SFH600-2X016

Overview

The SFH600-2X016 is a single-channel transistor output optocoupler manufactured by Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division. It features an NPN phototransistor with base output and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +100°C. Key electrical parameters include a maximum collector-emitter voltage of 70 V, a maximum collector current of 100 mA, and a power dissipation of 150 mW. The device provides an insulation voltage of 5300 Vrms and utilizes a PDIP-6 through-hole package.

Feature Summary

• Integrates a GaAs LED emitter optically coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor detector for signal isolation.
• Provides high insulation voltage capability of 5300 Vrms between input and output circuits.
• Features a phototransistor output with a dedicated base terminal for enhanced switching control.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring galvanic isolation
• Power supply feedback loops
• Signal isolation in communication interfaces

Procurement Notes

Verify component authenticity against official Vishay documentation due to the presence of obsolete variants within the SFH600 series. Confirm that the specific suffix X016 corresponds to the required packaging configuration. Cross-reference datasheet specifications with system requirements to ensure compatibility with operating voltages and thermal limits before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a phototransistor output with base access is required for precise timing or gain control applications. Ensure the 100 mA collector current rating meets load demands. Verify that the PDIP-6 package fits the PCB layout constraints and that the 5300 Vrms isolation level satisfies safety standards for the intended circuit environment.

Part Context

The SFH600-2X016 belongs to the SFH600 family of optocouplers, which are designed for general-purpose isolation applications. This specific variant distinguishes itself with a CTR range of 100-200% and a base-connected phototransistor structure, offering more flexibility than standard configurations in the same series.

Replacement Considerations

SFH600-2 is a direct functional equivalent within the same product line but may differ in packaging or manufacturing lot specifications. Verify pinout compatibility and electrical parameter tolerances before substitution.
