DPC816D-C-TU-V

Overview

The DPC816D-C-TU-V is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Diodes Incorporated. It features a phototransistor output in a DIP-4 through-hole package. Key electrical parameters include an isolation voltage of 5000 Vrms, a collector-emitter voltage of 80 V, and a maximum collector current of 30 mA. The device operates with a forward current of 5 mA and exhibits a forward voltage of 1.25 V. Current transfer ratio ranges from 100% to 200%. Switching times are specified at 18 µs for both rise and fall. Power dissipation is limited to 200 mW, with an operating temperature range of -55°C to +110°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides galvanic isolation via a phototransistor output structure within a compact DIP-4 package.

Applications

• General-purpose signal isolation in industrial control systems
• Interface circuits for microprocessor-based logic systems
• Power supply feedback loop isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'C' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm the exact Current Transfer Ratio (CTR) binning, as this parameter varies significantly across different sub-models within the DPC816D series. Ensure the DIP-4 tube packaging aligns with assembly requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the supplier documentation prior to procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high isolation voltage and moderate speed are required for low-power signal transmission. Compare the CTR specifications against other variants like the DPC816D-A or D to ensure compatibility with input drive levels. Verify that the 80 V collector-emitter voltage rating exceeds the load requirements in the target circuit design.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DPC816D family of transistor output optocouplers from Diodes Incorporated. These devices are designed for general-purpose isolation applications. The family shares common mechanical dimensions and basic switching characteristics, differing primarily in CTR bins and specific electrical tolerances defined by the alphanumeric suffixes.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements may include other DPC816D variants such as DPC816D-A-TU-V or DPC816D-Y-TU-V, provided their respective CTR ranges match the application's sensitivity requirements. Cross-reference pinouts and thermal characteristics before substitution.
