Fairchild Semiconductor International (South Portland, ME) introduced its new FOD2200, a low-input, current logic, gate optocoupler that provides high isolation voltage (5 kVrms) over a wide power supply voltage range. The high common-mode rejection of 1 kV/µs and hysteresis output allows the FOD2200 to target high-speed applications in industrial environments, including a variety of solutions for ac-dc conversion, dc-ac conversion, motion and speed control, isolation, data acquisition, indicators and displays, and dc-dc conversion.
The FOD2200’s low IF (1.6 mA, minimum) and wide VCC range (4.5 V to 20 V) not only lowers power consumption, but makes it compatible with TTL, LSTTL and CMOS logic. It also offers a 0 °C to 85 °C range and a maximum propagation delay of 300 ns. The three-state output of the FOD2200 reduces additional circuit board components by eliminating the need for a pull-up resistor.
The DIP-8 package is available in three lead-form options for either through-hole or surface-mount applications. Available now, the FOD2200 is priced $1.60 each for 1,000-piece quantities, and delivery is eight weeks ARO.
