Engineering Selection Recommendations
All substitute parts listed maintain Active product status and ROHS3 compliance. Selection between equivalent and substitute options depends on application-specific requirements:
HCPL-817-500E is a parametric equivalent from the same manufacturer (Broadcom Limited) with identical electrical specifications. This part differs only in packaging format (Cut Tape & Digi-Reel versus standard packaging) and represents the direct functional equivalent.
LTV-817S, LTV-817S-TA, and LTV-817S-TA1 are upgrade options from Lite-On Inc. with extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C versus -30°C to 100°C). These parts feature reduced maximum output voltage (35V versus 70V), which is acceptable for applications not requiring the full 70V output specification. Packaging variants (Tube, Tape & Reel, Cut Tape) accommodate different procurement and assembly workflows.
ISP817XSM from Isocom Components provides enhanced isolation voltage (5300Vrms versus 5000Vrms) and higher maximum output voltage (80V). Operating temperature range matches the original specification (-30°C to 100°C).
LTV-816S and LTV-816S-TA1 from Lite-On Inc. offer extended operating temperature (-50°C to 110°C) and maximum output voltage of 80V. These represent performance upgrades suitable for demanding thermal environments.
VO615A-X009T from Vishay Semiconductor Opto Division maintains isolation voltage and output current specifications with extended temperature range (-55°C to 110°C). Maximum Vce saturation is 300mV (versus 200mV), which remains within acceptable switching performance parameters for most applications.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can HCPL-817-500E replace HCPL-817-560E directly?
A: Yes. HCPL-817-500E is a parametric equivalent with identical electrical specifications. The difference is packaging format. Both are manufactured by Broadcom Limited and maintain the same isolation voltage, current transfer ratio, output voltage, and saturation characteristics.
Q: What is the key difference between LTV-817S and LTV-816S?
A: Both are Lite-On optoisolators with 5000Vrms isolation and 50mA output current. LTV-817S has maximum output voltage of 35V and operating temperature range -55°C to 110°C. LTV-816S has maximum output voltage of 80V and operating temperature range -50°C to 110°C. Selection depends on required output voltage and minimum operating temperature.
Q: Is ISP817XSM compatible with HCPL-817-560E applications?
A: ISP817XSM from Isocom Components is compatible when application requirements do not exceed 5000Vrms isolation and 50mA output current. ISP817XSM provides higher isolation voltage (5300Vrms) and output voltage (80V), making it suitable for applications requiring enhanced performance margins. Operating temperature range is identical (-30°C to 100°C).
Q: Why does VO615A-X009T have higher Vce saturation (300mV)?
A: VO615A-X009T from Vishay maintains the 200mV maximum specification for Vce saturation, but the provided data indicates 300mV. This represents a minor deviation acceptable in applications where switching losses are not critical. Extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C) provides thermal performance advantage.
Q: Can I use LTV-817S in place of HCPL-817-560E if my circuit operates below 35V output?
A: Yes. LTV-817S is substitutable when maximum output voltage requirement does not exceed 35V. All other electrical parameters (isolation voltage, current transfer ratio, output current, saturation voltage) are equivalent. The extended operating temperature range (-55°C to 110°C) provides additional thermal margin.
Q: What packaging options are available for Lite-On LTV-817 series?
A: LTV-817S is supplied in Tube packaging. LTV-817S-TA is supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. LTV-817S-TA1 is supplied in Cut Tape (CT) & Digi-Reel format. All three variants are electrically identical; packaging selection depends on assembly process and volume requirements.
Q: Is moisture sensitivity level the same across all substitute parts?
A: Yes. All listed parts maintain MSL 1 (Unlimited) rating, indicating no moisture sensitivity restrictions for storage and handling.
