TLP2168

TOSHIBA · Logic Output Optoisolators · SO-8

TLP2168 from TOSHIBA, in a SO-8. 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 1 input LED anode for channel 1; requires forward current of 7.5 to 14 mA for reliable operation
2 Cathode 1 input LED cathode for channel 1; common return path for LED input stage
3 Cathode 2 input LED cathode for channel 2; common return path for LED input stage
4 Anode 2 input LED anode for channel 2; requires forward current of 7.5 to 14 mA for reliable operation
5 GND power_in Ground reference for internal circuitry and output driver stages
6 VO2 output Open-collector output for channel 2, inverter logic type, sinking output to ground
7 VO1 output Open-collector output for channel 1, inverter logic type, sinking output to ground
8 VCC power_in Power supply voltage input, 2.7 to 5.5 V nominal with 0.1 µF bypass capacitor required to pin 5
