Pretty sure that the SOT 3 device will be a reverse voltage protection
diode for the opto LED diode. pf caps are not usually termed big ones.
I would ecpect that the charge pump circuitry is on the other side of the
opto.
Cheers,
Peter.

It was described earlier that the charge pump input to the G540 is
capacitively
coupled, and apparently has a large coupling cap. If it is driving the
base of a
BJT with the cap, that would require a pretty big one.
