Description

6N137 comes up with 10Mbit/sec speed, which makes it one of the high speeds optocoupler.

It has the capability of 5Volt CMOS.

Low voltage AC and DC can be applied directly to the output and input. Its performance will be measured according to temperate on both currents.

IC comes with 5mA current operating capacity.

The output of optocoupler always comes in logic state, HIGH and LOW.

6N137 is a choice of CMR because of its high common-mode transient immunity.

Due to availability of IC in multiple packages as DIP and SMD, it can be used with any circuit.

Its output is based not only input, but it also has an effect by a third pin which comes in handy during using the IC with camera flash.

The receiver end has an NMOS transistor which saves it from the leakage.

SPECIFICATIONS

The maximum power supply input for IC is 7V but typical power input is 5V.

The minimum input voltage for the HIGH state is 2V and for maximum input for the LOW state is 0.8V.

IC gives the propagation delay of 50ns approximately.

The operating temperature for IC is -40 to 100 and its storage temperature range is -55 to 150.

The Solder temperature range for reflow soldering and lead soldering is 260, above this optocoupler performance will be affected.

Power dissipation for IC is 85mW.

The external output pull-up resistor range is 330 to 4k.
