IXYS IC Division linear optocouplers features an infrared LED optically coupled with two photodiodes. One feedback (input) photodiode is used to generate a control signal that provides a servomechanism to the LED drive current, thus compensating for the LED's nonlinear time and temperature characteristics. The other (output) photodiode provides an output signal that is linear with respect to the servo LED current. The devices feature wide bandwidth, high input to output isolation, and excellent servo linearity. |
