 1500 Vdc.

Feature Summary

• Hermetically sealed Class K construction ensures high reliability in harsh environments.
• Dual-channel design provides independent signal isolation within a single package.
• Schottky-clamped open collector outputs enhance switching speed and noise immunity.
• High common mode transient immunity protects against electrical noise interference.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust signal isolation
• Medical equipment demanding high safety standards
• Power supply circuits for feedback isolation
• Communication interfaces needing high-speed data transfer

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'KL' and '-100' to confirm the hermetic package type and lead finish. Ensure the procurement order matches the exact part number to avoid confusion with non-hermetic variants. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official documentation before finalizing orders. Cross-reference the manufacturer's latest datasheet for any potential form-fit-function updates or obsolescence notices prior to purchasing.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high reliability and hermetic sealing are critical for the application environment. The dual-channel configuration is suitable for applications requiring isolated bidirectional communication or parallel signal transmission. Consider the 10 Mb/s data rate and 1500 Vdc isolation voltage as key constraints. Evaluate the thermal dissipation requirements against the 200 mW limit during system design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the ACPL-5 series from Broadcom Limited, specifically designed for high-reliability applications. The Class K designation indicates a hermetic package, distinguishing it from standard plastic-packaged optocouplers. This series is engineered for environments where long-term stability and resistance to environmental factors are paramount.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the hermetic DIP-8 package and Class K reliability rating. Verify that alternative parts offer equivalent 10 Mb/s data rates and 1500 Vdc isolation. Check for compatible output types, such as Schottky-clamped open collectors, to ensure circuit compatibility without redesign.
