TIL116X

Overview

The TIL116X is a single-channel optoisolator manufactured by Isocom Components. It integrates an infrared LED with a photovoltaic output structure housed in a 6-pin DIP package. The device provides galvanic isolation rated at 5300Vrms between input and output circuits. Key electrical parameters include a maximum forward voltage of 1.4V, a typical rise time of 100μs, and a typical fall time of 100μs. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 100°C.

Feature Summary

• Photovoltaic output architecture for zero-bias signal transmission
• High-voltage insulation capability for circuit protection
• Robust thermal performance across extended industrial temperature ranges

Applications

• Industrial control system isolation
• Power supply feedback loops
• Microcontroller interface isolation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer designation when sourcing this component, as Isocom Components has undergone corporate restructuring and name changes. Ensure the part number matches the exact suffix required for your application. Confirm that the supplier provides original documentation to validate authenticity and traceability before purchase.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a photovoltaic output is required instead of a transistor or logic gate output. The high isolation voltage makes it suitable for applications demanding significant separation between low-voltage control logic and high-voltage power stages. Consider the slow switching speed relative to faster optocouplers when designing timing-critical circuits.

Part Context

This device belongs to the TIL series of optocouplers from Isocom Components. The series focuses on providing reliable isolation solutions using infrared technology. The TIL116X specifically utilizes a photovoltaic output, distinguishing it from other variants in the lineup that may employ phototransistors or Darlington pairs for different gain and speed characteristics.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the photovoltaic output type and 6-DIP package. Verify equivalent isolation ratings and pinout compatibility. Cross-reference with other manufacturers' photovoltaic optocouplers ensuring identical functional specifications and mechanical dimensions.
