GlobalOptoisolator

The 4N25, 4N26, 4N27 and 4N28 devices consist of a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a monolithic silicon phototransistor detector. Most Economical Optoisolator Choice for Medium Speed, Switching Applications Meets or Exceeds All JEDEC Registered Specifications To order devices that are tested and marked per VDE 0884 requirements, the suffix V must be included at end of part number. VDE 0884 is a test option.
