OPTO-ISOLATOR THAT USES A NONTRANSPARENT HOLLOW TUBE AS THE OPTICAL WAVEGUIDE EXTENDING BETWEEN THE TRANSMITTER AND RECEIVER MODULES OF THE OPTO-ISOLATOR

摘要

In an opto-isolator, a nontransparent hollow tube having a smooth inner surface with mirror-like qualities is used as the optical waveguide for coupling optical signals between the transmitter module and the receiver module and for providing electrical transient isolation.
