    I got a breadboard kit and this chip was in it with no explanation about what it does and this video was a massive help! Thanks!

    I'm brand new to this stuff, but it looks like this chip is just a switch that can couple a controller, safely and wirelessly through IR light, with a high powered circuit to prevent damage to the controller but still allow it to interface with and command the higher voltage circuit. If that understanding is accurate, this was a great tutorial, thanks a bunch!

    In most cases optocouplers are used in the opposite direction as shown here. High voltage or current signals are on the input side and microcontroller signal input side is on the other side. The third pin is used with a resistor where pull up logic is used for microcontroller input.

    Arduino il 12v volt veremeyeceğim için bu sistemi yapsam uzun ömürlü olur mu ? Bİr otomobil projesi için kullancağım arduino ile tetiklediğim 5 volt ile 12 volt geçişi sağlayacağım. Röle kartları biraz fazla yer kaplıyor. bununla daha kompak bir devre yapabilirim. 4N25 uygun mu yoksa başka bir optokuplör önerir misiniz ? Otomobilin ecu unitesi ne kadar akım çeker bilmiyorum.

    Basically doing the same thing as a relay do, just instead of magnet, it’s use ir light.
    Am I right?

    • @eeapplications

    Thanks sir & God bless you. .
    When I am studying engineering (1983 in South India). . We don't have this much facility's to learn.
    We need to get printed books from USA..
    We need to sent money to USA by money order (postal department)...
    Then the book will arrive (by postal) after one month. ..
    But now a days, most of the students are not studying properly. .
    spending time to watching cricket, movie's, some social websites. . .

    I don't quite understand what pin 6 is for, though. Also trying to determine if a digital signal from microcontroller to pin 1 requires a resistor at all.

    This octocoupler is kinda similar to a relay in terms of usage, can someone tell me the difference?

    • @WillBelden
      @WillBelden ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I believe the relay doesn't offer the true isolation of the optocoupler. Because the optocoupler is just light to indicate the current should flow on the other side. But I'm no engineer, learning myself right now.

    • @maxwellsimon4538
      @maxwellsimon4538 ปีที่แล้ว

      relay uses magnetic fields to attract or repel contactor pins for physical connections. Usually used in higher voltage situations, and more prone to failure over time (wear). The optocoupler is solid state, used at lower voltages, and less prone to failure over time.

    so many components that loo alike , but don't work the same way . the majority of videos on TH-cam teaching electronics components shows you simple and common components, and you think you're ready to service any devices till you come across components like Optocoupler and many more that are uncommon

  • @mattivirta

    have resistor same if 12 V come button input to opto side, etc. promixity sensor 12 V, and output side have 5V out to opto to arduino sense switch what resistor need 12V line and 5 V line not led used.

    • @DRAGUNOV1902
      @DRAGUNOV1902 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      you can use transistor or mosfet, but you dont have galvanic isolation with it. With optocoupler you make sure that your circuits are separated electronically from each other. Its safer this way, but if you are making some high volume systems, maybe not most cost-efficient
