About High Speed Optocouplers
Broadcom High Speed Optocouplers
High Speed Optocouplers are devices used to isolate electrical circuits from each other by transmitting electrical information through light. They are used in a wide range of applications, including signal conditioning, signal processing, communications, data transfer, medical equipment and more. High Speed Optocouplers provide optical isolation between two systems, preventing noise and interference from affecting one system. This optical isolation also helps to protect equipment from high voltage transients and other electrical hazards. High Speed Optocouplers are faster than traditional optocouplers and can transmit electrical signals at speeds of up to 8 Gb/s. They feature low power dissipation, low input capacitance and wide speed ranges. They are commonly used in power electronics and motor control applications.
