These isolation processes and the Vishay ISO9001
quality program results in the highest isolation perfor-
mance available for a commecial plastic phototransis-
tor optocoupler.
The devices are available in lead formed configura-
tion suitable for surface mounting and are available
either on tape and reel, or in standard tube shipping
containers.
Applications
AC mains detection
Reed relay driving
Switch mode power supply feedback
Telephone ring detection
Logic ground isolation
Note:
Designing with data sheet is cover in Application Note 45

This data sheet presents five families of Vishay Indus-
try Standard Single Channel Phototransistor Cou-
plers.These families include the 4N35/ 4N36/ 4N37/
4N38 couplers.
CTR > 100 %, DIP-6
CTR > 100 %, DIP-6
CTR > 20 %, DIP-6
Each optocoupler consists of gallium arsenide infra-
red LED and a silicon NPN phototransistor.

This isolation performance is accomplished through
Vishay double molding isolation manufacturing pro-
cess. Comliance to DIN EN 60747-5-2(VDE0884)/
DIN EN 60747-5-5 pending partial discharge isolation
specification is available for these families by ordering
option 1.
