The OPI104 provides four channels of optical isolation with both a non-inverting output and an inverting output for each channel.
Both the input side and the output side are designed to interface with equipment using logic voltages of anywhere from 3.3V to 24V.
This robust design includes protected low-side output drivers that provide significant sink current capability. Reverse-polarity
protection on inputs and outputs is also included.
This board includes terminal blocks to provide convenient access to the signals.

Applications
Electrical Isolation
Interface between equipment with different grounds
Interface between equipment with different logic levels
Low-side driver for small DC loads (motors, solenoids, bulbs, etc)
Driving a load that could be subjected to fault conditions (e.g., overcurrent, short to supply)
An opto-isolator is sometimes referred to as a "photocoupler", "optical coupler", "optocoupler", "opto coupler", or "optical isolator".

Mounting Options
These products are available in two different mounting variants. Product numbers ending with -DIN come
with DIN clips already installed and ready to snap onto 35mm or 32mm DIN rail. Product numbers ending with -FT
have stick-on rubber feet installed on the bottom side, allowing for benchtop use or panel mounting. For panel mounting, we suggest
1/4" nylon standoffs under the mounting holes, and #6 screws.
