VISHAY CNY17F-3 Phototransistor Optocoupler, DIP, 6-Pin, 60mA, 5kV

VISHAY CNY17F-3 Phototransistor Optocoupler is a 1-channel optocoupler with a phototransistor output, supplied in a 6-pin DIP (Dual In-line Package) and rated for 5kV isolation.

Overview

The CNY17F-3 combines a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode with a silicon NPN phototransistor in a single compact unit. This construction allows signal information, including DC levels, to be transmitted while providing electrical isolation between the input and output circuits. The isolation helps protect sensitive components from voltage spikes and noise.

Key Features

• 1-channel phototransistor output optocoupler
• Standard 6-pin DIP package
• Minimum Current Transfer Ratio (CTR) of 100%
• Isolation test voltage of 5000Vrms (5kV)
• Maximum forward current (If) of 60mA
• Collector-emitter voltage (Vceo) of 80V
• Phototransistor with base connection

Applications

The device can serve as a solid-state replacement for electromechanical relays and transformers in many digital interface scenarios. It can also be used in analogue applications, such as modulating signals in CRT displays. It is suited to communication systems and networking equipment, where electrical isolation between circuit sections helps prevent ground loops and protect against transients.

Specifications

• Dimensions (W x D x H): 3.3 x 1.5 x 4.3
• Weight: 3.478 g

Choose the VISHAY CNY17F-3 when a compact 6-pin DIP optocoupler with 5kV isolation and a minimum CTR of 100% is required for signal isolation in digital or analogue interface circuits.
