Request InfoAPC HeroHero Electronics Ltd. has introduced a low-profile SMD optocoupler manufactured by Bedford Opto Technology. The OPI1000L is suitable for applications such as metering and instrumentation in hazardous environments that require signal isolation up to 10 kV. Its infrared emitter couples to a silicon phototransistor that provides a minimum current transfer ratio of 40% at 1 mA input current. The device can be gain-selected for higher transfer ratios to meet application requirements. The optocoupler's output transistor has a breakdown level of 35 V and is capable of 165 mW of dissipation over a...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaWEBINARSPhotonics.com 3/27/2024Precision Planning: Simplified Laser Scanning with Predictive SoftwareConventional controllers for laser scan systems do not allow to predict the actual path of the laser beam on the work piece.
