CNY17-3XSM

Optoisolators are used in modern industry to isolate electronic applications from one another, helping to reduce damage and improve reliability. The CNY17-3XSM is an optoisolator that uses a transistor, photovoltaic output for this purpose.

The CNY17-3XSM is a three-terminal optoisolator, featuring a phototransistor and a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode. The optoisolator uses photocoupling principles, and features a direct-drive board-mountable package. This package is designed for use either in horizontal or vertical mounting configurations. The package can also be mounted to a DIP adapter for compatibility with a variety of applications.

The optoisolator features a broad input voltage range that extends from 10 to 30 volts DC. It also offers higher optical coupling performance than it predecessors. This optoisolator can operate at typical LED current of 5mA, and features a minimum CTR (current transfer ratio) of 800%. This optoisolator is designed to provide maximum performance, durability, and reliability over a wide range of temperatures.

The optoisolator works by converting the electrical output of a device into optical output. This process involves the use of the phototransistor to detect the electrical signal, and convert it to a light signal. The light signal is then sent to the gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode, which converts the signal into an electrical one. This electrical output is then sent back to the application, providing improved isolation and improved reliability.

The CNY17-3XSM is used in a variety of applications, including switching, sensing, and lighting. It is also used in industrial controls and medical equipment, as well as in communications and data systems. The optoisolator is also used in a variety of consumer applications, including personal electronics, security systems, toys, and lighting. The optoisolator can also be used for remote control applications, providing improved safety and reliability.

The CNY17-3XSM optoisolator is a reliable device that provides improved performance and reliability in a variety of applications. By using a transistor, photovoltaic output, the optoisolator can provide high-quality isolation and reduce potential damage or failure in a variety of applications.
