Optoisolators, also known as optocouplers, combine an LED emitter and a photodetector to isolate two circuits. The MCT2E optoisolator is a single channel optoisolator with a transistor output. It is built with a 660nm LED emitter and a phototransistor detector mounted in a plastic 4-pin package. It is suitable for use in analog and digital circuits due to its extremely low forward current thresold and high isolation voltage.

The typical application of MCT2E optoisolator is obtaining digital control information when isolation between the driving circuit and the load circuit is required, like a lighting, relay, incremental encoder, etc. It can also be applied in accessing control circuits which contain hazardous voltages, or transferring data signals over long distances without degradation in signal quality.

The working principals of MCT2E optoisolator can be broken down into three main steps. Firstly, the power input in the form of the forward current flows through an LED into the phototransistor detector. Secondly, the phototransistor detector weakly gathers the light emitted by the LED and convert the light energy into electric energy. Lastly, the electric energy inputs into the load, creating the electronic commutation.

Another way to describe the working principal of MCT2E optoisolator is by imagining two light barriers between the input and output circuits. The LED emits light at the input end of the light barriers and the light is detected at the output end by a phototransistor. When ON, the LED illuminates the phototransistor, which amplifies the output current and conducts current flows to the load.

In summary, the MCT2E optoisolator is an effective single channel optoisolator with a transistor output. Its 660nm LED emitter and phototransistor detector are suited for use in various analog and digital circuits, such as lighting control, relay control, incremental encoder, etc. It is very useful in accessing control circuits which contain hazardous voltages or transferring data signals over long distances without degradation in signal quality. The working principals of MCT2E optoisolator involves the forwarding current flowing through an LED into the phototransistor detector, conversion of light energy into electric energy, and the electric energy inputs into the load, creating the electronic commutation.
