Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution for the HCPL-0601#060 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Isolation Voltage: 3750Vrms minimum
• Output Configuration: Open Collector, Schottky Clamped topology
• Data Rate: 10MBd minimum
• Common Mode Transient Immunity: 10kV/µs minimum
• Package: 8-SOIC form factor
• Channel Count: Single channel (1)
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V ~ 5.5V compatibility
• Propagation Delay: 100ns maximum (tpLH and tpHL)

The HCPL-0601-060E qualifies as a direct substitute, maintaining identical electrical specifications and package configuration while offering improved product status and compliance certification.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HCPL-0601-060E is the direct equivalent for the discontinued HCPL-0601#060. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications, ensuring pin-for-pin compatibility and functional equivalence in circuit applications.

The HCPL-0601-060E offers two significant advantages over the original part:

1. Product Status: The HCPL-0601-060E maintains active production status, ensuring long-term availability and supply chain continuity.

2. Compliance: The HCPL-0601-060E is ROHS3 compliant, whereas the HCPL-0601#060 is RoHS non-compliant. This distinction is critical for applications subject to RoHS regulations or customer requirements mandating compliant components.

For new designs or system refreshes, the HCPL-0601-060E is the appropriate selection. For legacy system maintenance where the original part is unavailable, the HCPL-0601-060E provides full functional replacement without circuit modification.
