DESCRIPTION
• DIN EN 60747-5-5 (VDE 0884-5), available with option 1
The SFH6916 has a GaAs infrared emitter, which is optically
coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor detector, and
is incorporated in a 16 pin 50 mil lead pitch miniflat
package. It features a high current transfer ratio, low
coupling capacitance, and high isolation voltage.
• BSI
• CQC GB4943.1-2011
• CQC GB8898-2011 (suitable for installation altitude below
2000 m)
• CSA
The coupling devices are designed for signal transmission
between two electrically separated circuits.
• FIMKO
