Optoisolators, known also as optocouplers, photocouplers, or optical isolators, are a type of electronic component used to isolate two portions of an electrical circuit. They can be used to prevent currents between the two portions from interacting, often helping with safety and reducing noise. An optoisolator, specifically a Triac, SCR output optoisolator (S2S3B), are used when an isolated output is required to control an AC load.

S2S3B Application Field: Common applications of S2S3B output optoisolators include LED lamp control, AC motor drives, AC appliance control, AC thermostat control, switching control systems, UPS systems, and entertainment systems. Through its isolating feature, S2S3B optoisolators allow digital circuits to control an AC load with little to no current passing between the two sides. They are designed to match the requirements of solid-state AC loads, such as those used in LED lighting, appliances, and entertainment systems.

S2S3B Working Principle: An S2S3B optoisolator is typically composed of two parts: a light-emitting diode (LED) on the input stage, and a TRIAC (TRIode for Alternating Current) or a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) on the output stage. When a control voltage is applied to the LED, it emits light, which is then picked up by the TRIAC or SCR. The light energy causes a current to flow through the TRIAC or SCR, which in turn switches the AC load on or off. This provides isolation between the input and output portions of the optoisolator.

In addition to the AC load switching, the TRIAC or SCR can also be used to control the current level, depending on the LED current applied. This is known as phase-angle control, and is very useful in controlling the speed of the load, for example, for motor speed control applications.

In comparison with other types of optoisolators, S2S3B optoisolators have some notable characteristics. Low LED current threshold, wide frequency range, good common mode transient immunity, compact form factor, short lead time, and high reliability are some of the advantages. The total harmonic distortion (THD) is also relatively low, and the peak detection rate can accommodate fast AC loads.

In conclusion, S2S3B optoisolators are well suited for applications where an isolated output is needed to control an AC load. They are versatile and easy to use, and offer a range of advantages unique to the type.
