BRT23F

Vishay Intertech · Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators · DIP-6

BRT23F from Vishay Intertech, 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 A passive Anode of the GaAs IRLED input; trigger current IFT is max 1.2 mA for F versions (BRT23F), with absolute maximum forward current of 60 mA.
2 C passive Cathode of the GaAs IRLED input; reverse voltage limited to 6 V.
3 NC unconnected No internal connection.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection.
5 MT1 passive Main terminal 1 of the zero-crossing phototriac output, rated for 300 mA on-state RMS current and up to 800 V peak off-state voltage for BRT23.
6 MT2 passive Main terminal 2 of the zero-crossing phototriac output, rated for 300 mA on-state RMS current and up to 800 V peak off-state voltage for BRT23.

CAD (KiCad official)

  • Symbol: BRT23F
  • Footprint: Package_DIP:DIP-6_W7.62mm
  • 3D model: DIP-6 (KiCad packages3D, STEP)
  • 3D model files: brt23f-etched.step / brt23f-etched.glb carry the MPN laser-etched on the die in a toggleable Adom.LaserEtch group (Fusion-ready); brt23f.step / brt23f.glb are the bare package body.
