The Avago ultra low power ACPL-x6xL digital optocouplers
combine an AlGaAs light emitting diode (LED) and an
integrated high gain photodetector. The optocoupler
consumes extremely low power, at maximum 1.3mA IDD
current per channel across temperature. With a forward
LED current as low as 1.6 mA most microprocessors can
directly drive the LED.
An internal Faraday shield provides a guaranteed common
mode transient immunity specification of 20 kV/μs.
Maximum AC and DC circuit isolation is achieved while
maintaining TTL/CMOS compatibility.
The optocouplers CMOS outputs are slew-rate controlled
and is designed to allow the rise and fall time to be controlled over a wide load capacitance range.
The ACPL-x6xL series operates from both 3.3 V and 5 V
supply voltages with guaranteed AC and DC performance
from –40°C to +105°C.
These low-power optocouplers are suitable for high speed
logic interface applications.
