TIL196X

Overview

The TIL196X is a high-density, four-channel optocoupler manufactured by Isocom Components 2004 LTD. It features a 16-pin DIP package and utilizes AC input drivers consisting of two infrared LEDs connected in inverse parallel. The device provides transistor output with an isolation voltage of 5300Vrms. It operates within a temperature range of -55°C to 100°C and carries UL certification.

Feature Summary

• Four independent channels for high-density signal isolation
• AC input capability via inverse-parallel LED configuration
• Transistor output stage for digital switching applications

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring multi-channel isolation
• Data communication interfaces
• Solid-state relay driver circuits

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'X' against official Isocom documentation to confirm pinout and electrical characteristics match the target design. Ensure the 16-pin DIP form factor aligns with PCB layout constraints. Confirm that the AC input specification meets the source circuit requirements.

Selection Notes

Select this component when multiple isolated channels are required in a compact footprint. The AC input feature simplifies driving from AC sources without additional rectification. Verify that the transistor output current capacity satisfies the load requirements of the destination circuit.
