Working Principle of Optocoupler Integrated Module
Internally an optocoupler contains an infrared or IR emitter LED (normally built using gallium arsenide). Optocouplers become specifically useful where an electrical signal is required to be sent across two circuit stages, but with an extreme degree of electrical isolation across the stages. Unlike transformers or capacitors, which can only transfer AC signals across the isolation barrier, optocouplers can. In this guide, you'll learn how they work and how you can use one in your own projects.
