Abstract
An optical isolator is fabricated upon a lead frame having an LED section which is rotated 180.degree. to position the LED over the photodiode. Prior to rotation both the LED and the photodiode attachment portions of the leads are down set a predetermined amount to fix the size of the isolation gap between the LED and the photodiode. Dielectric sheets are attached to the outer surfaces of the LED and photodiode leads and an optically transmissive resin is injected therebetween to form a light guide and to encapsulate the LED and photodiode dice and their associated bond wires. In an alternate embodiment a sheet is attached to the outer surface of one lead and a dielectric sheet thereagainst is positioned at a tilted angle between the LED and the photodiode.
