Speedy optocoupler provides 16kV
isolation
Pacer Components can now offer the new OPI 1268 high speed optocoupler manufactured by Optek Technology.
Pacer Components can now offer the new OPI 1268 high speed optocoupler manufactured by Optek Technology Optoisolators are used to isolate electrical "spikes" in one part of the circuit from transmission to another part
They are also useful in appliances and manually controlled electrical equipment to guard the operator against direct electrical contact with the line voltage.
With a 2Mbaud transfer rate and an isolation voltage of 16kV DC this device is a direct equivalent to he now discontinued TLP582.
The circuit is temperature, current and voltage compensated and the design of the device produces DC and AC current isolation between input and output while providing TTL circuit compatibility.
This coupler comes in a black plastic housing, which is approximately 28mm long and has a creepage distance of 24.64mm. Request a free brochure from Pacer International ...
