6N137M

UMW · Logic Output Optoisolators · DIP-8

6N137M from UMW, in a DIP-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 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to a convenient net.
2 VF+ (Anode) input LED anode of the input emitter. Drive with forward current IF (typ. 6.3-15 mA for high-level operation, absolute max IF = 50 mA). Typical VF = 1.4 V at IF = 10 mA.
3 VF- (Cathode) input LED cathode of the input emitter. Return path for LED forward current. Absolute maximum reverse input voltage VR = 5 V.
4 NC unconnected No internal connection. Leave floating or tie to a convenient net.
5 GND power_in Output-side ground reference for the detector logic gate. Bypass VCC to this pin with a local decoupling capacitor.
6 VO output Open-collector logic gate output. Requires an external pull-up resistor to VCC. Absolute max VO = 7 V, IO = 50 mA; guaranteed sink of 13 mA (fan-out of 8 TTL loads). Supports wired-OR with other open-collector outputs.
7 VE input Strobe/Enable input for the output logic gate. VEH >= 2 V enables output (data passes); VEL <= 0.8 V forces output high. Must not exceed VCC by more than 500 mV (abs max 5.5 V).
8 VCC power_in Output-side positive supply. Recommended 4.5-5.5 V; absolute max 7 V. Decouple to GND (pin 5) with a local ceramic capacitor near the device.
