Optoisolators are electronic components designed to provide electrical isolation between two ports. They typically contain a light emitting diode (LED) on the input side, and a phototransistor on the output side, providing a high degree of isolation. The MOC8020S is one such type of optoisolator specifically designed for transistor, photovoltaic output applications. This article will discuss the MOC8020S application field and its working principle.

The MOC8020S is a 6 pin single-in-line optoisolator package comprising of an infrared emitting diode (IRED) and a phototransistor output. It is designed for both static and dynamic detection applications, including automotive, communications, industrial and consumer electronics. It has a fast rise and fall time, low power consumption, high voltage transfer ratio, low drive current, and wide voltage range. The MOC8020S is particularly useful for applications requiring the isolation of both digital and analogue signals.

In static detection applications, the MOC8020S works by detecting the presence of a low intensity light ray from an external source, then opening or closing an electrical circuit in response to its presence. Since the electrical connection is made when the light ray is present, the device can be used to detect the presence of a cash transaction at a vending machine, a credit card transaction at an ATM, or a smart card at a security gate, among many other applications. It is also particularly useful in detection applications requiring fast response time.

In dynamic detection applications, the MOC8020S is able to detect the presence of a beam of light in an alternating pattern. This type of detection is especially important for automotive safety systems, which rely on sensors that detect objects and objects that enter a vehicle’s path, such as pedestrians or animals. By opening or closing an electrical connection in response to the light beam, the MOC8020S can determine if an object is present in the vehicle’s path and then take necessary action, such as activating the brakes.

The working principle of the MOC8020S is based on the phototransistor, a type of photosensitive device that converts light energy into electrical energy. When the MOC8020S is exposed to light, the diode is activated, causing current to flow between its emitter and collector. This current then passes through the phototransistor, which converts it back into electrical energy. The electrical current then activates the output side of the optoisolator, thus completing the circuit and allowing the system to detect the presence of the light source.

In summary, optoisolators such as the MOC8020S are useful for providing electrical isolation between two ports. The MOC8020S is designed for both static and dynamic detection applications, including automotive, communications, industrial, and consumer electronics. Its working principle is based on the phototransistor, which converts light energy into electrical energy, thus allowing it to detect the presence of external light sources. As such, this optoisolator can be used for a variety of applications, such as cash transaction at a vending machine, credit card transactions at an ATM, or dynamic detection for automotive safety systems.
