4N37 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

  • The 4N37 can operate safely between -40°C to 100°C, but the optimal operating temperature range is between 0°C to 70°C for reliable performance.

  • To ensure proper biasing, connect the anode of the LED to a voltage source through a current-limiting resistor, and connect the cathode to ground. The recommended forward current is 10mA to 20mA.

  • The maximum voltage that can be applied to the output transistor is 70V, but it's recommended to keep it below 50V for reliable operation.

  • Choose a resistor that limits the forward current to 10mA to 20mA, depending on the desired brightness and operating conditions. A higher current will result in a brighter LED, but may reduce the lifespan of the device.

  • The 4N37 is not suitable for high-frequency applications above 1MHz due to its limited bandwidth. For high-frequency applications, consider using a faster optocoupler like the 6N137 or 7N137.
