Active 5000Vrms isolated transistor-output coupler
The FOD2741BV is an onsemi single-channel optoisolator in the standard 8-DIP through-hole package, delivering 5000Vrms galvanic isolation between a DC-input LED and a phototransistor output. Current transfer ratio is specified from 100% to 200% at a forward current of 10mA — that spread tells you the minimum gain the phototransistor will deliver at nominal drive, which matters for logic-level translation and for worst-case margin in feedback loops.
Parametric anchor points for the BOM
The output transistor can sink up to 50mA continuous per channel, with a Vce saturation maximum of 400mV. Maximum output voltage is 30V, so this part works directly with 24V industrial buses without an extra level shifter on the collector side. Forward voltage is 1.5V max at rated If.
