HCPL-817-06CE

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The HCPL-817-06CE is a single-channel phototransistor output optocoupler from Broadcom's HCPL series. It features a surface-mount DIP package with four pins and accepts DC input. The device provides an isolation voltage of 5000 Vrms and supports a maximum collector current of 50 mA with a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 70 V. Typical switching times include a rise time of 4 µs and a fall time of 3 µs. The current transfer ratio ranges from 300% to 600%, with a typical forward voltage of 1.4 V at 5 mA input. It operates within a temperature range of -30°C to 100°C.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Feature Summary

• Provides high-voltage electrical isolation between circuits using an internal LED and phototransistor configuration.
• Designed for high-density mounting in a compact surface-mount DIP package.
• Capable of transmitting signals while maintaining galvanic separation between input and output sides.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Applications

• General-purpose signal isolation in industrial control systems
• Interface circuits requiring high isolation voltage ratings

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '06CE' against official Broadcom documentation to confirm the exact tape-and-reel packaging and lead-free status. Ensure the selected variant matches the required current transfer ratio bin and operating temperature range for the target application environment.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount solution with high isolation voltage is required. Compare the 4 µs rise time against system speed requirements. Verify that the 50 mA collector current capability meets the load drive needs of the downstream circuitry.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the HCPL-817 family, which consists of high-density phototransistor optocouplers. The family includes various suffixes indicating different packaging types (tube vs. reel) and current transfer ratio grades. The HCPL-817 series is designed for applications requiring reliable signal transmission across isolated boundaries.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Check for HCPL-817 variants with different suffixes such as '00BE' or '06DE'. Note that these may differ in packaging (tube vs. reel) or current transfer ratio specifications. Confirm pinout compatibility before substitution.
