The OLx549 is designed for low input current applications that require optical isolation with a high CTR and low saturation VCE. Each optocoupler consists of an LED and NPN silicon phototransistor that is electrically isolated, but optically coupled inside a hermetic (LCC, FP, TO-5) or non-hermetic (Glob Top) package.
Electrical parameters are comparable to the JEDEC registered 4N49 optocoupler, but with a higher CTR and better CTR degradation characteristics due to radiation exposure.
OLx549 devices are offered as unscreened versions as well as screened to customer requirements, including MIL-STD-883 Class B equivalent, MIL-PRF-19500 JAN, JANTX, JANTXV, JANS equivalent and MIL-PRF-38534 Class H, K equivalent.
