Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a miniaturized device having less number of external terminals by mounting a plurality of light emitting devices on a single and the same mounting island and by mounting a plurality of photo detectors on a single and the same mounting island. CONSTITUTION:Phototransistors are used as photo detectors 4 and mounting islands 3 for a light emitting section and light receiving section are common to all channels. Light emitting devices 1 and the photo detectors 4 are mounted on the mounting islands 3 and are wire-bonded. Next, the light emitting device 1 and the photo detector 4 of each channel are optically coupled with light penetrable resin 6 and then are molded with light impenetrable resin 5. Furthermore, the edge of the mounting islands 3 is so prolonged as to be extended outside the light impenetrable resin 5, which increases a heat radiating effect of all the channels. Still, the number of external terminals can be reduced and consequently a miniaturized device can be obtained.

The present invention provides a multi-channel photocoupler in which a light emitting part including a plurality of light emitting elements and a light receiving part having a plurality of light receiving elements are disposed facing each other and integrated by resin sealing, in which each element in both the light emitting part and the light receiving part is integrated. It is a multi-channel photocoupler characterized in that both are mounted on one common mounting island. If the end of the mounting island of this multi-channel photocoupler is exposed outside the resin, the heat dissipation effect can be improved.

In the present invention, the mounting islands of the plurality of light emitting elements and the plurality of light receiving elements are each made into a single island, so that the anode on the light emitting side and the collector on the light receiving side are used as a common terminal. As a result, whereas conventionally, Xn leads were required per n channel (2 on the light emitting side and 2 on the light receiving side), in the structure of the present invention, 2+2n leads are sufficient. Since the leads conventionally used as collector and cathode leads can be used as emitters and anodes in the present invention, almost twice the number of channels can be accommodated even if the external size is the same. For this reason,
The external size can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, since the mounting islands are common, there is no need to connect them with external circuits [Embodiment] Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The light-emitting element 1 and the light-receiving element 4 are optically coupled using a light-transmitting resin 6, and then molded with a light-shielding resin 5.

FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram of Embodiment 2 of the present invention. The mount island 3 has an elongated end 3a as shown in FIG. 2C, and extends outside the light-shielding resin 5 as shown in FIGS. 2A (plan view) and B (front view). The rest is the same as the previous embodiment.

In this embodiment, the heat dissipation effect of all channels is improved because the heat dissipates from the end of the mounting island common to each channel to the outside of the resin. In the conventional structure where each channel is independent, it is necessary to extend the heat sink from each mounting island, resulting in high cost and large size.
