ONSEMI MOCD217-M Dual Channel Optocoupler SOIC 8 Pins 60mA 2.5kV

The ONSEMI MOCD217-M is a dual-channel phototransistor output optocoupler designed for high-density applications. It consists of two gallium arsenide infrared emitting diodes optically coupled to two monolithic silicon phototransistor detectors, all housed in a surface-mountable, small outline plastic package. This configuration eliminates the need for through-the-board mounting, saving valuable PCB space and simplifying assembly.

The device provides closely matched current transfer ratios, ensuring consistent performance across both channels. A minimum BVCEO of 30V is guaranteed, offering reliable voltage handling. The low LED input current required makes logic interfacing easier, reducing power consumption and simplifying drive circuitry.

Typical applications include:

• Communications equipment
• Networking infrastructure
• Portable devices
• Sensing instrumentation
• Security systems

Supplied in a tube packaging of 100 units, the MOCD217-M is a versatile and dependable choice for designers needing robust signal isolation in space-constrained designs. Its surface-mount SOIC package with 8 pins supports efficient automated manufacturing processes.
