  • Isolation voltage rating of 5000Vrms
  • Single-channel configuration
  • Current transfer ratio range of 80% to 160% @ 5mA
  • Transistor output type with maximum output voltage of 80V and 50mA per-channel current capacity
  • Vce saturation maximum of 300mV

Switching Characteristics:

  • Rise and fall times of 3µs and 5µs respectively
  • DC input type

Physical and Environmental Compatibility:

  • 4-DIP package with 0.300" (7.62mm) pitch for through-hole mounting
  • Operating temperature range of -55°C to 100°C
  • RoHS3 compliance and REACH compliance status

The PS2501-1-H-A meets all these criteria and qualifies as a parametric equivalent substitute.
