Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

All three optoisolator part numbers—5962-8981002KPC, HCPL-5700, and HCPL-5701—are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and maintain active production status. Each part is ROHS3 compliant, REACH unaffected, and carries MSL Level 1 (unlimited moisture sensitivity). Selection between these parts is based on availability and supply chain requirements, as all electrical and mechanical parameters are identical. HCPL-5700 offers the highest inventory level at 2160 units, followed by HCPL-5701 at 1250 units, and 5962-8981002KPC at 1069 units.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HCPL-5700 or HCPL-5701 be used as direct replacements for 5962-8981002KPC?

A: Yes. Both HCPL-5700 and HCPL-5701 are parametric equivalents with identical isolation voltage (1500VDC), output configuration (Darlington), current transfer ratio (200% @ 5mA), output current capability (40mA), saturation voltage (110mV), operating temperature range (-55°C ~ 125°C), and 8-DIP through-hole package specification. Direct pin-for-pin substitution is supported.

Q: Are there any compliance or certification differences between these parts?

A: No. All three parts share identical RoHS3 compliance status, REACH unaffected designation, and MSL Level 1 rating. Regulatory and environmental compliance is equivalent across all three part numbers.

Q: What is the significance of the different part numbers if the specifications are identical?

A: The different part numbers reflect distinct manufacturing batches or product line designations from Broadcom Limited. Functionally and electrically, they are equivalent. Selection may be driven by inventory availability, procurement lead times, or internal supply chain management.

Q: Is the 8-DIP package compatible with standard through-hole PCB layouts?

A: Yes. All three parts use the 8-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) through-hole package, which is compatible with standard DIP socket footprints and conventional PCB assembly processes. No layout modifications are required when substituting between these part numbers.

Q: What are the key electrical parameters that define substitutability for this optoisolator category?

A: Substitutability is determined by isolation voltage rating, number of channels, output type (Darlington), current transfer ratio, maximum output voltage and current, saturation voltage, and operating temperature range. All identified substitutes maintain these parameters at identical specifications.
