July 13, 2023 - Mouser Electronics, Inc., the industry's leading New Product Introduction (NPI) distributor with the widest selection of semiconductors and electronic components, is now stocking the OLC449 optocoupler from Skyworks Solutions Inc.

The Skyworks Solutions Inc OLC449 optocoupler is a radiation-tolerant phototransistor non-hermetic surface-mount optocoupler. The optocoupler consists of an LED and N-P-N silicon phototransistor that is electrically isolated but optically coupled inside a non-hermetic six-pin Leadless Chip Carrier (LCC) package. The OLC449 can be used for large satellite constellation applications that require optical isolation in radiation environments such as gamma, neutron, and proton radiation with a high CTR and low saturation VCE.

The OLC449 is designed for a low LED operating current while providing excellent radiation tolerance margins. This optocoupler operates at 50mA continuous collector current and 40mA average input current and features 1000VDC electrical isolation.

Applications for the OLC449 optocoupler include satellite constellation, avionics, radar, surveillance systems, space and communications.
