The TOSHIBA TLP371 and TLP372 consists of a gallium arsenide
infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a Darlington connected
phototransistor which has an integrated baseemitter resistor to
optimize switching speed and elevated temperature characteristics in a
six lead plastic DIP package.
TLP372 has nobase internal connection for highEMI environments.
Current transfer ratio: 1000% (min) (IF = 1mA)
Isolation voltage: 5000 Vrms (min)

significant change in temperature, etc.) may cause this product to decrease in the reliability significantly even if
the operating conditions (i.e. operating temperature/current/voltage, etc.) are within the absolute maximum
ratings.
Please design the appropriate reliability upon reviewing the Toshiba Semiconductor Reliability Handbook
(“Handling Precautions”/“Derating Concept and Methods”) and individual reliability data (i.e. reliability test
report and estimated failure rate, etc.).
