Dual Optocouplers provide an optically means of switching control circuits. Shunt resistors can be used to adjust the threshold currents required to activate the output circuitry. Mouser offers inventory, pricing, & datasheets for Logic Output Optocouplers. The FOD8012A is a half duplex, bi-directional, highspeed logic gate Optocoupler, which supports isolated communications allowing digital signals to communicate between systems without conducting ground loops or hazardous voltages. It utilizes Fairchild's patented coplanar packaging technology. An optocoupler—also known as an optoisolator or photocoupler—is an electrical component designed to transmit signals between two isolated circuits using light. It typically consists of a light-emitting diode (LED) on the input side and a photodetector (usually a phototransistor, photodiode, or. The SFH675x are single and dual channel 10 MBd optocouplers utilizing a high efficient input LED coupled with an integrated optical photodiode IC detector.
