Hi everybody,
There are two optocoupler parameters that I need clarification on. Igain against CTR.
In manufacturer's datasheet, specifications are made for CTR but in Spice models are the Igain parameter. Both of these values are entirely different. Is there a relationship between them? How is Igain used in spice simulation? Does Igain have any effect on the choice of components around the opto?
Thanks in advance.
