DESIGNING FOR OPTOCOUPLERS WITH BASE PIN
GENERAL
Optocouplers (optical couplers) are designed to isolate electrical output from input for complete elimination of noise. They have
been used conventionally as substitutes for relays and pulse transformers. Today's current technology in the area of microcom-
puters creates new applications for optocouplers.
This manual describes the characteristics of typical optocouplers. Also included are notes on designing application circuits for
typical optocouplers (with a base pin) for better comprehension. NEC's typical optocouplers with or without base pins are listed
on the following pages.

There are two kinds of optocouplers (a light emitting diode (LED) as an input and a phototransistor as an output) according to the
type of output transistor: Single transistor type and Darlington-transistor type.
The single-transistor type optocouplers are used to perform high-speed switching (with high-speed response). The Darlington-
transistor type optocouplers are used to obtain a large output current by utilizing a small input current (independently of switching
speeds).
Designing the circuits properly will improve the PS2601 optocoupler (Single Transistor type) by having a base pin in terms of
switching speed, elimination of noise in input signals, and output leakage current (collector dark current, and application to high-
voltage circuits).
APPLICATIONS OF OPTOCOUPLER BASE PINS
INCREASING SWITCHING SPEED
The switching speed of an optocoupler with a base pin can be increased by inserting a resistor between the base and the emitter
of its phototransistor even when the optocoupler is applied to a large load resistance.
Generally, the phototransistor of an optocoupler such as the PS2601 has a large photo-sensitive area on it. Accordingly, the
junction capacitance (CC-B) between the collector and the base of the phototransistor is great (up to 20 pF) and as a result its
response speed (turn-off time toff) is low. The relationship between turn-off time toff and collector-base capacitance CC-B is
expressed by:
toff × CC-B x hFE x RL ................(1)
where
toff : Turn-off time (See Fig. 2-2.)
CC-B : Collector-base capacitance
hFE : D.C. current amplification factor
RL : Load resistance

As judged from expression (1), the turn-off time toff is affected by collector-base capacitance CC-B, D.C. current amplification
factor hFE, and load resistance LR. In actual circuit design, CC-B and hFE are fixed. Accordingly, the turn-off time is significantly
affected by the resistance of load RL.
Graph 1 shows the relationship between response speed (ton,toff) and load resistance (RL) in typical emitter follower (test circuit 1)
having a load resistance of 100 Ω.

As shown in Graph 2, the turn-off time for load resistance of 5 kΩ is about 100 µs. Similarly, the turn-off time for load resistance
of 100 kΩ is 1 to 2 ms. This is also true when the load resistance is connected to the collector of the phototransistor.

To reduce the turn-off time toff of a test circuit having a greater resistance, insert a resistor RBE between the emitter and the base
of the phototransistor. See Test circuit 4 and Test circuit 5. Graph 4 and 5 show their input and output waveforms.

The turn-off time can be greatly reduced by the base-emitter resistance (RL). In Test circuit 4, the turn-off time of the test circuit
having resistance RL is about 1/30 of that of the test circuit without the resistance. This is because the carrier (photocurrent)
stored in the collector-base capacitor (CC-B) is quickly released through the base-emitter resistor (RBE). However, note that part
of a photocurrent generating on the base of the phototransistor flows through the RBE resistor and reduces the current transfer
ratio (CTR). Compare the voltage level of the output waveform in Photo 4 with that of the output waveform in Photo 2. The
current transfer ratio of the test circuit having a base-emitter resistor of 200 kΩ is half or less of that of the test circuit without the
resistance. (See 3.3 for reduction of the current transfer ratio CTR.)

tics.

STABILIZING OUTPUT LEVELS
When an optocoupler is used with the base pin of its phototransistor open, the collector dark current (ICEO) flows as a base
current. The current is amplified as a collector current and could make the output level of the phototransistor unstable. To
eliminate this unwanted base current and make the output level stable, flow the collector dark current (ICEO) through the base-
emitter resistor (RBE).

ELIMINATION OF INDUCED NOISE
Generally, machine-controlling equipment generates induced noise which may cause malfunctions. This unwanted noise in input
signals can be isolated by means of optocouplers. However, if the noise is too strong, it may be switched to the output through
the input-output capacitance C1-2 of the optocoupler. This unwanted noise in the output can be removed in the following manner.
Insert a capacitor (preferably 100 pF) between the base and the emitter of the phototransistor of the optocoupler. This capacitor
delays response and suppresses malfunctions.
Graph 6-(a) to 6-(d) show how an external noise (surge voltage of 1000 V/µs at rise time) is eliminated as the capacitance of the
base-emitter capacitor.
A fluctuation in the collector-emitter voltage caused by the on/off operation of a power switch at the output of the optocoupler
causes a base current to flow through the collector-base capacitor (CCB), which causes a malfunction.
In Fig. 2-7, for example, an instantaneous base current flows through the collector-base capacitor (CCB) of the optocoupler. The
current is multiplied by hFE (as a collector current) and causes an output voltage on both ends of the load resistance. It seems as
if an input signal was applied to the optocoupler. Graph 7-(a) shows the waveforms. This unwanted instantaneous induction
current can be eliminated by inserting a capacitor CBE between the emitter and the base of the phototransistor. Graph 7-(b)
shows the waveforms. Fig. 2-8 shows the output-voltage vs. CBE characteristics.

As mentioned above, noise induced by the fluctuation of supply voltage can be removed by proper treatment of the base pin. For
switching of input free from induced noise at normal switching speed, optocouplers with a base pin such as the PS2602 series
are available. If the base pin of an optocoupler is left unused or opened, it typically will pick up external noise. Cutting off the
base pin is also effective in order to prevent it from picking up external noise. See Graph 8-(b).

ELIMINATION OF INPUT SURGES
Unwanted external noise and output leakage currents (e.g., collector current IC) of a preceding transistor may cause the light-
emitting diode (LED) of an optocoupler to light involuntarily. Usually, a circuit (connecting a resistor in parallel to the LED) is
provided to absorb such input surges. To prevent malfunction of an optocoupler, it is also effective to insert a resistor (RBE) that
increases the input threshold current (by the use of the input-output characteristics) between the base and the emitter of the
phototransistor. In this case, the current transfer ratio (CTR) must be low. (See 3.3 for Reduction of CTR.)

APPLICATION TO HIGH POTENTIAL CIRCUIT
The withstanding voltage between the collector and the emitter of the PS2601 optocoupler is 80 V (MAX). To make the
optocoupler available to higher withstanding voltages, use the collector-base junction photodiode as a light-sensitive element and
connect a high-voltage circuit to the output of the optocoupler. In this case, the output of the photodiode must be amplified
because it is smaller than the usual output.
Fig. 2-10 shows an example of an optocoupler applied to a high-voltage circuit. In this sample circuit, the photocurrent (ICBL) of
the optocoupler is fed to the base of the high-voltage transistor and a current (IF) passes forward through the light-emitting diode
(LED). Fig. 2-11 shows the ICBL vs. IF characteristics. Before working on applications outside the rated values of the
optocouplers, evaluate the practical circuits fully by contacting CEL.

NOTES ON USE OF OPTOCOUPLER BASE PIN
This chapter explains the reduction of a current transfer ratio of an optocoupler whose base and emitter are connected by a
resistor (RBE) and other optocouplers that seem to be significant in the treatment of the base pin of an optocoupler.

DEFINITION OF CURRENT TRANSFER RATIO (CTR)
A current transfer ratio (CTR) of an optocoupler indicates the rate of an output current IC of its phototransistor to a forward input
current (IF) flowing through its light-emitting diode (LED). The CTR is expressed by:
IC
CTR =
x = 100 (%) ................(2)
IF
where IC = ICBL•hFE ..............................(3)
(hFE: D.C. current amplification factor of the phototransistor)
14
REDUCTION OF CURRENT TRANSFER RATIO (CTR) BY INSERTION OF BASE-
EMITTER RESISTOR
A resistor (RBE) connected to the base and emitter pins of an optocoupler causes the reduction of the output current (reduction of
current transfer ratio). This is because a part (I1) of the base current flows through the base-emitter resistor and causes a voltage
equivalent to the emitter-base voltage (VBE). The base current is reduced by this current component (I1) and, as the result, the
current transfer ratio (CTR) goes down. The output current IC' is expressed as follows:
I
CBL

) ................ (4)
ICBL • RBE
Note IC'
hFE'
: Output current of an optocoupler having RBE
: Amplification factor of an optocoupler having RBE
Accordingly, the ratio of output current IC' (of the optocoupler having RBE) to output current IC (of the optocoupler with the base
open) is expressed by:
IC' hFE'
IC hFE
VBE
= ( 1 -
) ................ (5)
ICBL • RBE
As hFE' is equal to hFE if IF = approx. 5 mA, IC = approx. 15 mA, and RBC > 100 kΩ, expression (5) is simplified as follows:
IC'
IC
VBE
= 1 -
................ (6)
ICBL • RBE
15
Expression (6) indicates that the current transfer ratio (CTR) is significantly affected by the value of ICBL • RBE. For example, if
the forward current IF of the light-emitting diode is smaller (that is, ICBL is smaller) or if the base-emitter resistance RBE is smaller,
the reduction rate (rate of IC') becomes greater.
The above CTR reduction must be considered when inserting a resistor between the emitter and the base of the phototransistor
of the optocoupler to increase the switching speed. The performance of the optocoupler might become unstable because the
CTR will be affected by time elapse or temperature change (even if it is initially stable).

Let's assume that hFE of transistor Tr1 is 40 (worst). Ib must be as follows:
I3
9.9 (mA)
40
Ib
=
= 0.247 (mA) ................(11)

Similarly, let's assume that VBE of transistor Tr1 is 0.8 V (worst), I1 must be as follows:
VBE
R1
0.8
I1 =
=
= 0.4 (mA) ................(12)
2 (kΩ)
Therefore, the output current I0 of the optocoupler is
I0 I1 + Ib = 0.647 (mA) ................ (13)
If forward current IF is 3 mA (worst) (normally IF = 5 mA), the CTR is calculated as follows:
I0
0.647(mA)
3 (mA)
CTR =
x 100 =
x 100 = 21.6% ................(14)

Accordingly, the CTR value including reduction of CTR by time elapse, temperature change, and insertion of RBE must be 21.6 %
or more.
A design example of an optocoupler circuit that operates for at least ten years is shown below (using Fig. 3-3, 4-2 and 4-3). The
major causes of CTR reduction area as follows:

PS2500-SERIES MULTI-CHANNEL OPTOCOUPLERS
GENERAL
Recently, optocouplers have been supplanting relays and pulse transformers for complete noise elimination, level conversion,
and high-potential isolation. Microprocessor systems are requiring more and more optocouplers on the limited area of PC boards
for I/O interface and other purposes. For these requirements, NEC has manufactured multi-channel optocouplers having 4 pins
(for one channel) to 16 pins (for four channels). These multi-channel optocouplers are called the PS2500 series optocouplers.
The PS2500 series optocouplers are divided into PS2501, PS2502, PS2505, and PS2506 according to their functions.
(PS2501L, PS2502L, PS2505L, and PS2506L have leads formed for surface installation.)
This manual describes features, structures, and basic characteristics of the PS2500 series optocouplers.
FEATURES, STRUCTURES, AND PACKAGE DIMENSIONS
Features
The major feature of PS2500 is very high isolation voltage between input and output (substantially two to three times that of the
conventional PS2400 series optocouplers). This can be proved because none of the 1300 test optocouplers were destroyed in a
strict product test (applying 10 kVac to each optocoupler for one minute). The improvement in dielectric strength of the PS2500
optocouplers has been accomplished by the double molding package structure.
In addition to high isolation voltage, the PS2500 optocouplers boast high heat resistance and high moisture resistance. Table 1
lists the major features of the PS2500 series optocouplers.

Optocoupler Structure
Figure 1 shows the internal perspective view of a PS2500 optocoupler and Figure 2 shows the sectional view of the optocoupler.
Figure 2 below shows the optocoupler in a light-tight epoxy resin housing, and a light-sensitive element (phototransistor or photo
Darlington transistor) with light-transmittable epoxy resin medium between them. A light signal emitted by the LED is transferred
to the photosensitive transistor via the internal resin medium.
Both the housing resin and the internal resin have the same expansion coefficient. Namely, the optocoupler elements are molded
twice with epoxy resin. (This structure is referred to as a double molding structure.)
The high isolation voltage is obtained by the long adjacent area of the inner and outer resins (inner boundary) and identical
expansion coefficient of the inner and outer resins (eliminating arc discharges on the inner boundary).

Dimensions
Figures 3 and 4 show the dimensions of the PS2500 series optocouplers. The PS2500 series optocouplers are very compact
and fit for high-density installation on PC boards. For example, the package area occupied by a single channel of the PS2500
series is half that of the PS2600 series (6-pin Dual in-line package).

CHARACTERISTICS OF PS2501 AND PS2505 OPTOCOUPLERS
Current Transfer Ratio (CTR)
The current transfer ratio (CTR) of an optocoupler is the ratio of the value of output current IC to the value of input forward current
IF (IC/IF x 100%). The CTR is a parameter equivalent to the D.C. current amplification factor hFE of a transistor.
The CTR is one of the most significant characteristics of optocouplers, as well as isolation voltage. In circuit designing, CTR must
be considered first of all because the CTR:
1
2
3
varies as time goes by,
is affected by ambient temperature, and
is dependent upon forward current IF flowing through the LED.
Both PS2505 and PS2506 optocouplers (bidirectional input type) have two current transfer ratios (CTRs) because they have two
LEDs in the input. For further information, refer to Applications of Optocouplers for A.C. input.
Change of CTR over time
The current transfer ratio (CTR) of an optocoupler is determined by the light-emission efficiency of the LED (emitting infrared
light), efficiency of light transmission between the LED and the phototransistor, light sensitivity of the phototransistor, and hFE of
the transistor.
The change of a CTR over time is mainly caused by reduction of the light-emission efficiency of the LED. Generally, the CTR is
reduced to a greater extent as the forward current IF increases or as the operating temperature increases. Figure 5 and 6
respectively show estimated changes of CTRs of PS2501 and PS2505 optocouplers over time.

coefficient. See Figure 7.

CTR vs. IF Characteristics (IF: Forward Current Flowing Through the LED)
The current transfer ratio (CTR) depends upon the magnitude of a forward current (IF). When IF goes lower or higher than a
proper magnitude, the CTR becomes smaller. Figure 9 shows the CTR vs. IF characteristics.
Note that rate changes of CTRs are very diffrent at low IF magnitude (approx. 5 mA), middle IF magnitude (approx. 5 mA), and
high IF magnitude (approx. 20 mA). Namely, the CTR depends heavily upon the magnitude of forward current IF in lower and
higher current ranges.
For low-input and high-output switching, see Chapter 4.

Response Characteristics
The response characteristics of optocouplers are the same as those phototransistors. The fall time tf is expressed by:
tf RL•hFE•CCB
RL: Load resistance
hFE: Amplification factor
CCB: Collector-base capacitance
If RL is too high, tf becomes too high to be fit for high-speed signal transmission. Select the proper load resistance for the desired
signal rate. Similarly, the collector current must fully satisfy the minimum value of the CTR, CTR vs. TA characteristics, and CTR
vs. time characteristics. Otherwise, the phototransistor will operate unsaturated, causing lower response characteristics and
malfunction.
Figures 10 to 13 show the response-time vs. forward current characteristics and response-time vs. VCC characteristics, using load
resistance and ambient temperature as parameters.

At normal temperature (TA = 25 °C), the collector cut-off current ICEO is very little (about 1 nA (at VCE = 80 V and CTR = about
400% )), but it will be multiplied by about 10 at an increment of 25°C. This needs to be kept in mind when using a small output
current (IC) of an optocoupler with a high load.
The rate change of VCE (sat) (Collector Saturation Voltage) is about 0.7% per °C at ambient temperature of 0°C to 70°C. In circuit
design, the collector output current IC should be determined under the condition of half or less of the CTR rated values. Other-
wise, the saturation voltage VCE (sat) will become greater.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PS2502 AND PS2506 OPTOCOUPLERS
The PS2502 and PS2506 optocouplers are higher in sensitivity than the PS2501 and PS2505 optocouplers and can be driven by
low currents.
CTR-Related Characteristics
The PS2502 and PS2506 optocouplers assure CTR 200% at IF = 1 mA and can be directly driven by CMOS output signals.
See 3.1 for CTR definition and characteristics.

CTR vs. IF Characteristics
As shown in Figure 8, the CTR of a single-transistor output optocoupler (such as the PS2501 and PS2505 optocouplers) is at
most 20% in a low-current area (e.g. IF = 0.1 mA). However, the CTR of a Darlington-transistor output optocoupler (such as the
PS2502 and PS2506 optocouplers) can be greater than 200% in a low-current area (e.g. IF = 0.1 mA).
Figure 24 shows the CTR vs. IF characteristics of the PS2502 and PS2506 optocouplers.

CONCLUSION
Demand for optocouplers featuring higher insulation and noise elimination is steadily increasing. At the same time, various
problems (change of characteristics by ambient temperature and time elapse) will occur in their circuit design. We hope this
manual will be helpful in solving such problems.

APPLICATION OF AC INPUT COMPATIBLE OPTOCOUPLER
INTRODUCTION
With the rapid penetration and diversification of electronic systems, demand for optocouplers is strengthening. Most popular are
products featuring compact design, low cost, and high added value.
To meet the market needs, NEC is expanding the optocoupler. This manual focuses on optocouplers compatible with AC input,
and covers configuration, principles of operation, and application examples.

Figure 1 shows the internal pin connection of the AC input compatible optocoupler PS2505-1, and Figure 2, of the optocoupler
PS2501-1. The most significant difference from the optocoupler (PS2501-1) is that the PS2505-1 incorporates an input circuit
with two LEDs connected in reverse parallel. In the optocoupler (PS2501-1), one LED is connected in the input circuit so that the
LED emits light to provide a signal when a current flows in one direction (1-2 in Figure 2) (one-direction input type).
However, in the configuration shown in Figure 1, when a current flows in direction 1 to 2, LED1 emits light to send a signal, and
when it flows from 2 to 1, LED2 emits light to send a signal (bidirectional input type). Namely, even if the voltage level between 1
and 2 varies, and the positive and negative polarities are changed, either of two LEDs emits light to send a signal. This means
that the one direction input optocoupler permits DC input only, while the bidirectional input type permits AC input as well. There-
fore, the PS2505-1 is described as an AC input compatible optocoupler.
The next section describes the status of output signals when 100 Vac power is directly input to an AC input compatible
optocoupler (PS2505-1) via a current limit resistor.

DIRECT INPUT OF 100 Vac

As described above, when an AC input compatible optocoupler is used, an AC input signal can be extracted as a full-wave
rectified output signal. The output signal is smoothed by inserting a capacitor in the last stage of the circuit of a phototransistor if
necessary.
In the one-direction input optocoupler (PS2501 series), when an AC signal is to be input, it must be full-or half-wave rectified by a
diode bridge or CR circuit. On the other hand, the AC input compatible optocoupler permits direct input of an AC signal. This
enables simpler configuration, space saving, and reduced design cost.
The next section demonstrates three examples of applications.

PRECAUTIONS FOR DESIGN
The AC input compatible optocoupler is identical to the conventional optocoupler except for the presence of two LEDs connected
in reverse parallel in the input circuit. Therefore, the circuit configuration can be designed as conventionally. The difference is
that there are two types of current transfer ratios (CRT) because two LEDs are connected in the input circuit. The two CTRs are
not necessarily the same, owing to the differences in light emission and coupling efficiencies of LEDs. Consequently, this causes
deviation in output signal level. The differences are rated under the item of the current efficiency ratio (CTR1/CTR2) for electric
characteristics.

The transfer efficiency ratio (CTR1/CTR2) is rated as 0.3 (MIN.), 1.0 (TYP.), and 3.0 (MAX.). Assuming that CTR1 is 200%, CTR2
is in the range of 66 to 600%. Therefore, an AC input compatible optocoupler should be designed to operate with CTR 66 to
600%. For reference, the electric characteristics of the AC input compatible optocoupler (PS2505 series) are as follows:
