Description
The 4N25 is an optocoupler for general purpose applications. It contains a light emitting diode optically coupled
to a photo-transistor. It is packaged in a 6-pin DIP package and available in wide-lead spacing option and lead
bend SMD option. Response time, tr, is typically 3 µs and
minimum CTR is 20% at input current of 10 mA.
Applications
• I/O interfaces for computers
• System appliances, measuring instruments
• Signal transmission between circuits of different
potentials and impedances
Features
• Response time (tr: typ., 3 µs at VCE = 10 V, IC = 2 mA, RL = 100 Ω)
• Current Transfer Ratio (CTR: min. 20% at IF = 10 mA,
VCE = 10 V)
• Input-output isolation voltage (Viso = 2500 Vrms)
• Dual-in-line package
• UL approved
• CSA approved
• IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-2 approved
• Options available:
– Leads with 0.4" (10.16 mm) spacing (W00)
– Leads bends for surface mounting (300)
– Tape and reel for SMD (500) – IEC/EN/DIN EN 60747-5-2 approvals (060)
CAUTION: It is advised that normal static precautions be taken in handling and assembly
of this component to prevent damage and/or degradation which may be induced by ESD.
4N25 is UL Recognized with 2500 Vrms for 1 minute per UL1577 and is approved under CSA Component Acceptance
