ACPL-W480-060E

Overview

The ACPL-W480-060E is a high-speed logic output optocoupler manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features a single channel with a push-pull, totem pole output configuration housed in a 6-SO stretched package. The device provides an isolation voltage of 5000Vrms and supports data rates up to 5MBd. Key electrical specifications include a common-mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 20kV/µs and a maximum continuous output current of 15mA. The forward voltage is typically 1.8V with a maximum forward current of 20mA.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a GaAsP LED, photodetector, and Schmitt trigger for signal conditioning
• Provides high common-mode transient immunity of 20kV/µs
• Features push-pull output stage eliminating external waveform shaping components

Applications

• High-speed digital communication interfaces
• Industrial control systems requiring galvanic isolation
• Power supply feedback loops

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '060E' against the official Broadcom datasheet to confirm pinout and packaging details. Ensure the procurement source provides valid RoHS compliance documentation. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm that the 6-SO stretched package matches the design footprint requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed data transmission exceeding 1MBd is required alongside robust noise immunity. The integrated Schmitt trigger simplifies circuit design by removing the need for external input conditioning. Consider the 5000Vrms isolation rating for applications demanding strict safety separation between primary and secondary circuits compared to lower-rated alternatives.

Part Context

This device belongs to the ACPL-W480 series of high-speed optocouplers from Broadcom Limited. The series is designed for applications requiring fast signal transfer across isolation barriers. The W480 variant specifically utilizes a push-pull output architecture, distinguishing it from open-collector counterparts in the broader product family.
