Overview
The 6N137VM is a high-speed logic gate optocoupler produced by onsemi. This component consists of an 850 nm AlGaAS LED optically coupled to a very high speed integrated photo-detector logic gate with a strobable output. The device is designed to provide isolated communications between systems, preventing ground loops and hazardous voltages. It operates over a wide temperature range of -40°C to +85°C and is packaged in an 8-pin DIP (Dual In-Line Package) or SMD (Surface Mount Device) options.
