Product details

Isolation voltage and CTR range for BOM-fit

The TLP385(E delivers 5000 Vrms isolation in a 4-lead SO-6 package — a reinforced-grade rating that meets IEC 60950-1 and IEC 62368-1 clearance requirements for mains-isolated power supplies and PLC digital inputs. Current transfer ratio spans 50% to 600% at 5 mA forward current, a 12:1 spread that forces the designer to verify worst-case output current at the minimum CTR corner, especially when driving a logic gate or a low-power relay.

Switching speed and output drive

Rise and fall times are 2 µs and 3 µs typical, with turn-on and turn-off both at 3 µs typical — fast enough for 100 kHz isolated data links or IGBT gate-drive fault feedback, but not for high-speed digital isolation above 1 Mbps. Output transistor is rated for 80 V collector-emitter and 50 mA continuous current, with a 300 mV max saturation voltage at the rated forward current — adequate for driving a 5 V or 24 V PLC input stage without an external buffer.

Temperature range and production status

Operating temperature from -55°C to 110°C covers industrial and outdoor telecom enclosures where ambient can reach 85°C with self-heating margin; the 110°C ceiling is above the typical 105°C limit of many standard optocouplers. Sourced per RFQ against your BOM quantity; confirm the 4-lead SO-6 footprint matches your PCB layout before committing.

Frequently asked questions

What is the current transfer ratio (CTR) range for TLP385(E)?

The CTR is specified at 5 mA forward current: minimum 50%, maximum 600%. That 12:1 spread means the design must tolerate a weak output at low CTR or add a pull-up resistor to guarantee the logic threshold.

Can TLP385(E be used as a replacement for TLP385?

Yes — the TLP385(E is a CTR-grade variant within the same TLP385 family. The (E suffix indicates a standard CTR bin (50-600%). It is pin-compatible and electrically identical to the base TLP385 part. The same applies to the (Y, (YH, and (GB suffixes, which have different CTR ranges.
