Isocom Components 2004 LTD 6N136 Environmental and export classification status description

of Lite-On Technology 6N136 The Lite-On Technology 6N136 is a high-speed optocoupler designed for signal isolation in digital communication. It features a phototransistor output that is triggered by an input LED, providing galvanic isolation between input and output circuits. This device is commonly used in applications requiring high-speed data transmission while maintaining electrical isolation. Functions - Galvanic Isolation: Provides electrical isolation between input and output, protecting circuits from voltage spikes or noise. - Signal Amplification: Transmits digital signals with minimal distortion. - High-Speed Operation: Capable of transmitting data at high speeds suitable for digital communications. Applications - Data Communication: Used in serial communication lines (e.g., RS-232, RS-485) to protect sensitive components from high voltages. - Microcontroller Interfacing: Facilitates connections between microcontrollers and high-voltage systems. - Industrial Automation: Employed in control systems to isolate and protect sensitive instrumentation. Alternative Parts - 6N137: Similar to 6N136, but with slightly different characteristics for varying speed and isolation voltage. - TLP devices: Such as TLP176, offer comparable isolation with different speed and pin configurations. - HCPL family: Optical isolators from other manufacturers like Agilent Technologies that provide similar functionalities. Embedded Modules There may not be specific “embedded modules” for the 6N136, but it can be used in various development boards where isolation is needed for sensor interfacing, PWM signal isolation, or interfacing between different voltage levels and types of circuits. Related Q&A Q1: What is the maximum isolation voltage rating of the Lite-On 6N136? A1: The maximum isolation voltage rating of the Lite-On 6N136 optocoupler is typically around 5,000 VRMS. Q2: How does the 6N136 provide galvanic isolation? A2: The 6N136 provides galvanic isolation by using a light-emitting diode (LED) to transmit a signal across an air gap to a phototransistor, which conducts the signal without any electrical connection between the input and output sides. Q3: What are the main differences between the 6N136 and the 6N137? A3: The 6N136 generally operates at a lower speed than the 6N137. The 6N137 is designed for higher speed applications with a faster output response time. Q4: In which scenarios would I prefer using the 6N136 over a traditional transistor? A4: You would prefer using the 6N136 when electrical isolation is necessary, such as protecting sensitive components from high voltage or noise in industrial environments, or when interfacing with different ground potentials. Q5: Can the 6N136 be used for PWM signal isolation? A5: Yes, the 6N136 can be used for PWM signal isolation in applications that require protection from voltage spikes and where it is essential to maintain the integrity of the PWM signals across isolated grounds.
