These families include the 4N35, 4N36, 4N37, 4N38 couplers. Each optocoupler consists of gallium arsenide infrared LED and a silicon NPN phototransistor. These couplers are Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed to comply with a 5300 VRMS isolation test voltage. This isolation performance is accomplished through Vishay double molding isolation manufacturing process. Comliance to DIN EN 60747-5-5 partial discharge isolation specification is available for these families by ordering option 1. These isolation processes and the Vishay ISO9001 quality program results in the highest isolation performance available for a commecial 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. * Telephone ring detection * Logic ground isolation * Logic coupling with high frequency noise rejection AGENCY APPROVALS * Underwriters laboratory file no.
