Avago's Optocouplers Target Industrial Applications
Avago Technologies has announced a new family of multi-channel phototransistor optocouplers to complement its existing single-channel product line. The company is a leading supplier of innovative semiconductor solutions for advanced communications, industrial and commercial applications.
With a world-class delivery track record and solid optocoupler expertise, Avago's new dual- and quad-channel phototransistors are ideal for industrial applications, such as high-end switch-mode power supplies for servers and telecom equipment.
Avago's ACPL-824 and ACPL-827 are 2-channel, full-pitch AC and DC input phototransistors in an 8-pin DIP package. The ACPL-844 and ACPL-847 are 4-channel, full-pitch AC and DC input phototransistors in a 16-pin DIP package. Designed with a high input-output isolation voltage of 5000 Vrms, these new phototransistors are available in several options, including wide-lead spacing, lead bend (for surface mounting) and lead free (for RoHS compliance). This multi-channel phototransistor line meets safety and regulatory compliance approvals for CSA, UL 1577 and IEC 60747-5-2.
