DESCRIPTION
The SFH636 is an optocoupler with a GaAlAs infrared emitting diode, optically coupled to an integrated photodetector consisting of a photodiode and a high speed transistor in a DIP-6 plastic package. The device is functionally similar to 6N136 except there is no base connection, and the electrical foot print is different. Noise and dv/dt performance is enhanced by not bringing out the base connection.
