is it possible optocoupler EL817 wiht input 3.3VDC and output 24VDC like below circuit. and if it possible what is the suitable value for the resistor

  • 1. EL817 output is not strong enough to directly drive a buzzer. The usual trick is to first drive a BJT which is strong enough to in turn to drive a relay switch (or a buzzer). You might like to skim the following post to get a rough idea on the EL817C/NPN BJT biasing design. 2. If you are going to use a BJT for EL817C, you might like to show your circuit so everybody can help. Cheers.

    Why would a buzzer need opto-isolation and what current is this? – Tony Stewart EE75 Aug 12 '21 at 01:53

    @tlfong01 okey i will upload full schematic after it finish. – Rizkis Walker Aug 12 '21 at 05:53

    @TonyStewartEE75 in this case i want to switch on the buzzer by give 24VDC – Rizkis Walker Aug 12 '21 at 05:54
  • If you have a 3V3 signal, say, from a GPIO pin, you can directly drive an active buzzer (Eg, using 4k7 for the front end BJT,, without using any optocoupler. There is also a demo program to beep the buzzer.)

  • 24Vdc is not a current and buzzers if plastic insulated do not need opto isolation – Tony Stewart EE75 Aug 12 '21 at 10:37
  • @TonyStewartEE75 sorry buzzer spec is : 20mA 24VDC – Rizkis Walker Aug 13 '21 at 00:45
