IC FOR OPTO DETECTOR

close as possible to the pin to prevent noise. Also, in case of high emission-currents, blocking
capacitors against V
CC
are useful.
The comparator signals are taken over into the flip–flops with the positive slope of the IRD–signal.
Connections pins: IND, RD, RH
OUTPUT STAGES:
There are two antivalent output drivers for external PNP Darlington transistors with a current
limitation and periodical shut down in case of overload (short circuit protection).
The output signal of the internal flip-flop A (depending on VT
A
) controls the output drivers. They
consist of current sources which are attached to an internal pull-up resistor. The voltage drop at the
resistor RS, produced by the loading current, is compared with an internal voltage and is used to
limit the loading current. When limitation occurs, the external capacitor C
SC
is discharged and by
reaching the internal threshold both output drivers are switched off. After loading the capacitor C
SC
is discharged and by reaching the threshold both output drivers are switched off. After charging the
capacitor C
SC
to the upper threshold the output stages are enabled again.
Unused outputs have to be attached to V
CC
. External PNP Darlington transistors have to be used so
that the necessary potential (V
CC
–2
×
V
BE
) is available at the outputs in order to limit the loading
current.
Connection pins : QO, QC, RS, CSC
