DESCRIPTION

This data sheet presents ﬁve families of Inﬁneon Industry Standard

Single Channel Phototransistor Couplers. These families include the

4N25/26/27/28 types, the 4N35/36/37/38 couplers, the H11A1/A2/

A3/A4/A5, the MCT2/2E, and MCT270/271/272/273/274/275/276/

277 devices.Each optocoupler consists of Gallium Arsenide infra-

red LED and a silicon NPN phototransistor.

These couplers are Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed to comply

with a 5300 V

RMS

Isolation Test Voltage. This isolation performance

is accomplished through Inﬁneon double molding isolation manu-

facturing process. Compliance to VDE 0884 partial discharge isola-

tion speciﬁcation is available for these families by ordering option 1.

Phototransistor gain stability, in the presence of high isolation volt-

ages, is insured by incorporating a TRansparent lOn Shield

(TRIOS)

on the phototransistor substrate. These isolation pro-

cesses and the Inﬁneon IS09001 Quality program results in the

highest isolation performance available for a commercial plastic

phototransistor optocoupler.

The devices are available in lead formed conﬁguration suitable for

surface mounting and are available either on tape and reel, or in

standard tube shipping containers.
