DESCRIPTION
Both 10 MBd widebody optocouplers consist of a GaAlAs
infrared emitting diode, optically coupled with an integrated
photo detector. The detector incorporating an integral
Faraday shield provides a high level of noise isolation,
required by high power switching applications.
Vishay’s 10 MBd widebody couplers feature a high level of
isolation distance, exhibiting an external creepage distance
of > 10 mm. This makes these parts ideal for applications
with working voltages exceeding 1000 V.
