Additional Details

The IL2901DT's open-collector output requires an external pull-up resistor. The response time is relatively fast, allowing it to be used in applications with moderately high-frequency signals.  The device is available in a variety of packages, including surface-mount options.  The input common-mode voltage range typically includes ground, allowing for direct sensing of ground-referenced signals. Proper bypassing of the power supply is recommended to ensure stable operation.
