❓ FAQ
Q1: Kya yeh 3.3V ESP32 ke saath kaam karta hai?
Yes! The PC817 input works from 3.6V–24V. A 3.3V ESP32 GPIO is slightly below the minimum spec — use a 5V logic signal or add a small pull-up resistor on the input side for reliable triggering.
Q2: Kya main isse relay drive karne ke liye use kar sakta hoon?
Yes, it can directly drive low-power 24V relays. For high-current relays, use the optocoupler output to drive a transistor (e.g., BC547) or MOSFET stage in between.
Q3: Konsi Arduino library chahiye?
No special library needed — use in Arduino IDE. Same standard GPIO functions apply for ESP32.
Q4: Agar signal 4KHz se zyada ho toh kya hoga?
Signals above 4KHz will not switch reliably. For high-frequency PWM, use a dedicated high-speed optocoupler like 6N137 instead.
