Optocouplers (Photocell (CdS) Output)
The CdS photocell output optocouplers optically couple an LED to a CdS Light Dependent Resistor (LDR). The LDR resistance increases when the LED current is OFF and decreases when LED current is ON. The device showcases a large dynamic range with a response time that efficiently mimics the human eye's sensitivity to light changes. Engineered with High, Medium, and Low dark resistances, the optocouplers are available with diverse resistance values to suit various applications. The photocells are encased in an opticallyisolated structures.

■General Care and Handling Instructions
Handling and Storage
• Handle Optocouplers and LEDs gently to prevent damage.
• Avoid exposing the devices to temperatures exceeding the storage temperature rating of the device.
• Maintain a non-condensing environment for optimum performance and lifetime.
Cleaning
• For plastic molded devices, cleaning with a 50/50 mixture of Methanol and isopropyl alcohol is recommended. Cleaning in an ultrasonic bath is generally not recommended.
Special Considerations
• Avoid exposing plastic molded devices or epoxy glob topdevices to harsh chemicals like THINNERS, ACETONE, andTRICHLOROETHYLENE.
