This block represents an optocoupler using a model that consists of the following components: An exponential light-emitting diode in series with a current sensor on the input side A controlled current source on the output side The output-side current flows from the collector. Optocouplers, also known as opto-isolators, uses infrared light to transfer electrical signals between two electrically isolated circuits and are commonly classified by their photosensitive output device What is an Optocoupler? An optocoupler (also called an opto-isolator, photo-coupler, or optical. As an isolator, an optocoupler can prevent high voltages from affecting the side of the circuit receiving the signal. Linear Optocouplers features an infrared LED optically coupled with two photodiodes. One input-side feedback photodiode is used to generate a control signal that provides a servomechanism to the LED drive current, thus compensating for the LED's nonlinear time and temperature characteristics. It has a value of CTR · Id, where CTR is the Current transfer ratio parameter value and Id is the diode current.
