Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '500E' corresponds to the tape-and-reel packaging configuration as defined in official Broadcom documentation. Confirm that the component meets required safety certifications such as UL or CSA if applicable to the end application. Ensure the selected variant matches the intended surface mount assembly process requirements.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface mount solution is required for isolated signal transmission. The CNY17-4-500E offers a balance of moderate speed and high isolation voltage suitable for general-purpose digital interfacing. Consider the 70 V collector-emitter rating and 150 mA output current capability against load requirements. Verify compatibility with standard DIP-6 footprint designs adapted for SMT assembly.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the CNY17 series of transistor output optocouplers produced by Broadcom Limited. The series is widely recognized for providing reliable electrical isolation in compact packages. Variants within the series differ primarily by packaging style (through-hole vs. surface mount) and reel specifications. The CNY17-4-500E specifically denotes the surface mount version with tape-and-reel delivery.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other CNY17 variants with compatible pinouts and electrical ratings, such as CNY17-4-300E for surface mount applications. Cross-brand replacements must match the 5000 Vrms isolation, NPN output type, and PDIP-6 form factor. VerifyCTR ranges and switching speeds before substitution.
