Engineering Selection Recommendations

Both the HCPL0500R2 (onsemi) and HCPL0500R2V (Fairchild Semiconductor) are active production components with identical electrical specifications and package dimensions. Selection between these parts should be based on:

Compliance and Certifications:

  • HCPL0500R2: ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, MSL 1 (Unlimited)
  • HCPL0500R2V: Compliance information not provided in available data

Availability and Packaging:

  • HCPL0500R2: Available in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, 1210 units in stock
  • HCPL0500R2V: Available in Bulk packaging, 3235 units in stock

Both components are suitable for direct substitution in applications requiring single-channel optoisolation at 2500Vrms with transistor output configuration. Component selection should account for packaging requirements, compliance certifications, and supply chain availability.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can HCPL0500R2V directly replace HCPL0500R2 in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both components share identical electrical parameters including isolation voltage (2500Vrms), current transfer ratio (7-50% @ 16mA), output voltage (20V max), output current (8mA), and operating temperature range (-40°C to 85°C). Both use the same 8-SOIC package with identical pin configuration and spacing.

Q: What are the key parameters that determine substitution compatibility?

A: Substitution compatibility is determined by: single-channel configuration, 2500Vrms isolation voltage, 7-50% current transfer ratio range, transistor with base output type, 20V maximum output voltage, 8mA output current per channel, 8-SOIC package dimensions, and -40°C to 85°C operating temperature range.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Yes. HCPL0500R2 is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) packaging, while HCPL0500R2V is supplied in Bulk packaging. Both use the same 8-SOIC physical package. Packaging selection depends on manufacturing assembly requirements and inventory management practices.

Q: What compliance certifications apply to these components?

A: HCPL0500R2 is ROHS3 Compliant, REACH Unaffected, with Moisture Sensitivity Level 1 (Unlimited). Compliance information for HCPL0500R2V is not provided in available technical data.

Q: Are both components currently in active production?
