Connection for the bias of the photodiode improves the speed of a conventional phototransistor coupler by reducing the base-collector capacitances. The internal shield ensures high common mode transient immunity of up to 1KV/µsec. The two channel coupler comes in a SOP8 surface mountable package with 1.27mm lead spacing. It has a low input current of 1mA. A minimum BVCEO of 80V is guaranteed as well as a high input-output isolation of 3.75KV, AC Vrms.
The LTV-0501/0701 is ideal for various applications, e.g.: as isolation in line receivers, ground loop elimination, feedback element switching and mode power supplier, high speed logic ground isolation (TTL/TTL, TTL/CMOS, TTL/LSTTL), pulse transformer replacement, power transistor isolation in motor drives and interface between microprocessor system, computer and their peripheral.
