| FFF Compatibility | Matches the exact pinout of the original 6N136 (1: NC, 2: Anode, 3: Cathode, 4: NC, 5: GND, 6: VO, 7: VB, 8: VCC).Matches the standard 8-DIP package size and through-hole mounting configuration.Operating temperature range is slightly narrower (-40°C to 100°C) compared to the original (-55°C to 100°C). | Standard industry-compliant 8-DIP pinout matches the original 6N136 exactly.Identical 8-DIP package physical dimensions and through-hole pitch.Meets or exceeds all performance and safety parameters of the original part, including temperature, voltage, and speed. | ||
6N136 by onsemi: Optoisolator Transistor with Base Output 2500Vrms 1 Channel 8-DIP. | The 6N136M is the direct manufacturer-recommended modern replacement for the obsolete 6N136 from onsemi. It offers a much higher isolation voltage rating of 5000Vrms while preserving identical pinout, electrical parameters, and package style. However, its lower temperature limit is slightly reduced to -40°C compared to -55°C on the original.
| The 6N136-000E from Broadcom is a premier second-source drop-in alternative. It retains the full -55°C to 100°C temperature range of the original onsemi part while providing an upgraded 3750Vrms isolation rating and identical speed and voltage characteristics.

You searched one part. Parter watches your whole BOM.
All your BOM, at once
Parter maps every line to live stock, lead time, lifecycle and compliance data across the entire market — not part by part.
Hear about problems before they hit production
Allocation, EOL and last-time-buy notices surface the moment they appear, not when your buyer's PO bounces.
Qualified replacements in minutes, not days
Every at-risk line gets form-fit-function matches like the ones above — deltas flagged, evidence attached. Review, push to your BOM, and Parter starts watching the new part too.
Frequently asked questions
Yes. The onsemi 6N136 is marked obsolete, so the manufacturer has discontinued it and any remaining supply is limited to distributor stock. The qualified second sources on this page are active parts you can design in today.
The closest qualified second sources for the onsemi 6N136 are the 6N136M (onsemi) and the 6N136-000E (Broadcom Limited), out of 5 matched alternatives in total. Each is compared against the original on fit, form and function in the table above.
Not always. The alternatives to the 6N136 are matched on function but can differ in package, pinout or a key parameter, so review the fit/form/function notes in the table and the datasheet before designing one in.
The 6N136 (onsemi) is a part in the Optocouplers, Optoisolators category. This page lists qualified, cross-referenced replacements for it with a side-by-side comparison.
