4N30 from Everlight Elec, in a DIP-6. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet (extract_pins, cross-checked by a second model); symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.
Pinout
| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | passive | Infrared LED anode; the input forward current is rated 60 mA DC, 1 A peak for 1 µs pulses, with reverse voltage limited to 6 V. |
| 2 | Cathode | passive | Infrared LED cathode, the return for the input diode; the input reverse voltage limit is 6 V. |
| 3 | No Connection | unconnected | Pin is listed as No Connection in the pin configuration and carries no function on this package. |
| 4 | Emitter | passive | Photodarlington emitter; the emitter-collector voltage is rated 7 V maximum (VECO). |
| 5 | Collector | passive | Photodarlington collector; the collector-emitter voltage is rated 55 V maximum (VCEO) and collector-base voltage 55 V maximum (VCBO). |
| 6 | Base | passive | Photodarlington base pin as listed in the pin configuration; the datasheet gives no separate base voltage or current limit. |
