Key Parameters

Substitute Part Grouping Explanation

Substitution of the HCPL-2201#360 is determined by strict equivalence across the following critical parameters:

• Isolation Voltage: 3750Vrms
• Number of Channels: 1 channel
• Output Configuration: Push-Pull, Totem Pole
• Common Mode Transient Immunity: 1kV/µs minimum
• Data Rate: 5MBd
• Output Current: 25 mA per channel
• Package Type: 8-SMD, Gull Wing
• Supply Voltage Range: 4.5V ~ 20V
• Operating Temperature Range: -40°C ~ 85°C

The HCPL-2201-360E qualifies as a direct substitute based on identical electrical specifications and mechanical compatibility across all parameters listed above.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The HCPL-2201-360E is the direct equivalent for the discontinued HCPL-2201#360. Both components share identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters. The primary distinction is product status and regulatory compliance: the HCPL-2201-360E is currently active in production and meets ROHS3 compliance requirements, whereas the original part is discontinued and RoHS non-compliant. For new designs or ongoing procurement, the HCPL-2201-360E is the appropriate selection. The component is available in tube packaging and maintains full electrical and functional compatibility with the original specification.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the HCPL-2201-360E be used as a direct replacement for the HCPL-2201#360?

A: Yes. Both components are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and share identical electrical specifications, including isolation voltage, output current, data rate, propagation delay, and package configuration. No circuit modifications are required.

Q: What is the difference between HCPL-2201#360 and HCPL-2201-360E?

A: The primary differences are product status and regulatory compliance. The HCPL-2201-360E is currently in active production, while the HCPL-2201#360 is discontinued. The HCPL-2201-360E meets ROHS3 compliance standards, whereas the original part does not. Electrical and mechanical specifications are identical.

Q: Are there packaging differences between these parts?

A: Both components use 8-SMD Gull Wing package configuration. The HCPL-2201-360E is supplied in tube packaging, while the original part packaging is not specified in the available data.

Q: What are the critical parameters for substitution in this optoisolator category?

A: For the HCPL-2201 series, critical substitution parameters include isolation voltage (3750Vrms), number of channels (1), output configuration (push-pull totem pole), common mode transient immunity (1kV/µs), data rate (5MBd), output current (25 mA), and package type (8-SMD Gull Wing).

Q: Is the HCPL-2201-360E suitable for applications requiring RoHS compliance?

A: Yes. The HCPL-2201-360E is ROHS3 compliant and is appropriate for applications with RoHS requirements. The original HCPL-2201#360 is not RoHS compliant.
