description
These high-speed optocouplers are designed for use in analog or digital interface applications that require
high-voltage isolation between the input and output. Applications include line receivers that require high
common-mode transient immunity, and analog or logic circuits that require input-to-output electrical isolation.
The 6N135, 6N136, and HCPL4502 optocouplers each consists of a light-emitting diode and an integrated
photon detector composed of a photodiode and an open-collector output transistor. Separate connections are
provided for the photodiode bias and the transistor-collector output. This feature, which reduces the transistor
base-to-collector capacitance, results in speeds up to one hundred times that of a conventional phototransistor
optocoupler.
The 6N135 is designed for TTL/CMOS, TTL/LSTTL, and wide-band analog applications.
The 6N136 and HCPL4502 are designed for high-speed TTL/TTL applications. The HCPL4502 has no base
connection.

8. The 4.1-k
load represents one LSTTL unit load of 0.36 mA and a 6.1-k
pullup resistor.
9. The 1.9-k
load represents one TTL unit load of 1.6 mA and a 5.6-k
pullup resistor.
10. Common-mode transient immunity, high-level output, is the maximum rate of rise of the common-mode input voltage that does not
cause the output voltage to drop below 2 V. Common-mode input transient immunity, low-level output, is the maximum rate of fall
of the common-mode input voltage that does not cause the output voltage to rise above 0.8 V.

TBD: The Pb-Free/Green conversion plan has not been defined.
Pb-Free (RoHS): TI's terms "Lead-Free" or "Pb-Free" mean semiconductor products that are compatible with the current RoHS requirements
for all 6 substances, including the requirement that lead not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous materials. Where designed to be soldered
at high temperatures, TI Pb-Free products are suitable for use in specified lead-free processes.
Green (RoHS & no Sb/Br): TI defines "Green" to mean Pb-Free (RoHS compatible), and free of Bromine (Br) and Antimony (Sb) based flame
retardants (Br or Sb do not exceed 0.1% by weight in homogeneous material)
