What are the benefits of Opto-emulators vs. Optocouplers?

  • Using TI’s SiO2 based isolation technology, opto-emulators can overcome the limitations associated with traditional optocouplers, enabling superior performance and reliability. Here are a few key advantages that opto-emulators bring to the table:

    1. Lower power consumption
    2. Fast data rates
    3. Improved Common mode transient immunity (CMTI)
    4. Wide temperature range
    5. Robust isolation
    6. Stable and tight Current transfer ratio (CTR)
    7. Bandwidth

    TI’s family of opto-emulators are the upgrade to optocouplers you have been waiting for.
