PS8502L2-E3-AX

Overview

The PS8502L2-E3-AX is a high-speed optocoupler manufactured by Renesas Electronics. It features a single channel with a data rate of 1 Mb/s and an insulation voltage of 5000 Vrms. The device utilizes a Photo IC output type and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +100°C. Key electrical parameters include a forward current of 16 mA, a forward voltage of 1.7 V, and a reverse voltage of 5 V. The unit has a current transfer ratio of 15%, an output current of 8 mA, and a power dissipation of 100 mW. It is housed in an 8-pin DIP Gull Wing package.

Feature Summary

• Provides high-speed signal transmission capability at 1 Mb/s for digital isolation applications.
• Ensures robust electrical safety through a 5000 Vrms insulation voltage rating between input and output circuits.
• Delivers stable performance across a wide industrial operating temperature range from -55°C to +100°C.

Applications

• Industrial automation systems requiring galvanic isolation
• Power supply feedback loops for noise immunity
• Communication interfaces needing high common-mode rejection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix E3 against official Renesas documentation to confirm compliance with RoHS directives and halogen-free status. Confirm that the DIP-8 Gull Wing package matches your PCB footprint requirements. Ensure the 1 Mb/s data rate aligns with your system's timing constraints. Check for any specific handling instructions related to the reel packaging format provided by the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a single-channel high-speed isolator with 5000 Vrms insulation is required. It is suitable for designs needing a 15% current transfer ratio and operation up to 100°C. Consider the 8 mA output current capability for driving downstream logic. Verify compatibility with the 16 mA forward current drive requirement for optimal performance.

Part Context

This part belongs to the PS8502L2 series of high-speed optocouplers from Renesas Electronics. The series is designed for applications demanding fast data rates and high reliability. The PS8502L2-E3-AX variant specifically denotes the leaded (E3) version in an 8-pin DIP package, distinguishing it from surface-mount or other pin-compatible alternatives within the same functional family.
