Product Details


High Speed Photo Darlington Transistor Coupler, DIP8, Viso=5000Vrms, DC Input, 1 Channel, CRT Min.400%, Typ.2600%, CMR=1000V/μs, Black Case, Max.45pcs/tube



DESCRIPTION:

The 6N139 series combines an AlGaAs infrared emitting diode as the emitter which is optically coupled to a silicon high speed photo Darlington transistor in a plastic DIP8 package with different lead forming options. A separate design between photodiode and Darlington transistor reduces the base-collector capacitance of the input transistor which improves the speed by several orders of magnitude over conventional phototransistor opto-couplers. 

 

APPLICATIONS:

·        Low current line receivers

·        Current loop receivers

·        Out interface to CMOS-LSTTL-TTL

·        Pulse transformer replacement

·        Computer-peripheral interface

Q&A: 6N138 v.s. 6N139 (REFERENCE ONLY):

The main difference between the 6N138 and 6N139 optocouplers lies in their intended applications due to variations in their current transfer ratio (CTR) and input current requirements. The 6N138 is optimized for TTL applications with a higher input current, while the 6N139 is designed for CMOS and other low-power logic circuits with a lower input current requirement. 


6N138: 

  • Designed for TTL applications: It is well-suited for interfacing with standard TTL logic circuits.
  • Higher input current: It typically requires a higher input current (around 1.6mA) to achieve its specified CTR.
  • CTR: A minimum CTR of 300% is typical for an LED current of 1.6mA.
  • Applications: TTL logic circuits, where a higher current drive capability is needed.

6N139: 

  • Designed for CMOS and low-power applications: It is suitable for interfacing with COMS logic and other low-power circuits.
  • Lower input current: It can operate with a lower input current (around 0.5mA) while still achieving a high CTR.
  • CTR: It typically has a minimum CTR of 400% for an LED current of 0.5mA.
  • Applications: CMOS logic, LSTTL, and other low-power circuits.
