PC817 Optocoupler Through Hole DIP-4

About PC817 Optocoupler Through Hole DIP-4:

The PC817 is a popular optocoupler, also known as an optical coupler or isolator, that provides electrical isolation between two circuits. It achieves this by using an LED (light-emitting diode) to transmit light to a phototransistor on the other side of the device. This isolation barrier prevents high voltages or transients on one side of the circuit from affecting the other side.

Key Features of PC817 Optocoupler Through Hole – DIP-4:

• High isolation voltage (4000 V Peak)
