6N139-000E

Broadcom/AVAGO · Transistor Output Optocoupler · DIP-8

6N139-000E from Broadcom/AVAGO, in a DIP-8. 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 NC unconnected No internal connection.
2 ANODE input LED anode; recommended forward input current is 0.5 mA to 12 mA when on, and average forward current is limited to 20 mA.
3 CATHODE input LED cathode; reverse input voltage is limited to 5 V max and the LED is off when forward voltage is 0.8 V or less.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection.
5 GND power_in Output-side ground; a 0.1 µF bypass capacitor between pins 8 and 5 is recommended.
6 VO output Open-collector output that goes low when the LED is on, sinks up to 60 mA, and can be tied to VCC for photodarlington operation.
7 VB power_in Base access terminal for gain bandwidth adjustment; leave open normally, emitter-base reverse voltage (pins 5-7) is 0.5 V max.
8 VCC power_in Supply voltage of 4.5 V to 18 V recommended for the 6N139, with an absolute maximum of 18 V.
