Broadcom DC Input 2-Channel Optocoupler, Surface, 8-Pin SOIC

Broadcom HCPL Series Optocoupler, 3.75kVrms Isolation Voltage, 15mA Maximum Input Current - HCPL-063L-000E

This optocoupler provides galvanic separation between input and output for DC control signals in surface-mounted designs. It contains two isolated channels in an 8-pin SOIC package and delivers logic-compatible outputs while withstanding significant transient stresses. The device is suitable for board-level isolation where switching speed and a defined operating temperature range are required.

Features and Benefits:

• 3.75kVrms isolation for robust separation between circuits
  10ns fall time enabling fast signal deassertion in digital paths
  24ns rise time supporting Rapid signal assertion in timing-critical systems
  15mA maximum forward current allowing standard LED drive levels
  1.75V maximum forward voltage minimises input drive voltage requirements
  Surface-mount SOIC 8-pin format for Compact automated assembly

Applications

• Suitable for isolating microcontroller interfaces in industrial controls
  Ideal for protecting logic inputs in power supply feedback loops
  Used with digital communication lines requiring fast edge rates
  Can be used for interfacing sensors to galvanically separate domains
  Used for board-level isolation in equipment operating -40 to 85°C
