Logic Output Optoisolators Overview

The HCPL-260L-520 is a high-speed optocoupler featuring a single channel with an open collector output. It operates at a data rate of 15 Mb/s and provides 3750 Vrms isolation voltage. The device supports a forward current of 20 mA with a forward voltage of 1.75 V. Rise time is specified at 45 ns, while fall time is 20 ns. The reverse voltage rating is not explicitly defined in the provided source text for this specific suffix variant.

Logic Output Optoisolators Feature Summary

• Integrates a GaAsP light emitting diode with an integrated high gain photo detector
• Provides logic output isolation suitable for high-speed signal transmission
• Features Schottky clamping on the output stage to enhance switching performance

Logic Output Optoisolators Applications

• High-speed signal isolation in industrial control systems
• Data communication interfaces requiring galvanic isolation
• Logic circuit interfacing where noise immunity is critical

Logic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the exact suffix against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm electrical parameters such as isolation voltage and data rate, as variations exist within the HCPL-260L family. Ensure the PDIP-8 package type matches the target PCB footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the specific product documentation rather than assuming standard availability.

Logic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a 15 Mb/s data rate and open collector output are required for single-channel isolation. Compare the 3750 Vrms isolation rating against system safety requirements. Consider the 20 mA forward current drive capability relative to the LED driver circuit design. Evaluate the 45 ns rise time against the maximum signal frequency constraints of the application.

Logic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the HCPL-260L series of high-speed optocouplers manufactured by Broadcom Limited. The series combines a GaAsP LED with a high-gain photodetector to achieve fast switching speeds. The HCPL-260L-520 specifically denotes the packaging and commercial grade variant within this logical output family.

Logic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

HCPL-260L-000E offers similar 15 Mb/s speed but may differ in isolation voltage specifications. HCPL-2601-520E provides 10 Mb/s speed with 5000 Vrms isolation. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter overlaps before substitution.
