Optocoupler, Phototransistor Output, with Base Connection

DESCRIPTION

This datasheet presents five families of Vishay industry

standard single channel phototransistor couplers. These

families include the 4N35, 4N36, 4N37, 4N38 couplers.

Each optocoupler consists of gallium arsenide infrared LED

and a silicon NPN phototransistor.

These couplers are Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed to

This isolation performance is accomplished through Vishay

double molding isolation manufacturing process. Comliance

to DIN EN 60747-5-5 partial discharge isolation specification

is available for these families by ordering option 1.

These isolation processes and the Vishay ISO9001 quality

program results in the highest isolation performance available

for a commecial plastic phototransistor optocoupler.

The devices are available in lead formed configuration suitable

for surface mounting and are available either on tape and reel,

or in standard tube shipping containers.
