PC357N1J000F

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The PC357N1J000F is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler from Sharp Microelectronics, housed in a 4-pin Mini-flat surface-mount package. It features an infrared emitting diode optically coupled to an NPN phototransistor. Key electrical parameters include a collector-emitter voltage of 80 V, a maximum collector current of 8 mA, and an isolation voltage of 3750 Vrms. The device operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +100°C and offers a typical rise/fall time of 18 µs.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Feature Summary

• Provides high-voltage electrical isolation between input and output circuits via optical coupling.
• Features a compact Mini-flat surface-mount package suitable for space-constrained designs.
• Delivers standardized current transfer ratio ranking for consistent signal transmission performance.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Applications

• General-purpose signal isolation in industrial control systems
• Input/output interface isolation in consumer electronics
• Power supply feedback loop isolation

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific CTR bin (80-160%) required for your application against the datasheet specifications. Confirm that the 8 mA maximum collector current meets your load requirements. Ensure compatibility with the Mini-flat-4 footprint during PCB layout. Check for RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are a concern for your manufacturing process.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-cost, general-purpose optocoupler with moderate speed is needed. The 8 mA collector current limit distinguishes it from higher-current variants like the PC357N9J000F. Consider the 18 µs switching speed for applications not requiring high-frequency operation. The Mini-flat package offers a smaller footprint compared to traditional DIP packages.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the PC357NJ0000F series, which includes various CTR-ranked versions such as PC357N2J000F and PC357N9J000F. All members share the same Mini-flat package and basic electrical characteristics but differ in their Current Transfer Ratio ranges. This series is designed for general-purpose isolation tasks where cost-effectiveness and standard performance are prioritized over high-speed or high-current capabilities.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

PC357N2J000F (CTR 130-260%), PC357N9J000F (CTR 130-600%). Verify CTR requirements before substitution.
