# HCPL-817-06LE

**Broadcom Limited** · Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators · DIP-4

HCPL-817-06LE from Broadcom Limited, in a DIP-4. Pinout and pin descriptions extracted from the manufacturer datasheet by ds2sf; symbol, footprint, and 3D from KiCad-official CAD.

## Pinout

| Pin | Name | Type | Function |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | ANODE | passive | Anode of the input-side infrared LED. Drive with forward current IF (typ. VF = 1.2 V @ IF = 20 mA; absolute max IF = 50 mA, reverse VR = 6 V max). Recommended operating IF = 5 mA gives min CTR of 50%. |
| 2 | CATHODE | passive | Cathode of the input-side infrared LED. Current-return terminal of the LED; tie to input-side ground/return through the current-limiting resistor path. Reverse input voltage VR max = 6 V. |
| 3 | EMITTER | passive | Emitter of the output-side NPN phototransistor. Typically returned to the output-side ground. VECO max = 6 V (emitter-collector reverse breakdown BVECO min = 6 V). |
| 4 | COLLECTOR | passive | Collector of the output-side NPN phototransistor. Connect to output-side supply through a load resistor. VCEO max = 70 V, IC max = 50 mA, ICEO (dark current) max = 100 nA at VCE = 20 V; typical IC = 2.5-30 mA at IF = 5 mA, VCE = 5 V. |
