EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V Datasheet/PDFThe EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V is an optoisolator belonging to the “Transistor, Photovoltaic Output” category, specifically designed to protect sensitive electronic circuits. It is a semiconductor device, consisting of an LED and a phototransistor. The LED transmits light into the phototransistor, whose collector-emitter junction is electrically isolated from the LED and from the other components of the circuit.
The purpose of this optoisolator is to protect the downstream devices from voltage transients. It acts as an insulator between the two sections (“floating”), thus protecting the “electric load”, isolated from the control circuit, from interference, noise, and voltage transients. This protection can be up to 2000 Volts and it is unaffected by variations in temperature.
The EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V Optoisolator is a reliable solution to the problem of protecting “electric load” circuits from the supposed dangerous transients that can damage and disrupt sensitive electronic systems. It comes in a wide range of operating and output voltage ratings, allowing it to be used in a variety of applications. Some of the most common applications for the EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V optoisolator are in industrial machine control, medical monitoring systems, automotive electronics, security systems, and consumer electronics.
Moreover, the EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V optoisolator can be used in both digital and analog circuits. The digital input is simply a switch that is closed when the digital signal is active, typically controlled by a microcontroller. The analog input is usually an AC or DC voltage signal that is connected to the optoisolator’s terminals. This signal is then converted by the optoisolator into an equivalent LDR (light-dependent resistor) voltage.
Finally, the EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V optoisolator provides an excellent solution for analogue isolation, as it allows for the isolation of AC, DC, and PWM signals, therefore allowing for smooth, continuous signals that are not affected by interference or transients. Additionally, the optoisolator can be used in power supplies, allowing the power to be “clipped” at a certain level without causing any damage to the downstream devices. Additionally, optoisolators can be used in a wide range of applications, including temperature sensing, process control, motor control, and communications.
In summary, the EL816(S)(C)(TU)-V optoisolator is a reliable semiconductor device, designed to protect sensitive electronic components from voltage transients. It is able to provide isolation between digital and analog circuits, making it an ideal solution for a wide range of applications. Furthermore, its low voltage and temperature ratings make it an ideal solution for a variety of electronic systems. Therefore, it is an ideal choice for industrial, automotive, and consumer electronics.
