CNY17-2

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

CNY17-2 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 gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode; the input diode has a reverse voltage limit of 6 V and a forward current limit of 60 mA.
2 C passive Cathode of the infrared emitting diode (input side), which is optically coupled to the phototransistor and isolated from the output at 5000 VRMS.
3 NC unconnected No connection; the datasheet pin diagram marks this pin NC.
4 E passive Emitter of the silicon NPN phototransistor output; the output emitter-base breakdown voltage is 7 V and the total power dissipation is 150 mW for the output section.
5 C passive Collector of the silicon NPN phototransistor output; collector-emitter breakdown voltage is 70 V and collector current is limited to 50 mA DC (100 mA for tp/T = 0.5, tp ≤ 10 ms).
6 B passive Base connection of the silicon NPN phototransistor, brought out to the package as stated in the datasheet title 'with Base Connection'; no separate base voltage or current limit is given.
