• Switching power supplies
• Programmable logic controllers (PLCs)

Features

• High-speed data transmission
• Guaranteed AC and DC performance
• High common-mode transient immunity
• Wide supply voltage range
• Small footprint package

Benefits

• Provides reliable electrical isolation
• Protects sensitive circuits from damage
• Enables fast and accurate data transfer
• Reduces noise and interference

Specifications

The FOD0700 has a typical propagation delay of a few nanoseconds, allowing for high-speed data transmission. It features high common-mode transient immunity, preventing spurious signals from triggering the output. It operates over a wide supply voltage range, making it compatible with various logic families. The device is typically packaged in a small outline package (SOP).
