FvM said:Cause semiconductor devices are light sensitive
What do you mean? Do you expect the circuit to be mounted in an opaque enclosure? I think, the discussion is about usual molded IC packages, they have no other light barrier than the black filled package epoxy and they may be directly light exposed in some applications.IC chip packaged and closed from outside, and no light could transpierce

Interestingly, today's small (and thin) SMT packages don't provide sufficient light protection for sensitive analog IC, you can find respective hints in some manufacturers datasheets.
Regarding colour of package material: Only black filled material is absorbing all possibly interfering UV to NIR spectral components.
(Note 2) Because of the construction,leak current might be increased by ambient light. Please use photocoupler with less ambient light.

like dark blue.....
can any one further explain me???
I really appreciate this plausible explanation.Coz Beetles are Black
