U unlv007 New Member Jan 21, 2011 #1 Hello I am using phototransistors from radioshack. My application needs them to operate at high frequencies, say a few KHz. They seem to be slow, any suggestions where i could find high frequency photo interruptors/ transistors a? thank you Regards Last edited: Jan 21, 2011

You say, photo-transistors, interrupters, transistors.? The attachment shows an opto coupler. Attachments HCPL2530.pdf 206.8 KB · Views: 241
