HCPL-814-060E

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The HCPL-814-060E is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Broadcom Limited. It features an internal phototransistor optically coupled to two parallel, reverse-connected light-emitting diodes, enabling direct AC input drive without external rectification. The device provides 5000 Vrms isolation voltage and operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +100°C. Key electrical parameters include a maximum collector current of 50 mA, a typical rise time of 4 µs, and a fall time of 3 µs. The forward voltage is typically 1.2 V at a maximum forward current of 50 mA.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Feature Summary

• High insulation voltage capability of 5000 Vrms for robust signal isolation.
• Phototransistor output supports up to 50 mA collector current with low saturation voltage.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Applications

• AC signal detection circuits
• Isolation between AC mains and digital logic interfaces
• Input modules for programmable logic controllers (PLCs)
• AC/DC input interface boards

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '060E' against the official Broadcom datasheet to confirm package type and compliance status. Ensure the procurement source provides valid RoHS documentation. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to avoid counterfeit components. Confirm that the 4-pin DIP packaging matches the target PCB footprint requirements before finalizing orders.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when AC input drive capability is required without external rectifiers. The 5000 Vrms isolation rating suits high-voltage noise environments. Compare response times against system timing constraints, as the 4 µs rise time may limit high-frequency applications. Verify that the 50 mA output current meets the load requirements of the downstream circuitry.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the HCPL-814 series of transistor output optocouplers. The series is characterized by its ability to handle AC inputs directly due to the dual LED configuration. Other variants in the family may differ in CTR ranges, packaging options, or certification standards, but share the core architecture of a phototransistor coupled to bidirectional input diodes.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Check for HCPL-814-000E or HCPL-814-300E if different CTR specifications are acceptable. Verify pinout compatibility with existing designs. Ensure replacement parts maintain the 5000 Vrms isolation rating and 50 mA current handling capacity.
