Product details
Overview
DPC817S-B-TR-V from Diodes Incorporated is a high-isolation, surface-mount phototransistor coupler in SL-4 package with 130–260% CTR at IF = 5 mA, VCE = 5 V, 5000 VRMS input-output isolation, and -55°C to +110°C operating range-used for feedback control in isolated AC/DC SMPS and I/O level-shifting in industrial PLCs.
For engineers reviewing the DPC817S-B-TR-V datasheet, DPC817S-B-TR-V pinout, DPC817S-B-TR-V application, or DPC817S-B-TR-V equivalent, key selection criteria include CTR rank B (130–260%), SL-4 footprint compatibility, VDE-certified isolation, and guaranteed 35 V VCEO output breakdown voltage under industrial temperature stress.
Technical Context
This optocoupler integrates a GaAs infrared LED emitter and a silicon NPN phototransistor in a single-molded, green compound package. Its current transfer ratio is specified at 5 mA forward current and 5 V collector-emitter voltage, with saturation voltage ≤0.2 V at IC = 1 mA and IF = 20 mA.
The device meets UL1577, CQC GB 4943.1-2022, and VDE EN IEC 60747-5-5 safety standards, enabling reinforced insulation in Class I and II power supplies. It supports 80 kHz bandwidth and exhibits ≤18 µs rise/fall times into 100 Ω load.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| CTR Rank | B: 130–260% at IF = 5 mA, VCE = 5 V - ensures reliable switching margin across temperature and aging in closed-loop feedback paths |
| VCEO | 35 V - supports output-side operation up to 24 V DC rails with safety margin in industrial control interfaces |
| VISO | 5000 VRMS - enables reinforced insulation per IEC 62368-1 and IEC 60950-1 in AC/DC adapters and motor drives |
| Operating Temp | -55°C to +110°C - qualified for under-hood automotive auxiliary systems and outdoor telecom power modules |
| Package | SL-4 (Surface-mount, 4-pin, 2.54 mm pitch) - compatible with automated SMT assembly and IPC-7351B land patterns |
| Isolation Resistance | ≥5 × 10¹⁰ Ω at 500 VDC - maintains signal integrity in high-impedance sensing circuits over lifetime |
| fC | 80 kHz (-3 dB) - sufficient for PWM frequencies up to 40 kHz in flyback controller feedback loops |
Pinout & Package
SL-4 package: 4-pin surface-mount, 2.54 mm lead pitch, 10.16 mm body width (E), 4.60 mm body length (D), 3.50 mm height (A2), matte tin-plated leads, RoHS-compliant "Green" mold compound (UL 94V-0).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Anode | LED anode input - requires series resistor to limit IF to ≤60 mA; polarity marked by dot on package |
| 2 | Cathode | LED cathode return - connects to ground or low-side switch in input-side circuit |
| 3 | Emitter | Phototransistor emitter output - typically tied to ground or pulled up via external resistor on output side |
| 4 | Collector | Phototransistor collector output - provides active-low switched output referenced to isolated supply rail |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| VDE-certified isolation | EN IEC 60747-5-5 compliance enables use in medical and industrial equipment requiring certified reinforced insulation |
| CTR stability over temperature | Relative CTR remains ≥85% from -40°C to +85°C - reduces gain drift in precision voltage feedback networks |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar phototransistor coupler applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| TLP185(GB-TP,F) | CTR 100–200%, VDE-certified, same SL-4 package but higher typical CTR spread (±25%) and no VDE marking on tape | Acceptable for non-safety-critical feedback where tighter CTR binning not required | Select if cost-sensitive and VDE documentation traceability is not mandated by end-equipment certification |
| PC817X2NSZ0F | CTR 130–260%, same SL-4, but only UL/CQC certified (no VDE EN IEC 60747-5-5) | Suitable for North American or Chinese market products lacking EU medical/industrial VDE requirements | Choose when regional safety approvals suffice and VDE-specific test reports are unnecessary |
Compared with TLP185(GB-TP,F), DPC817S-B-TR-V offers tighter CTR consistency and full VDE documentation traceability; versus PC817X2NSZ0F, it adds VDE EN IEC 60747-5-5 compliance critical for CE-marked medical and industrial equipment in Europe.

FAQ
What is the minimum forward current required to reliably saturate the output transistor?
The phototransistor achieves VCE(SAT) ≤ 0.2 V at IF = 20 mA and IC = 1 mA. For reliable saturation across temperature and CTR variation, design for IF ≥ 8 mA (minimum) with derating to 5 mA only under nominal 25°C conditions and highest CTR bin (B: 130–260%).
Does DPC817S-B-TR-V support bidirectional signal transmission?
No. It is a unidirectional optocoupler with an LED input stage and NPN phototransistor output stage. Signal flow is strictly input (pins 1–2) to output (pins 3–4); reverse biasing the phototransistor or applying voltage to pins 3–4 does not enable reverse conduction.
Can this part replace through-hole DIP-4 variants like DPC817D-B-TU-V in existing designs?
Electrically identical, but SL-4 footprint differs mechanically from DIP-4: SL-4 has 2.54 mm pitch and surface-mount pads; DIP-4 uses 0.1" pitch and through-hole leads. PCB redesign is required-no drop-in replacement. Thermal and isolation performance remain equivalent.
What is the maximum recommended soldering temperature profile for SL-4 reflow?
Peak reflow temperature must not exceed +260°C for ≤10 seconds, per JEDEC J-STD-020. The device is MSL Level 1, so no pre-bake is needed. Use standard Pb-free reflow profile with ramp rate ≤3°C/s, soak at 150–200°C for 60–120 s, and peak at 245–260°C for ≤10 s.
