Cautions for Use of PhotoIC Couplers
SAFETY WARNINGS
● Do not use the product under conditions that
exceed the range of its specifications. It may cause
overheating, smoke, or fire.
● Do not touch the recharging unit while the power
is on. There is a danger of electrical shock. Be sure
to turn off the power when performing mounting,
maintenance, or repair operations on the device
( including connecting parts such as the terminal
board and socket ).
● Check the connection diagrams in the catalog and
be sure to connect the terminals correctly. Erroneous
connections could lead to unexpected operating
errors, overheating, or fire.
■ Please visit our Automation Controls Products
web site and refer to the caution for use and
the explanations of technical terms.
■ Deterioration and destruction caused by
discharge of static electricity
■ About derating design
Derating is significant factor concerning on reliable design
( product life ). When the coupler is used continuously at
upper limit of absolute maximum ratings ( high temperature,
high humidity, high current, high voltage, etc. ), reliability
may be lower significantly. Therefore, please derate
sufficiently below the absolute maximum ratings and
evaluate the coupler under the actual condition.
■ Wire connection
Please check the internal connection diagram in the catalog
or specification, and connect the terminals correctly. If device
is energized with short-circuit or any wrong connection,
it may cause circuit damage by inner parts destruction,
unexpected malfunction, abnormal heat, fire, and so on.
■ Bypass capacitor
Bypass capacitor of 0.1 µF is used between Vcc and GND
near the coupler. Also, ensure that the distance between
the leads of the coupler and capacitor is no more than 10
mm. Failure to provide the bypass may impair the switching
property.
This phenomenon is generally called static electricity
destruction, and occurs when static electricity generated by
various factors is discharged while the coupler terminals are
in contact, producing internal destruction of the element.
To prevent problems from static electricity, the following
precautions and measures should be taken when using your
device.
1) Employees handling the coupler should wear anti-static
clothing and should be grounded through protective
resistance of 500 kΩ to 1 MΩ.
2) A conductive metal sheet should be placed over the
worktable. Measuring instruments and jigs should be
grounded.
3) When using soldering irons, either use irons with low
leakage current, or ground the tip of the soldering
iron. ( Use of low-voltage soldering irons is also
recommended. )
4) Devices and equipment used in assembly should also
be grounded.
5) When packing printed circuit boards and equipment,
avoid using high-polymer materials such as foam
styrene, plastic, and other materials which carry an
electrostatic charge.
6) When storing or transporting the coupler, the
environment should not be conducive to generating
static electricity ( for instance, the humidity should be
between 45 and 60 % ), and the coupler should be
protected using conductive packing materials.
■ Caution for applying supply voltage
Just after supplying voltage, please note that current in
the coupler will be not constant until circuit stability.

Cautions for Use of PhotoIC couplers
■ Soldering
■ Cleaning solvents compatibility
① IR ( Infrared reflow ) soldering method
In case of automatic soldering, following conditions
should be observed.
( recommended condition reflow: Max. 2 times,
measurement point: soldering lead )
Cleaning the solder flux should use the immersion washing
with an cleaning solvent ( Asahiklin AK-225 ). If you have
to use ultrasonic cleaning, please adopt the following
conditions and check that there are no problems in the
actual usage.
• Frequency
: 27 to 29 kHz
• Ultrasonic output: No greater than 0.25 W/cm2*
• Cleaning time
: 30 s or less
• Others
: Float PC board and the device in
cleaning solvent to prevent from
contacting the ultrasonic vibrator.

■ Transportation and storage
1) Extreme vibration during transport may deform the lead
or damage the coupler. Please handle the outer and inner
boxes with care.
② Others soldering methods
Other soldering methods ( VPS, hot-air, hot plate,
laser heating, pulse heater, etc. ) affect the coupler
characteristics differently, please evaluate the coupler
under the actual usage.
2) Inadequate storage condition may degrade soldering,
appearance and characteristics.
The following storage conditions are recommended:
• Temperature: 0 to 45℃
• Humidity
: Max. 70 % RH
• Atmosphere : No harmful gasses such as sulfurous acid
gas and not dusty.
③ Manual soldering method
Soldering: Max. 350℃, within 3 s,
electrical power 30 to 60 W
■ Notes for mounting
1) When different kinds of packages are mounted on PC
board, the temperature rise at soldering lead is highly
dependent on package size. Therefore, please set the
lower temperature soldering condition than above
condition, and confirm the temperature condition of
actual usage before soldering.
2) When soldering condition is out of recommendation, the
coupler characteristics may be adversely affected. It may
occur package crack or bonding wire breaking because
of thermal expansion unconformity and resin strength
reduction. Please contact us about the propriety of the
condition.
3) Please confirm the heat stress by using actual board
because it may be changed by board condition or
manufacturing process condition.
3) In case the heat stress of soldering is applied to the
coupler which absorb moisture inside of its package, the
evaporation of the moisture increases the pressure inside
the package and it may cause the package blister or
crack. This coupler is sensitive to moisture and it is packed
in the sealed moisture-proof package. Please make sure
the following condition after unsealing.
*Please use the coupler immediately after unsealing.
( within 30 days at 0 to 30 ℃ and Max. 70% RH )
*If the coupler will be kept for a long time after unsealing,
please pack in the another moisture-proof package
containing silica gel and store. ( Please use within 90
days )
■ Water condensation
4) Solder creepage, wettability, or soldering strength will be
affected by the soldering condition or used solder type.
Please check them under the actual production condition
in detail.
5) Please apply coating when the coupler returns to the
room temperature.
Water condensation occurs when the ambient temperature
changes suddenly from a high temperature to low
temperature at high humidity, or the coupler is suddenly
transferred from a low ambient temperature to a high
temperature and humidity.
Condensation causes the failures such as insulation
deterioration. Panasonic Industry does not guarantee the
failures caused by water condensation.
The heat conduction by the equipment the coupler
is mounted may accelerate inside equipment water
condensation. Please confirm no that there are condensation
in the worst condition of the actual usage.
( Special attention should be paid when high temperature
heating parts are close to the coupler. )
