EL817 Description

The EL817 series of devices each consist of infrared emitting diodes, optically coupled to a phototransistor detector. They are packaged in a 4-pin DIP package and available in wide-lead spacing and SMD options. 

 

The EL817 is a micropower instrumentation amplifier optimized for single-supply operation over the +2.4V to +5.5V range. Inputs and outputs can operate rail-to-rail. The EL817 also delivers excellent DC and AC specifications while consuming only 65µA typical supply current. As with all instrumentation amplifiers, a pair of inputs provide very high common-mode rejection and are completely independent of a pair of feedback terminals.

 

The feedback terminals allow zero input to be translated to any output offset, including ground. A feedback divider controls the overall gain of the amplifier. The EL817 is compensated for a gain of 100 or more, also it has bipolar input devices for best offset and 1/f noise performance. The amplifiers can be operated from one lithium cell or two Ni-Cd batteries. The EL817 input range includes ground to slightly above positive rail. The output stage swings to the ground and positive supply (no pull-up or pull-down resistors are needed).

Frequently Asked Questions

1.How to connect EL817 optical lotus to 12V power supply?
If you just switch between high and low levels, it’s true as mentioned above, you can put the input signal on the anode of the diode and pin 1 of the optocoupler, or put the output signal on the E pole of the transistor and pin 4 of the photocoupler. This can be used. The phase is opposite, but generally speaking, we use a common-emitter circuit, so it is still recommended to change the input signal position. As for the resistance, it is generally 100O~1kO for signal detection.
2.What is the difference between EL817 optocoupler and MOC3063 optocoupler? Is it interchangeable?
EL817 uses LED + photosensitive transistor for coupling, and the output has the characteristics of a transistor. Can only control DC MOC3063 adopts LED + Triac for coupling, and the output has the characteristics of triac. Can only control communication. Therefore it cannot be replaced.
3.What is the difference between EL817 and PC817?
The same, they are all optocouplers. PC817 is more common, and EL817 is produced by Taiwan Everlight. PC and EL are the shortcodes of their R&D company. For example, there is a power amplifier chip called LM4871, and another kind of XPT4871 developed in Shenzhen. The two are completely universal.
