Description
These diode-transistor optocoup-
lers use an insulating layer
between a LED and an integrated
photodetector to provide elec-
trical insulation between input
and output. Separate connections
for the photodiode bias and
output-transistor collector
increase the speed up to a
hundred times that of a conven-
tional phototransistor coupler by
reducing the base-collector
capacitance.

The HCPL-4502, HCPL-0452,
and HCNW4502 provide the
electrical and switching
performance of the 6N136,
HCPL-0501, and HCNW136 with
increased ESD protection.
The HCPL-4503, HCPL-0453,
and HCNW4503 are similar to the
HCPL-4502, HCPL-0452, and
HCNW4502 optocouplers but
have increased common mode
transient immunity of 15 kV/µs
minimum at VCM = 1500 V
guaranteed.
These single channel optocoup-
lers are available in 8-Pin DIP,
SO-8 and Widebody package
configurations.
The 6N135, HCPL-0500, and
HCNW135 are for use in TTL/
CMOS, TTL/LSTTL or wide
bandwidth analog applications.
Current transfer ratio (CTR) for
these devices is 7% minimum at
IF= 16 mA.
The 6N136, HCPL-2502,
HCPL-0501, and HCNW136 are
designed for high speed TTL/TTL
applications. A standard 16 mA

Notes:
1. Derate linearly above 70°C free-air temperature at a rate of 0.8 mA/°C (8-Pin DIP).
Derate linearly above 85°C free-air temperature at a rate of 0.5 mA/°C (SO-8).
2. Derate linearly above 70°C free-air temperature at a rate of 1.6 mA/°C (8-Pin DIP).
Derate linearly above 85°C free-air temperature at a rate of 1.0 mA/°C (SO-8).
3. Derate linearly above 70°C free-air temperature at a rate of 0.9 mW/°C (8-Pin DIP).
Derate linearly above 85°C free-air temperature at a rate of 1.1 mW/°C (SO-8).
4. Derate linearly above 70°C free-air temperature at a rate of 2.0 mW/°C (8-Pin DIP).
Derate linearly above 85°C free-air temperature at a rate of 2.3 mW/°C (SO-8).
5. CURRENT TRANSFER RATIO in percent is defined as the ratio of output collector current, IO, to the forward LED input current, IF,
times 100.
6. Device considered a two-terminal device: Pins 1, 2, 3, and 4 shorted together and Pins 5, 6, 7, and 8 shorted together.
7. Common mode transient immunity in a Logic High level is the maximum tolerable (positive) dVCM/dt on the leading edge of the
common mode pulse signal, V
CM, to assure that the output will remain in a Logic High state (i.e., VO > 2.0 V). Common mode
transient immunity in a Logic Low level is the maximum tolerable (negative) dVCM/dt on the trailing edge of the common mode pulse
signal, VCM, to assure that the output will remain in a Logic Low state (i.e., VO < 0.8 V).
8. The 1.9 k load represents 1 TTL unit load of 1.6 mA and the 5.6 k pull-up resistor.
9. The 4.1 k load represents 1 LSTTL unit load of 0.36 mA and 6.1 k pull-up resistor.
10. The frequency at which the ac output voltage is 3 dB below its mid-frequency value.
11. The JEDEC registration for the 6N136 specifies a minimum CTR of 15%. Agilent guarantees a minimum CTR of 19%.
12. See Option 020 data sheet for more information.
13. Use of a 0.1 µf bypass capacitor connected between pins 5 and 8 is recommended.
14. In accordance with UL 1577, each optocoupler is proof tested by applying an insulation test voltage 4500 V rms for 1 second
(leakage detection current limit, II-O 5 µA). This test is performed before the 100% Production test shown in the IEC/EN/DIN EN
60747-5-2 Insulation Related Characteristics Table if applicable.
15. In accordance with UL 1577, each optocoupler is proof tested by applying an insulation test voltage 6000 V rms for 1 second
(leakage detection current limit, II-O 5 µA). This test is performed before the 100% Production test shown in the IEC/EN/DIN EN
60747-5-2 Insulation Related Characteristics Table if applicable.
16. This rating is equally validated by an equivalent ac proof test.
