Broadcom ACPL-217

The Broadcom ACPL-217 is a high-speed optocoupler that consists of an AlGaAs LED and a photo-detector. It is optimized for high common-mode transient immunity and low power consumption, making it ideal for isolated communication or data transmission in noisy environments. The device offers a typical bandwidth of 15MHz and a maximum propagation delay of 75ns, which allows it to be used in applications that require high-speed data transmission with low jitter and noise. The ACPL-217 also features a wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 105°C, which makes it suitable for use in harsh industrial environments.

The ACPL-217 is available in a small, surface-mount SO-5 package that saves board space while providing a reliable and rugged interface between circuits that are at different potentials. The device is compliant with safety standards such as VDE, CSA, and IEC, which ensures that it can be safely used in industrial, medical, and communication applications. In addition, the ACPL-217 has a minimum insulation resistance of 10^11 ohms and a minimum common-mode rejection ratio of 10kV/μs, which ensures reliable operation even in high-voltage environments. Overall, the ACPL-217 is a versatile and reliable optocoupler that provides high-speed and noise-immune connectivity between circuits
