Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators CNY17-4X009

The CNY17 optocoupler features a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode coupled with a silicon NPN phototransistor, allowing for the transmission of signal information while ensuring high electrical isolation between input and output. It is suitable for replacing relays and transformers in various digital and analog applications, including CRT modulation. This device has an isolation test voltage of 5000 V_RMS and operates within a temperature range of -55 to +110 °C. The optocoupler is available in a standard dual-in-line package (DIP-6) and is compliant with multiple safety standards, including UL, cUL, and VDE. The CNY17 offers a current transfer ratio (CTR) ranging from 40% to 320%, depending on the specific variant, and has a maximum collector current of 50 mA. It supports a forward current of up to 60 mA and features a maximum power dissipation of 250 mW. The device is also RoHS compliant, making it suitable for environmentally conscious designs.
