Electronics Optoelectronics optocoupler phototransistorsWüRTH ELEKTRONIK WL-OCPT optocoupler phototransistors family includes the DIP-8 design, a two-channel device with eight pins. This design contains two circuits inside a single component constructed from two input LEDs and two output phototransistors, therefore two separate circuits can be controlled with a single component. Product features a stable current transfer ratio (CTR) over the entire operating temperature range (-55 to +110°C). The DIN-EN-60747-5-5-certified components have an insulation voltage of 5000V, a collector-emitter voltage of 80V and a maximum forward current of 60mA.
