Product details

5000Vrms isolation in an 8-SMD gull-wing package

The Renesas NEPOC PS8501L2-AX is a single-channel DC-input optocoupler with a transistor-with-base output, rated for 5000Vrms isolation. It comes in an 8-SMD gull-wing package suited for surface-mount assembly.

Switching speed and drive requirements

Typical turn-on time is 220ns and turn-off is 350ns, making it fast enough for isolated serial interfaces (e.g., SPI, RS-485) and gate-drive applications where propagation delay matters. The minimum current transfer ratio is 15% at 16mA forward current — design the input drive stage to supply at least that forward current to guarantee the output can sink 8mA per channel at 35V collector-emitter maximum.

Temperature grade and deployment environments

The 5000Vrms isolation supports reinforced insulation requirements in medical equipment and high-voltage power conversion stages.
