APC-1017

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The APC-1017 is a single-channel phototransistor optocoupler manufactured by American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation. It features a DC input driving an internal infrared LED, coupled to a phototransistor output for signal isolation. The device provides a high isolation voltage of 5000Vrms between input and output circuits. Key electrical parameters include a forward current rating of 60 mA, a current transfer ratio ranging from 80% to 160%, and a rise time specification between 6 μs and 18 μs. It is housed in a compact 4-pin LSOP surface-mount package.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and packaging type (Cut Tape or Reel) against the manufacturer's latest documentation before procurement. Confirm RoHS compliance status and lead times directly with authorized distributors. Ensure the selected variant matches the required current transfer ratio and isolation voltage specifications for the target application environment.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel transistor output optocoupler is required for moderate-speed signal isolation. Consider the 5000Vrms isolation rating and the 80-160% current transfer ratio range to ensure adequate noise immunity and switching performance. Verify that the 60 mA forward current capability aligns with the driving circuit's output limits and that the LSOP package fits the available PCB footprint constraints.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

The APC-1017 belongs to the APC series of phototransistor optocouplers from American Bright Optoelectronics Corporation. This series focuses on providing reliable electrical isolation in compact surface-mount packages. The APC-1017 specifically utilizes a standard phototransistor output architecture, distinguishing it from photovoltaic or logic-output variants within the broader product line.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Cross-reference with other single-channel phototransistor optocouplers offering similar 5000Vrms isolation and LSOP-4 packaging. Verify pinout compatibility and current transfer ratio ranges to ensure functional equivalence without redesigning the surrounding circuitry.
