The 6N135 is an optocoupler, also known as an optoisolator or photocoupler. It is a device that combines an infrared LED and a photodetector to provide electrical isolation between input and output circuits.
Here are some details about the 6N135 optocoupler:
Optocoupler Type: The 6N135 is a single-channel optocoupler, meaning it has one input and one output.
Isolation Voltage: The 6N135 optocoupler provides electrical isolation between the input and output circuits. The specific isolation voltage rating can be found in its datasheet.
Input and Output Configurations: The input side of the 6N135 optocoupler consists of an infrared LED, which emits light when forward biased. The output side consists of a photodetector, typically a phototransistor or photodiode, which detects the emitted light and generates an electrical signal.
Package Type: The 6N135 optocoupler is typically available in a dual-inline package (DIP) or a surface-mount package, such as SOP (Small Outline Package) or SOIC (Small Outline Integrated Circuit).
Applications: Optocouplers like the 6N135 are commonly used in applications that require electrical isolation, such as noise reduction, voltage level shifting, feedback control, and protection from high voltage or high-frequency interference. They are often used in industrial automation, telecommunications, power electronics, and digital circuits.
