4 Classic Circuits Using Opto-Emulators

TI's opto-emulators are designed to be pin-to-pin upgrades for optocoupler components in existing schematics. Circuits which classically use optocouplers can now be upgraded to use opto-emulators and preserve the familiar functionality while enhancing performance, reliability, and safety. Examples of classic circuits using opto-emulators are shown in this section.
