MCT2M

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The MCT2M is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Everlight Electronics Co Ltd. It features an NPN phototransistor output with a base terminal for enhanced performance control. The device provides electrical isolation with a rated insulation voltage of 5000 Vrms. It is housed in a 6-DIP package, specifically identified as 6-DIP (0.400", 10.16mm). The component belongs to the TIL11x and MCT2x series family.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Feature Summary

• Provides high-voltage electrical isolation between input and output circuits
• Includes a dedicated base terminal on the phototransistor for improved switching speed and linearity
• Utilizes a standard 6-pin dual in-line package for through-hole mounting

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring signal isolation
• Solid-state relay driver circuits
• Microcontroller interface isolation

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and package dimensions against the official Everlight datasheet before procurement. Confirm compliance requirements such as RoHS status directly from the manufacturer's documentation. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability for the component batch. Check current availability constraints as distribution may vary by region.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a transistor output optocoupler with a base pin is required for faster response times compared to baseless variants. Verify that the 5000 Vrms isolation rating meets the system's safety standards. Ensure the 6-DIP footprint aligns with the printed circuit board layout. Compare current transfer ratio specifications if precise gain control is necessary for the application.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

The MCT2M is part of the broader MCT2x and TIL11x series of optocouplers produced by Everlight. These devices are designed for general-purpose isolation applications where moderate speed and high isolation voltage are needed. The series typically includes variations with different output configurations or packaging options.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Consult the official datasheet for direct pin-compatible substitutes within the TIL11x or MCT2x series. Verify that any replacement maintains the same NPN phototransistor output type and base terminal configuration. Ensure the alternative component meets the same 5000 Vrms insulation voltage requirement.
