ACPL-C61L-500E

Overview

The ACPL-C61L-500E is a high-speed optocoupler from the Broadcom ACPL series, housed in an 8-pin SOIC-Wide package. It features a single channel with a data rate of 10 Mb/s and a common-mode transient immunity of 20 kV/µs. The device provides 5000 Vrms isolation voltage and utilizes a photo IC output type. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 5 mA, forward voltage of 1.5 V, and reverse voltage of 5 V. Rise and fall times are both 12 ns, with an output current capacity of 10 mA and power dissipation of 34 mW. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to +105°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides high common-mode transient immunity for reliable signal transmission in noisy environments
• Features ultra-low power consumption suitable for energy-efficient designs
• Delivers high-speed digital isolation with tri-state logic output capability

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems requiring galvanic isolation
• Power supply feedback loops for voltage regulation
• Data communication interfaces needing high-speed signal transfer

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '500E' to ensure compliance with RoHS directives and lead-free manufacturing standards. Confirm the SOIC-Wide-8 package dimensions match your PCB footprint requirements. Check for CSA regulatory certificates if safety isolation is mandated for your application design. Ensure the operating temperature range meets your environmental specifications.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high isolation voltage and fast switching speeds are required. The tri-state output allows for bus sharing applications. Consider the 5 mA forward current requirement for driver compatibility. Evaluate the 5000 Vrms isolation rating against system safety standards. Compare rise and fall times with other optocouplers for timing-sensitive circuits.
