   +-- 4-digit series (e.g., 1010, 2010, 4010)

KPC Series (High Isolation)

KPC[SERIES][CTR-GRADE][PKG-IND][-SUFFIX]
    |         |          |        |

Handler Implementation Notes

Pattern Matching

// KP series: 4-digit series number
"^KP\\d{4}.*"        // KP1010, KP2010, KP4010

// KPC series: 3-digit series number
"^KPC\\d{3}.*"       // KPC817, KPC357

// KPH series: 3-digit series number
"^KPH\\d{3}.*"       // KPH121, KPH141

// KPS series: 4-digit series number
"^KPS\\d{4}.*"       // KPS1010, KPS2010

// KPTR series: 4-digit series number
"^KPTR\\d{4}.*"      // KPTR1200, KPTR1201

Series Extraction

// Returns prefix + series number
"KP1010-1" -> "KP1010"
"KPC817C" -> "KPC817"
"KPH121S" -> "KPH121"
"KPS2010C" -> "KPS2010"
"KPTR1200" -> "KPTR1200"

Package Extraction Logic

// Check for -1 suffix first
"KPC817C-1" -> "DIP-4"

// KPS series is always SMD
"KPS1010" -> "SMD"

// KPTR series is always SMD
"KPTR1200" -> "SMD"

// Check package indicators for KPC
"KPC817CS" -> "SMD"  // S = SMD
"KPC817CT" -> "SOP"  // T = SOP thin

// Check variant letter for KP/KPH
"KP1010C" -> "SMD"
"KPH121S" -> "SMD"

// Default packages
"KP1010" -> "DIP-4"
"KPC817C" -> "DIP-4"
"KPH121" -> "DIP"

CTR Grade Extraction

// KPC series: letter after 3-digit number
"KPC817A" -> "A"
"KPC817B-1" -> "B"
"KPC817CS" -> "C"  // C is CTR, S is package

Component Types

The handler maps to these ComponentTypes:

| Prefix | ComponentTypes | |--------|----------------| | KP, KPC, KPH, KPS | IC, OPTOCOUPLER_TOSHIBA | | KPTR | IC, SENSOR |

Note: Uses OPTOCOUPLER_TOSHIBA as the generic optocoupler type (historical naming).

Cross-Reference / Equivalents

| Cosmo | Equivalent | Notes | |-------|------------|-------| | KPC817 | Sharp PC817 | Pin-compatible | | KPC817 | Toshiba TLP817 | Pin-compatible | | KPC357 | Sharp PC357 | Darlington output |

Learnings & Edge Cases

CTR grade vs package indicator: For KPC series, the first letter after digits is CTR grade (A-D), subsequent letters may be package indicators (S/G/T). Order matters.
KPS always SMD: The KPS prefix indicates SMD package regardless of any suffix.
KPTR is a sensor: KPTR series are reflective sensors, not optocouplers. They map to SENSOR type.
Channel count from series: 1010/1020 = single, 2010 = dual, 4010 = quad. The first digit often indicates channel count.
Replacement compatibility: Same series with different packages (DIP vs SMD) are not direct replacements due to footprint differences.
