About this part

The Toshiba TLP291(UG-TPR,SE) is a single-channel (1-element) transistor-output photocoupler consisting of a gallium-arsenide (GaAs) infrared emitting diode optically coupled to a silicon phototransistor. Housed in Toshiba’s very small and thin SO4 (SOP-4) surface-mount package, it is engineered for high-density mounting in isolated signal and power-management applications. The device carries comprehensive global safety approvals.

With a guaranteed wide operating temperature range of -55 C to 110 C and a high isolation voltage of 3750 Vrms, the TLP291 family is well suited to small switching power supplies, programmable controllers, and hybrid ICs.

Frequently asked questions

What is the TLP291(UG-TPR,SE)?

It is a Toshiba single-channel phototransistor-output optocoupler (photocoupler) in a compact SO4 (SOP-4) surface-mount package. It pairs a GaAs infrared LED with a silicon phototransistor to provide 3750 Vrms electrical isolation between input and output.

What is the isolation voltage of the TLP291?

The TLP291 provides a minimum isolation voltage (BVS) of 3750 Vrms, tested at AC for 60 seconds, with a minimum creepage and clearance of 5.0 mm and 0.4 mm minimum insulation thickness.

What is the current transfer ratio (CTR) of the TLP291?

The standard TLP291 has a CTR of 50% minimum with a 50-400% range at IF = 5 mA, VCE = 5 V. Rank GB versions are specified at 100% minimum. Published CTR ranks for the family include Y, GR, GB, YH, GRL, GRH, and BLL.

Is the TLP291 still in production?

The TLP291 family shows mixed lifecycle status across distributors, with some ordering options listed as Active and others as Not Recommended for New Design (NRND). Confirm the current status for this specific ordering code via RFQ. Pacific Component Xchange sources it for repair, maintenance, and legacy production needs.

What package does the TLP291(UG-TPR,SE) use?

It uses Toshiba's SO4 (SOP-4) package, a very small and thin 4-pin surface-mount body weighing about 0.05 g, designed for high-density SMT assembly. Pin 1 is the anode, pin 2 the cathode, pin 3 the emitter, and pin 4 the collector.

How do I get pricing for TLP291(UG-TPR,SE)?

Because this is a hard-to-find ordering option, pricing is provided by request. Submit an RFQ to Pacific Component Xchange for current availability, lead time, and a quote, with authenticity inspection and global shipping included.
