Introduction to Optoisolators - Transistor, Photovoltaic Output

An optoisolator refers to an electronic device that contains a optical interface and an electronic interface to process and incorporate optical information. Its primary function is to isolate electrical circuits, primarily a voltage transmitter from a voltage receiver. Optoisolators thus protect the operating circuits from high voltages or hazardous working conditions. Besides providing an electrical insulation between the driving and the controlled circuits, optoisolators can also work as signal converters that convert input-output, analog-digital, digital-analog, RS-485, voltage-current and other signals.

Transistor, photovoltaic output optoisolators, such as the H11A3FR2VM, are one of the many types of optoisolators available in the market. This type is used mainly in two-wire systems, including remote control systems, instruments and alarms. They are also used in combination with Field-Effect Transistors (FETs) for power switching.

The H11A3FR2VM Application Field and Working Principle

The H11A3FR2VM is a non-zero crossing, AC to DC optocoupler, featuring a photovoltaic output and a NPN transistor output. It is designed to provide electrical isolation between the logic and main power stages of a system, a high input-to-output voltage drop, and low leakage current. The isolation voltage of the optoisolator is equal to or greater than 5,000V DC. The switching current of the output is between 40 mA and 200 mA.

The working principle of the H11A3FR2VM is similar to most optoisolators, with the primary component being an LED. When the LED component is energized, an electric current passes through it and produces light, which in turn activates the photovoltaic (PV) element that generates an output voltage. This voltage in turn is used to energize the NPN transistors (factory-connected to the PV element) to generate the output current.

The H11A3FR2VM can be used in numerous applications, primarily as a dimmable remote control for light dimmers and power supplies, or as an analog signal transducer that converts a digital signal to an analog one. It is also used in temperature control systems, frequency control systems, and as a solid state switch or relay.

Conclusion

The H11A3FR2VM is an effective solution for providing signal conversion, isolation, and high input-to-output voltage drop, ideal for two-wire systems such as remote controls, alarms, and instruments. It is also used in combination with Field-Effect Transistors (FETs) for power switching, and is suitable for applications such as dimmable remotes, temperature control systems, frequency control systems, and as a solid state switch or relay. In addition to the H11A3FR2VM, there are other optoisolators that can be used based on the specific requirements of the application.
