High CMR, High Speed TTL Compatible Optocouplers
Data Sheet
Description
The 6N137, HCPL-26xx/06xx/4661, HCNW137/26x1 are
optically coupled gates that combine a GaAsP light emitting
diode and an integrated high gain photo detector. An enable
input allows the detector to be strobed. The output of the
detector IC is an open collector Schottky-clamped transistor.
The internal shield provides a guaranteed common mode
transient immunity specification up to 15,000 V/μs at Vcm =
1000 V.
This unique design provides maximum AC and DC circuit
isolation while achieving TTL compatibility. The optocoupler
AC and DC operational parameters are guaranteed from –40 °C
to +85 °C allowing troublefree system performance.

Data Sheet
Selection Guide
The 6N137, HCPL-26xx, HCPL-06xx, HCPL-4661, HCNW137, and HCNW26x1 are suitable for high speed logic interfacing,
input/output buffering, as line receivers in environments that conventional line receivers cannot tolerate and are recommended for
use in extremely high ground or induced noise environments.
