The Toshiba TLP718 consists of a GaAℓAs light-emitting diode and an
integrated high-gain, high-speed photodetector. This unit is a 6-pin SDIP. The
TLP718 is 50% smaller than the 8-PIN DIP and meets the reinforced insulation
class requirements of international safety standards. Therefore the mounting
