CNY17-5

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The CNY17-5 is a single-channel optocoupler manufactured by Isocom Components 2004 LTD, featuring a phototransistor output. It provides an isolation voltage of 5300Vrms and supports a maximum forward input current of 60 mA. The device exhibits a typical collector-emitter breakdown voltage of 70V. Its current transfer ratio ranges from a minimum of 100% to a maximum of 200%. The component is available in surface mount (SMD) configurations with six pins.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Feature Summary

• Provides high-voltage electrical isolation between input and output circuits
• Features a phototransistor output stage for signal transmission
• Supports direct current input control signals

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Applications

• Signal isolation in digital communication interfaces
• Switching applications requiring galvanic isolation
• Microcontroller interface circuits

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific package variant when ordering, as the CNY17-5 series includes both through-hole and surface mount options. Confirm the manufacturer source, noting that Isocom Components 2004 LTD produces this part. Ensure the selected suffix matches the required mounting style for your PCB design.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select the CNY17-5 when a high current transfer ratio is required compared to standard variants. The 100% to 200% CTR range ensures robust switching performance. Verify that the 60 mA maximum forward current rating meets the drive requirements of the controlling circuitry.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This component belongs to the CNY17 family of optocouplers, which are widely used for general-purpose isolation. The CNY17-5 specifically denotes a variant with a higher current transfer ratio than lower-numbered counterparts like the CNY17-1. It shares the same basic pinout and isolation characteristics as other members of the series.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Compatible substitutes include the CNY17-5SMT&R for surface mount needs or the CNY17-5XG for through-hole applications. Other manufacturers offer equivalent parts within the CNY17 series, provided the 5300Vrms isolation and 70V collector-emitter voltage ratings are maintained.
