Hermetically Sealed, Transistor Output Optocouplers
for Analog and Digital Applications
Data Sheet
Description
These units are single-, dual-, and quad-channel, hermetically
sealed optocouplers. The products are capable of operation
and storage over the full military temperature range and can
be purchased as either Commercial product or with full
MIL-PRF-38534 Class Level H or K testing or from the
appropriate DLA Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD). All
devices are manufactured and tested on a MIL-PRF-38534
certified line and Class H and K devices are included in the DLA
Qualified Manufacturers List QML-38534 for Hybrid
Microcircuits.
CAUTION
It is advised that normal static precautions be
taken in handling and assembly of this
component to prevent damage and/or
degradation which may be induced by ESD.

Each channel contains a GaAsP light emitting diode that is
optically coupled to an integrated photon detector. Separate
connections for the photodiodes and output transistor
collectors improve the speed up to one-hundred times that of
a conventional phototransistor optocoupler by reducing the
base-collector capacitance.
These devices are suitable for wide-bandwidth analog
applications, as well as for interfacing TTL to LSTTL or CMOS.
Current Transfer Ratio (CTR) is 9% minimum at I
F
= 16 mA. The
18V V
CC
capability enables the designer to interface any TTL
family to CMOS. The availability of the base lead allows
optimized gain/bandwidth adjustment in analog applications.
The shallow depth of the IC photodiode provides better
radiation immunity than conventional phototransistor
couplers.
Package styles for these parts are 8- and 16-pin DIP
through-hole (case outlines P and E, respectively), 16-pin DIP
flat pack (case outline F), and leadless ceramic chip carrier (case
outline 2). Devices may be purchased with a variety of lead
bend and plating options, see the selection guide table for
details. Standard Microcircuit Drawing (SMD) parts are
available for each package and lead style.
Because the same functional die (emitters and detectors) are
used for each channel of each device listed in this data sheet,
absolute maximum ratings, recommended operating
conditions, electrical specifications, and performance
characteristics shown in the figures are identical for all parts.
Occasional exceptions exist due to package variations and
limitations and are as noted. Additionally, the same package
assembly processes and materials are used in all devices. These
similarities give justification for the use of data obtained from
one part to represent other part’s performance for die related
reliability and certain limited radiation test results.
