DESCRIPTION

The VOH1016A is a single channel 1 MBd optocoupler

utilizing a high efficient input LED coupled with an integrated

optical photodiode IC detector. The detector has an

open collector transistor output with Schmitt-Trigger

functionality. The low turn-on threshold and low supply

current together with a guaranteed common mode transient

immunity of 10 kV/μs makes the VOH1016A to a perfect

solution for galvanic noise isolation or to break up ground

loops in digital applications. The wide power supply range

up to 15 V enables isolated level shifting in applications

using different voltage domains.
