Isolation barrier and input flexibility
The TLP292(Y-TPL,E is a single-channel transistor-output optoisolator from Toshiba, rated for 3750Vrms isolation (cite:). That isolation voltage suits it for galvanic separation in industrial controls, PLC I/O modules, and power-supply feedback loops where the primary and secondary must not share a ground path. Input side accepts both AC and DC drive (cite:), so the LED conducts on either polarity — handy when the signal source is a bipolar AC line or a DC logic level without worrying about orientation.
Temperature range and switching speed
Full military-grade temperature span of -55°C to 125°C (cite:) means this part holds its CTR and isolation through cold starts and hot enclosures — think outdoor telecom cabinets or engine-bay-adjacent electronics. Typical rise and fall times are 2 µs and 3 µs respectively (cite:), with turn-on and turn-off both at 3 µs (cite:).
Output drive and saturation
The phototransistor can sink up to 50 mA continuous per channel (cite:) with a maximum Vce saturation of 300 mV (cite:). That 300 mV drop at 50 mA keeps the output low enough to drive a 5 V logic input directly without a level shifter.
Package and rework considerations
ROHS3 compliant (cite:) — no lead, no conflict minerals concern.
