PS2815-4-F3-A

Overview

The PS2815-4-F3-A is a four-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It features an isolation voltage of 2500Vrms and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 100°C. The device supports AC and DC input signals with a maximum forward current of 50 mA and a typical forward voltage of 1.15 V. Output characteristics include a collector-emitter voltage of 40 V, a saturation voltage of 300 mV, and a channel current capacity of 40 mA. The current transfer ratio ranges from 100% to 400% at 1 mA input. Typical rise and fall times are 4 µs and 5 µs, respectively. It is housed in a 16-SSOP surface-mount package.

Feature Summary

• Provides electrical isolation for four independent signal channels within a single compact package.
• Supports both AC and DC input signal types for versatile interface applications.
• Delivers high current transfer ratios to ensure reliable signal transmission across the isolation barrier.

Applications

• Industrial automation control systems requiring multi-channel signal isolation

• Power supply units utilizing feedback loop isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix F3-A against official Renesas documentation to confirm pinout compatibility and packaging specifications. Ensure that the required isolation voltage and thermal operating range align with the target system design constraints before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this component when multiple isolated channels are required in a space-constrained environment. Consider the 40 V output voltage limit and 40 mA current capability to ensure compatibility with downstream logic or switching circuits. Verify that the 2500Vrms isolation rating meets the safety standards applicable to the specific application domain.

Part Context

This part belongs to the NEPOC series of optocouplers produced by Renesas Electronics Corporation. It is designed as a surface-mount solution for applications demanding robust electrical isolation. The 16-SSOP package facilitates automated assembly processes while maintaining a small footprint suitable for dense circuit board layouts.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Renesas cross-reference documents for verified substitute part numbers. Do not assume functional equivalence based on similar package types or channel counts without verifying electrical parameter alignment.
