Frequently asked questions

What are the applications for these optocouplers?

They are designed for IPM isolation, isolated IGBT/MOSFET gate drive, AC and brushless DC motor drives, and industrial inverters.

What is the difference between the HCPL-4506 and HCNW4506?

The HCPL-4506 and HCPL-0466 contain a GaAsP LED, while the HCNW4506 contains an AlGaAs LED.

Is an external pull-up resistor required?

No, a 20 kΩ output pull-up resistor can be enabled by shorting output pins 6 and 7, eliminating the need for an external resistor.
