Overview
The 6N137A-X001 is a high-speed optocoupler produced by Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division. This single-channel optocoupler is designed for high-speed data transmission and features a 10 MBd (megabits per second) data rate. It utilizes a high-efficiency input LED coupled to a very high-speed integrated photo-detector logic gate with an open collector output. The device is particularly noted for its high common mode transient immunity (CMTI) of 1 kV/μs, making it suitable for applications requiring robust isolation and high-speed data transfer.
