The CNY17F-2 is a Phototransistor Output Optocoupler consisting of a gallium arsenide infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a silicon planar phototransistor detector. The coupling device is suitable for signal transmission between two electrically separated circuits. The potential difference between the circuits to be coupled is not allowed to exceed the maximum permissible reference voltages. In contrast to the CNY17 series, the base terminal of the F type is not connected, resulting in substantially improved common-mode interference immunity.
No base terminal connection for improved common mode interface immunity
