PC816C

KTP · Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators · DIP-4

PC816C from KTP, in a DIP-4. 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 emitting diode anode; the input forward current is rated at 60 mA maximum and the reverse voltage at 6 V maximum.
2 Cathode passive Infrared emitting diode cathode; the input forward current is rated at 60 mA maximum and the reverse voltage at 6 V maximum.
3 Emitter passive Phototransistor emitter; the emitter-collector voltage is rated at 6 V maximum (VECO).
4 Collector passive Phototransistor collector; the collector-emitter voltage is rated at 35 V maximum (VCEO) and the collector current at 50 mA maximum.
