The saturated current transfer ratio is different: it tells you how much collector current you can still get while keeping the transistor in saturation, i. Other available outputs include TRIAC, MOSFET, highspeed, photovoltaic, or photodiodes as well as combinations of them. Q: WHY SHOULD AN OPTOCOUPLER BE USED? A: Optocouplers are commonly used if two separate circuits need to be isolated from each other for safety or regularity reasons and need. How do I calculate the input at primary from output (of optocoupler) at secondary? Is there any equation. The primary side is a rectified dc (from ac sin wave 50hz, 0v to 10vdc) so the input varies much.
