The ACPL-847-00GE is a parametric equivalent from the same manufacturer with identical electrical specifications. The LTV-846 and LTV-847 from Lite-On Inc. are manufacturer-recommended alternatives that meet or exceed the isolation voltage and output current requirements while maintaining the same package footprint and mounting configuration.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

ACPL-847-00GE (Broadcom Limited): This part is a direct parametric equivalent to the ACPL-847-06GE with identical electrical specifications and the same manufacturer. Both parts are active products with ROHS3 compliance. Selection between these two Broadcom variants depends on availability and supply chain requirements.

LTV-846 (Lite-On Inc.): This substitute meets all isolation and output current requirements. The maximum output voltage of 80V exceeds the ACPL-847-06GE specification of 70V, providing additional design margin. The wider current transfer ratio range (50% to 600%) accommodates applications with varying input current conditions. This part is active and ROHS3 compliant.

LTV-847 (Lite-On Inc.): This substitute meets isolation and output current specifications with an extended operating temperature range of -30°C to 110°C, compared to the ACPL-847-06GE range of -30°C to 100°C. The maximum output voltage is 35V, which is lower than the main part. This part is active and ROHS3 compliant and is suitable for applications requiring the extended upper temperature limit.

All substitute parts maintain identical package footprint, mounting configuration, and compliance certifications, enabling direct board-level replacement without layout modifications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can ACPL-847-00GE be used as a direct replacement for ACPL-847-06GE?

A: Yes. Both parts are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and share identical electrical specifications including isolation voltage, output current, saturation voltage, and operating temperature range. The 16-DIP package footprint is identical, enabling direct substitution without circuit modifications.

Q: What are the key differences between Broadcom and Lite-On optoisolators in this comparison?

A: The Broadcom ACPL-847 series specifies a minimum current transfer ratio of 130% at 5mA, while the Lite-On LTV-846 and LTV-847 specify a minimum of 50% at 5mA. Both meet the maximum output current of 50mA per channel and 5000Vrms isolation. The LTV-846 provides higher maximum output voltage (80V vs. 70V), while the LTV-847 offers extended temperature operation to 110°C.

Q: Is the LTV-847 suitable for high-temperature applications?

A: The LTV-847 supports operating temperatures up to 110°C, extending 10°C beyond the ACPL-847-06GE maximum of 100°C. However, the LTV-847 maximum output voltage is 35V, which is lower than the main part's 70V specification. Application requirements for both temperature range and output voltage must be evaluated.

Q: Are all substitute parts RoHS compliant?

A: Yes. The ACPL-847-06GE, ACPL-847-00GE, LTV-846, and LTV-847 are all ROHS3 compliant and suitable for applications requiring RoHS certification.

Q: Can these optoisolators be used interchangeably in existing PCB designs?

A: Yes, all parts share the identical 16-DIP (0.300", 7.62mm) package and through-hole mounting configuration. No PCB layout modifications are required for substitution. Pin-to-pin compatibility is maintained across all four parts.

Q: What inventory levels are available for each part?

A: ACPL-847-06GE has 26,950 units in stock, ACPL-847-00GE has 19,325 units, LTV-846 has 23,564 units, and LTV-847 has 24,200 units available as new original stock.
