6-Pin DIP Optoisolators

Transistor Output

The MCT and MCT2E devices consist of a gallium arsenide infrared emitting

diode optically coupled to a monolithic silicon phototransistor detector.

Applications

• General Purpose Switching Circuits

• Interfacing and coupling systems of different potentials and impedances

• I/O Interfacing

• Solid State Relays

• Monitor and Detection Circuits

• To order devices that are tested and marked per VDE 0884 requirements, the

suffix ”V” must be included at end of part number. VDE 0884 is a test option.
