PS2911-1
HIGH CTR, 4-PIN ULTRA SMALL PACKAGE
FLAT-LEAD PHOTOCOUPLER
−NEPOC
Series−
DESCRIPTION
The PS2911-1 is an optically coupled isolator containing a GaAs light emitting diode and an NPN silicon
phototransistor in one package for high density mounting applications.
An ultra small flat-lead package has been provided which realizes a reduction in mounting area of about 30%
compared with the PS28xx series.
FEATURES
• Ultra small flat-lead package (4.6 (L)
×
2.5 (W)
×
2.1 (H) mm)
• High current transfer ratio (CTR = 200% TYP. @ I
F
= 1 mA, V
CE
= 5 V)
• High isolation voltage (BV = 2 500 Vr.m.s.)
• Ordering number of taping product: PS2911-1-F3, F4: 3 500 pcs/reel
APPLICATIONS
• DC/DC converter
• Modem/PC card

CAUTIONS REGARDING NOISE
Be aware that when voltage is applied suddenly between the photocoupler’s input and output or between
corrector-emitters at startup, the output side may enter the on state, even if the voltage is within the absolute
maximum ratings.
