OLS910

Overview

The Skyworks Solutions Inc. OLS910 is a hermetic surface-mount photovoltaic optocoupler featuring a single channel with a 1500VDC isolation voltage. It utilizes a 6-CLCC package measuring 6.22mm by 4.32mm. The device provides galvanic isolation between input and output circuits using a photodiode output configuration, suitable for applications requiring high reliability and robust electrical separation in harsh environments.

Feature Summary

• Hermetic sealing ensures long-term reliability and protection against environmental factors
• Photovoltaic output architecture eliminates the need for external bias voltage on the output side
• High isolation voltage rating of 1500VDC provides robust safety barriers
• Surface-mount construction facilitates automated assembly and compact PCB integration

Applications

• Medical equipment requiring strict isolation standards
• Industrial control systems with high noise immunity needs
• Power supply feedback loops for isolated regulation
• Test and measurement instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes if available, as they may indicate packaging variations or testing levels. Confirm that the hermetic seal integrity meets your environmental requirements. Ensure the 6-CLCC footprint matches your PCB design exactly. Check for any RoHS or REACH compliance documentation relevant to your region's regulations before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Choose this component when high isolation voltage and hermetic sealing are critical. The photovoltaic output requires careful consideration of load capacitance and response time compared to transistor outputs. Evaluate the physical size constraints against the 6-CLCC dimensions. Consider thermal management needs despite the low power consumption typical of optocouplers.

Part Context

This part belongs to Skyworks' portfolio of photovoltaic optocouplers, designed for high-reliability applications. It complements other models like the OLI series but distinguishes itself through its hermetic construction and specific photovoltaic output characteristics. The family focuses on providing robust isolation solutions for sensitive electronic systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 6-CLCC package and hermetic sealing requirement. Verify that substitute components offer equivalent 1500VDC isolation and photovoltaic output behavior. Check pinout compatibility to ensure seamless integration without PCB redesign. Consult manufacturer datasheets for cross-reference recommendations.
