DESCRIPTION
The VOL617A has a GaAs infrared emitting diode emitter,
which is optically coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor
detector, and is incorporated in a 4 pin LSOP wide body
package.
It features a high current transfer ratio, low coupling
capacitance, and high isolation voltage.
The coupling device is designed for signal transmission
between two electrically separated circuits.
