Additional Details:

The TIL196A features a high current transfer ratio, allowing for efficient control of output circuits with relatively low input current. The high isolation voltage rating ensures safe operation in applications where high voltage potentials are present. The Darlington output provides significant current amplification. Key specifications include the forward voltage of the input diode, the collector-emitter breakdown voltage of the output transistor, and the isolation voltage between the input and output. The operating temperature range is typically -55°C to +100°C.
