Optocoupler

Product Details:

The 6N136 is a high speed Optocoupler with Transistor output. It can switch at a speed of 1 Mbit/s with Bandwidth of 2MHz. It is TTL compatible with open collector output commonly used in Power supply circuits like inverter or in Data transfer circuits as logic isolators.

Product Details:

This universal triac controller circuit with optocoupler solves the problem that triacs have when functioning at low temperatures (triac needs higher gate current) by adding a transistor at the output of the optocoupler circuit.
The transistor amplifiers the trigger pulse coming from the optocoupler and the gate current is high enough to trigger the triac in all temperature cases.

Product Details:

Logic output optocoupler use light to transmit information across an electrical insulation barrier, usually for safety or functional reasons. These additional circuits require provision of an external power source for proper operation.
