High-speed Photocouplers Help Reduce Component Count
September 12, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
CAMAS, Wash. — Sharp Microelectronics of the Americas' S08 photocouplers line includes 1-, 15- and 25-Mbps devices in single-channel models, and 10-Mbps devices in both single- and dual-channel models. Each reportedly uses the industry-standard footprint and incorporates optimal noise immunity, high heat resistance and improved isolation characteristics. Offered in a small, thin package in a true surface mount configuration, the dual-channel S08 package also helps reduce board space and component count, as well as the number of placements during manufacturing. Suitable applications include, but are not limited to plasma display panels, digital audio amplifiers, power supplies, digital field bus and ground isolation in high-speed logic.
