CNY74-2 IC 2 Channel Optocoupler with Phototransistor IC
The CNY74-2 is a dual-channel optocoupler that integrates two independent infrared LEDs and two NPN phototransistor outputs inside a single 8-pin DIP package.
It provides electrical isolation between input and output stages, commonly used to protect microcontrollers, logic circuits, and low-voltage electronics from high-voltage or noisy signals.
The “-2” grade indicates a medium CTR (Current Transfer Ratio) level suitable for general-purpose isolation and logic interfacing.
