66164

66164 REVISION A SINGLE CHANNEL LINEAR OPTOCOUPLER Electrically Similar to 3C92C Mii OPTOELECTRONIC PRODUCTS DIVISION 8/30/00 Features: High Reliability Base lead eliminated for improved noise immunity Rugged package Stability over wide temperature +500V electrical isolation Applications: Eliminate ground loops Level shifting Line receiver Switching power supplies Motor control DESCRIPTION The 66164 contains a gallium arsenide infrared LED optically coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor. The optocoupler is built on a TO-46 header. The collector of the phototransistor is electrically connected to the case. This optocoupler is capable of transmitting signals between two galvanic sources. The potential difference between transmitter and receiver should not go over the maximum isolation voltage. The internal base connection has been eliminated for improved noise immunity.
