INSULATION MODULE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18537324 titled 'INSULATION MODULE
Simplified Explanation
The insulation module described in the patent application includes a light-emitting element with a pad on its surface, a light-receiving element forming a photocoupler with the light-emitting element, a plate-shaped member between the light-emitting and light-receiving surfaces, and a wire connected to the pad. The pad is positioned off-center towards a section of the light-emitting surface where the distance to the plate-shaped member increases.

Original Abstract Submitted
This insulation module comprises: a light-emitting element that has a light-emitting surface and a pad formed on the light-emitting surface; a light-receiving element that has a light-receiving surface facing the light-emitting surface with a space therebetween, and that constitutes a photocoupler together with the light-emitting element; a plate-shaped member that is provided between the light-emitting surface and the light-receiving surface, has light-transmitting and insulating properties, and is inclined with respect to both the light-emitting surface and the light-receiving surface; and a wire that is connected to the pad. The pad is disposed offset from the center toward a section among the light-emitting surface where the distance to the plate-shaped member increases.
