Fairchild Semiconductor (NYSE: FCS) brings industrial system
designers an optocoupler solution with excellent noise immunity.
The FOD8001 answers the need for system engineers� to design a
robust industrial fieldbus network with low transmission error
rates, low system failure rates and proven reliability over an
extended period of time. Fairchild�s high performance optocouplers
offer best-in-class noise immunity resulting from its proprietary
coplanar packaging technology, Optoplanar�. Its integrated circuits
and light emitting diode (LED) are assembled on a coplanar process,
rather than a face-to-face or over-under process, helping to reduce
package capacitance between input and output and improving noise
immunity. It features 25kV/�s@1,500Vcm dynamic Common Mode
Transient Immunity (CMTI) rating under high-speed optocoupler
switching and 40kV/�s@1,000Vcm static CMTI, making it more
resilient to noise.
Its exceptionally high bandwidth (25Mbps) and tight pulse width
distortion (6 nanoseconds) achieves the industry standard for field
bus communications in automation technology such as Profibus,
DeviceNet, CAN, Modbus, Interbus and many other standards. Its wide
supply voltage range from 3V to 5.5V enables easy interfacing with
low voltage devices, reducing overall system power. The FOD8001
also supports wide temperature range of -40�C to +105�C, which is
important in industrial environments.
