Vishay Intertech · Transistor, Photovoltaic Output Optoisolators · DIP-4
SFH617A-2 from Vishay Intertech, 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 | A | passive | Anode of the GaAs infrared emitter; forward current IF is rated up to 60 mA and reverse voltage VR up to 6 V. |
| 2 | C | passive | Cathode of the GaAs infrared emitter; forward surge current is rated up to 2.5 A for tp ≤ 10 µs and LED power dissipation up to 70 mW at 25 °C. |
| 3 | E | passive | Emitter of the silicon planar phototransistor; emitter-collector voltage VECO is rated up to 7 V. |
| 4 | C | passive | Collector of the silicon planar phototransistor; collector-emitter voltage VCEO is rated up to 70 V and collector current IC up to 50 mA. |
