Optoisolators are essentially electrical isolation devices that use light to couple an input circuit with an output circuit. The light signal is generated by an LED in the input circuit, which is usually triggered by the input signal, such as a voltage or current. The light is focused onto a photo-sensitive device in the output circuit, such as a photo-transistor, a photovoltaic sensor, or a CCD. The photo-sensitive device converts the light signal into an electrical output signal in the output circuit. PC3H7A optoisolators are of the transistor, photovoltaic output type.

PC3H7A Application Field

PC3H7A optoisolators are typically used in signal isolation applications, especially those requiring low current sensing. The PC3H7A can be used in various systems for providing electrical isolation between input and output circuits. It is most commonly used in system monitoring and control circuits, as well as medical device and communication systems.

PC3H7A Working Principle

The working principle of the PC3H7A optoisolator is based on the transfer of a low-voltage input signal, such as a voltage or current, via a light signal. The light signal is generated by an LED in the input circuit, which is triggered by the input signal. The emitted light from the LED is focused onto a photo-sensitive device in the output circuit, such as a photo-transistor or a photovoltaic sensor, which converts the light signal into an electrical output signal in the output circuit. As light signals are used for transferring input signals between circuits, electrical isolation is achieved between the input and output circuits, preventing any electrical interference.

PC3H7A Typical Characteristics

The PC3H7A optoisolator has some typical characteristics such as voltage isolation, current transfer ratio (CTR), and responsitivity. The voltage isolation is the maximum voltage that can be applied across the device without significant damage to the device. This is typically between 1500 to 3000 Volts RMS. The current transfer ratio (CTR) is the ratio between the current of the output signal and the current of the input signal. It is typically between 60% to 400%. The responsitivity is the minimum light level at which the device is able to detect a signal, and is typically between 0.38 to 0.50 mA/lux.

PC3H7A Advantages

PC3H7A optoisolator components are widely used in signal isolation applications due to its many advantages. Firstly, it offers a high isolation voltage, which ensures that the input and output circuits do not interact with each other. Secondly, it offers a fast response time, enabling a quick and reliable signal transfer at frequencies up to 150kHz. Thirdly, it is insensitive to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI), preventing any electrical interference. Finally, it is a low-cost device that is easy to incorporate into any system.
