PC81712NIP0F

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Overview

The PC81712NIP0F is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Sharp Microelectronics. It features an NPN phototransistor output with a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 80 V and a collector current of 50 mA. The device provides 5000 Vrms isolation voltage between input and output. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 10 mA, a forward voltage of 1.2 V, and a collector-emitter saturation voltage of 200 mV. The current transfer ratio ranges from 160% to 400% at a test current of 500 µA. Typical switching times are 4 µs for rise time and 3 µs for fall time. It operates within a temperature range of -30°C to +100°C and is housed in a 4-SMD (gull-wing) package.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '0F' against official Sharp documentation to confirm RoHS compliance status, as some sources indicate non-compliance for this series variant. Confirm the package type matches the required 4-SMD gull-wing form factor. Check current availability status as some distributors list this part as obsolete or end-of-life. Ensure the supplier provides valid traceability documents for Sharp Microelectronics origin.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Selection Notes

Select this component when a surface-mount solution is required for low-speed digital isolation. Compare the 50 mA collector current limit against load requirements. Evaluate the 160-400% CTR range for circuit gain stability. Consider the 4 µs/3 µs switching speeds for timing constraints. Verify thermal management needs within the -30°C to +100°C operating range.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Part Context

This part belongs to the PC817 family of transistor output optocouplers from Sharp Microelectronics. The PC817 series is widely used for general-purpose isolation applications. The '12' designation typically indicates a specific Current Transfer Ratio binning, while 'NIP' denotes the surface-mount package style. The '0F' suffix often relates to packaging or regulatory compliance variations within the product line.

Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible replacements may include other PC817 variants such as PC817XNNIP0F, though CTR specifications and RoHS status must be verified. Alternative manufacturers offer similar 4-pin SMD optocouplers, but isolation voltage and CTR characteristics should be compared carefully.
