Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the 6N135VG and 6N135G are active production components from Isocom Components 2004 LTD with identical electrical specifications and mechanical packaging. Selection between these parts may be based on inventory availability: 6N135VG has 962 units in stock, while 6N135G has 808 units in stock. Both components maintain ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status, meeting regulatory requirements for industrial and commercial applications. The identical parameter set ensures direct functional substitution in 8-DIP through-hole circuit board layouts requiring 5000Vrms galvanic isolation.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the 6N135G replace the 6N135VG in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical parameters including isolation voltage, current transfer ratio, output characteristics, and operating temperature range. The 8-DIP package dimensions are equivalent, enabling direct pin-for-pin substitution in through-hole applications.

Q: What determines substitution eligibility for 6N135 series optocouplers?

A: Substitution is valid when the following parameters match: isolation voltage (5000Vrms), number of channels (1), output type (transistor with base), current transfer ratio range (7-50% @ 16mA), maximum output voltage (20V), maximum output current (8mA), and package format (8-DIP through-hole). All these parameters are identical between 6N135VG and 6N135G.

Q: Are there compliance differences between 6N135VG and 6N135G?

A: No. Both parts carry identical ROHS3 compliance certification and REACH unaffected status, meeting the same regulatory standards for component selection.

Q: Does package format affect substitution?

A: No. Both parts use the 8-DIP (0.400", 10.16mm) through-hole package with identical pin configuration and mechanical dimensions, ensuring compatibility with existing PCB layouts.

Q: What is the operating temperature range for these optocouplers?

A: Both the 6N135VG and 6N135G operate across -55°C to 100°C, supporting industrial and extended temperature applications.
