Optoisolators are a class of electronic components which are designed to allow the transmission of electrical signals between two isolated circuits. One of the most commonly used optoisolator devices is the IL252-X017, which is a transistor, photovoltaic output optoisolator. It offers galvanic isolation between two connected circuits and is designed to be used in a wide range of applications. This article will provide an overview of the IL252-X017’s working principles and potential application fields.

Overview

The IL252-X017 optoisolator is designed to provide an electrical connection between two circuits which are isolated from one another. It operates by using a photovoltaic output, which is the output current generated when light is incident on the photocathode of a phototransistor. This current is then fed into a high impedance base-emitter junction, thus creating a current gain in the order of magnitude of the photovoltaic current. The photo-transistor output is then directed at either a load or some other type of electrical signal.

Working Principle

The IL252-X017 optoisolator operates on a ‘photovoltaic switching’ principle. This means that when a light is shone on the phototransistor’s photocathode, an electrical current is generated which is then fed into a high impedance base-emitter junction. This junction, when sufficiently biased, produces an output current which is larger than the photovoltaic current, allowing an electrical signal to be transmitted between the two circuits. The electrical isolation between the two circuits is achieved by using an optically insulating layer between the phototransistor and the base-emitter junction. This layer serves to prevent the current from being transmitted directly, and thus enables an isolated electrical connection to be established.

Application Fields

The IL252-X017 optoisolator can be used in a variety of applications. It is particularly suitable for industrial applications, where galvanic isolation of electrical signals is required, such as in signal transmission and process control. It can also be used in medical instrumentation, test equipment, and electrical safety equipment.

The IL252-X017 optoisolator also offers significant advantages when used in telecommunication applications. It is used to transmit high speed, high accuracy level user data over long distances. The ability to isolate the data signals from any potential interference is a great benefit in this context. In addition, the photovoltaic output allows the device to be completely galvanically isolated, meaning that no physical connection is required between the two circuits.

Conclusion

The IL252-X017 optoisolator is a transistor, photovoltaic output optoisolator which offers a range of advantages and is suitable for a variety of applications. Its ability to provide galvanic isolation between two connected circuits, as well as its photovoltaic output, make it an extremely useful device for a range of different industries, such as telecommunications, industrial processes and medical instrumentation.
