PC357M8J000F

Overview

The PC357M8J000F is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Sharp Microelectronics. It features a Mini-Flat 4-pin surface-mount package designed for compact circuit integration. The device provides an isolation voltage of 3750Vrms, ensuring robust electrical separation between input and output circuits. Key electrical parameters include a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 80V and a maximum collector current of 8mA. The typical rise and fall times are both 18μs, supporting standard speed applications. The unit operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +100°C.

Feature Summary

• Provides high-voltage electrical isolation via a phototransistor output configuration.

Applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific CTR ranking suffix against official Sharp documentation, as variations exist within the PC357NJ series. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the manufacturer's latest datasheet or certification records. Ensure the Mini-Flat footprint matches the target PCB layout dimensions precisely before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact SMD optocoupler with moderate speed and high isolation voltage is required. The 8mA collector current limit defines its suitability for low-power signal transmission rather than high-drive applications. Verify that the 18μs switching speed meets the system's timing requirements for data integrity.
