MCT2TVM

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The MCT2TVM is a single-channel optocoupler from onsemi featuring an infrared LED input and a Darlington transistor output with base terminal. It utilizes a 6-pin DIP package for through-hole mounting. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage of 1.5V, a maximum input current of 60mA, and a high isolation voltage of 7500Vrms AC. The device operates within a temperature range of -40°C to 100°C and exhibits a typical rise time of 2μs.

• Microcontroller interface isolation

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'TVM' against official datasheets to confirm tape-and-reel packaging and lead-free status. Ensure compatibility with 6-pin DIP footprints during PCB layout. Cross-reference isolation ratings with system safety requirements before finalizing component selection.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when high-speed switching is required compared to standard phototransistor outputs. The integrated base allows for external resistance adjustment to optimize turn-off times. Verify that the 7500Vrms isolation meets the specific creepage and clearance standards of the target application environment.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the MCT2 series of optocouplers, designed for general-purpose isolation tasks. It complements other variants like MCT2ESM by offering a Darlington configuration suitable for higher gain applications. The series is widely used in industrial and consumer electronics for signal transmission across isolated boundaries.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Check for direct equivalents such as MCT2EM or MCT2SVM if different packaging or specific performance tweaks are needed. Ensure substitute parts maintain the same 6-pin DIP footprint and Darlington output topology.
