Requirement
Technical Data
Features
• Special Construction and
Testing
• UL Recognition for
5000 V rms/1 Minute
Requirement
(File No. E55361)
Description
Option 020 consists of special
construction on a wide range of
Hewlett-Packard plastic opto-
couplers. After assembly, each
unit is subjected to an equivalent
electrical performance test to
ensure its capability to withstand
5000 V rms input to output for
one minute. This test is recog-
nized by Underwriters Laboratory
as proof that these components
may be used in many high voltage
applications.
Applications
Dielectric withstand voltage
ratings are required by
Underwriters Laboratory when
components are used in certain
types of electronic equipment.
The voltage rating depends on the
type of electronic equipment and
the specific application within the
equipment. The 5000 V rms/1
Minute dielectric withstand
voltage rating provided by
Option 020 offers excellent high
voltage input to output protec-
tion. Some applicable UL
documents are listed below.

Ordering Information
To obtain this high voltage
capability on plastic optocouplers
order the standard part number
and Option 020.
Examples:
6N135#020
HCPL-2001#020
This option may also be combined
with option #300 (gullwing
surface mount) or #500
(gullwing in tape & reel).
To obtain these combinations
order option #320 or #520
respectively.
Examples:
6N135#320 (gullwing surface
mount and 5000 VAC/1 min)
HCPL-2601#520 (gullwing
surface mount and 5000 VAC/
1 min) in tape & reel
Specifications
All specifications for optocouplers
remain unchanged when this
option is ordered. The 5000
V rms/1 Minute capability is
validated by a factory 6200 VAC/1
Second dielectric voltage
withstand test.
