MCT6 Vishay Semiconductors Optocoupler, Phototransistor Output, Dual Channel FEATURES Current transfer ratio, 50 % typical Leakage current, 1.0 nA typical A 1 8 E Two isolated channels per package C 2 7 C Compliant to RoHS Directive and in accordance to WEEE 2002/96/EC C C 3 6 A E 4 5 AGENCY APPROVALS UL1577, file no. E52744 system code H, double protection DIN EN 60747-5-2 (VDE 0884)/DIN EN 60747-5-5 pending available with option 1 i179073 CSA 93751 BSI IEC 60950 IEC 60065 DESCRIPTION The MCT6 is a two channel optocoupler for high density applications. Each channel consists of an optically coupled pair with a gallium arsenide infrared LED and a silicon NPN phototransistor. Signal information, including a DC level, can be transmitted by the device while maintaining a high degree of electrical isolation between input and output. The MCT6 is especially designed for driving medium-speed logic, where it may be used to eliminate troublesome ground loop and noise problems. It can also be used to replace relays and transformers in many digital interface applications, as well as analog applications such as CRT modulation.
