CNY17-4-360E

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The CNY17-4-360E is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features an NPN phototransistor with a base lead, housed in a 6-pin SMD/SMT gull-wing package (PDIP-6 form factor). The device provides 5000 Vrms isolation voltage between input and output. Key electrical parameters include a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 70 V, a maximum forward current of 60 mA, and a forward voltage of 1.7 V. The current transfer ratio ranges from 100% to 200%, with rise and fall times of 10 µs. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +100°C.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '360E' confirms the tape-and-reel packaging format and the inclusion of the phototransistor base terminal. Confirm RoHS compliance status and ensure the supplier documentation matches the Broadcom Limited manufacturer designation. Cross-reference the ordering code against official datasheets to validate pinout and thermal specifications before procurement.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a base-connected phototransistor is required to improve switching characteristics compared to standard variants. Ensure the application demands 5000 Vrms isolation and fits within the 70 V collector-emitter voltage limit. Verify that the SMD gull-wing footprint aligns with the PCB layout requirements and that the operating temperature range meets environmental conditions.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the CNY17 series of transistor output optocouplers. The series is widely used for general-purpose isolation tasks. The '-4-' designation indicates the inclusion of the base lead, while '-360E' specifies the reel packaging configuration. It is a successor or variant within the broader family originally developed by Avago Technologies.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other CNY17-4 variants such as CNY17-4-300E or CNY17-4-W60E, which share identical electrical characteristics but differ in packaging quantity or lead style. Generic replacements must match the 6-pin DIP/SMD outline and NPN phototransistor output type.
