Product details
Overview
SI82391CB-AS1R from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel isolated gate driver IC designed for high-side/low-side MOSFET and IGBT control in automotive and industrial power converters. It delivers 4.0 A peak output current, operates with 2.5 V–5.5 V input supply (VDDI), supports up to 5 kVRMS isolation, and features enhanced output UVLO with 12 V threshold, programmable dead time (10–200 ns), and fail-safe low-default outputs during VDDI power-down - used in traction inverters and on-board chargers.
For engineers reviewing the SI82391CB-AS1R datasheet, SI82391CB-AS1R pinout, SI82391CB-AS1R application, or SI82391CB-AS1R equivalent, key selection considerations include its AEC-Q100 qualification, SOIC-16 wide-body package, independent VIA/VIB inputs, absence of UVLO status pin, and compatibility with isolated DC-DC supplies requiring robust CMTI (>100 kV/µs) and safe startup timing.
Technical Context
The SI82391CB-AS1R implements RF-based silicon isolation with two independent isolated channels, each featuring TTL-compatible high-true inputs (VIA, VIB), separate driver-side supplies (VDDA, VDDB), and fail-safe logic that forces both outputs low when VDDI is unpowered. Its architecture avoids optocoupler limitations while enabling precise timing control via programmable dead time and deglitch filtering.
It integrates enhanced UVLO monitoring per output stage (12 V threshold), automatic shutdown on UVLO detection, and an active-high EN pin with internal ESD protection. Startup includes a guaranteed 1 ms delayed initialization sequence to ensure monotonic output behavior before controller handoff - critical for transformer-coupled topologies where flux imbalance must be avoided.

FAQ
What is the isolation voltage rating of the SI82391CB-AS1R?
The SI82391CB-AS1R is rated for 5 kVRMS isolation withstand voltage per UL 1577 and VDE 0884-10 standards. This reinforced insulation rating applies across the full operating temperature range (–40 °C to +125 °C) and supports compliance with IEC62368-1 for end-equipment safety certification in automotive and industrial applications.
Does the SI82391CB-AS1R support bootstrap gate drive configurations?
No - the SI82391CB-AS1R is not recommended for bootstrap configurations because its enhanced UVLO feedback mechanism requires independent VDDA and VDDB supplies. Using a shared or bootstrapped supply may cause false UVLO triggering and unintended output disablement. It is intended for transformer-isolated or separately regulated driver rails.
What is the purpose of the EN pin on the SI82391CB-AS1R?
The EN (enable) pin on the SI82391CB-AS1R is an active-high control input that unconditionally forces both VOA and VOB low when deasserted. It provides system-level fault response capability - for example, interfacing with MCU watchdog timers or hardware fault monitors to safely shut down power stages during overtemperature or overcurrent events.
How does the SI82391CB-AS1R handle undervoltage conditions on VDDI?
When VDDI falls below its UVLO threshold, the SI82391CB-AS1R enters a fail-safe state where both VOA and VOB are actively driven low regardless of input states. This behavior persists until VDDI rises above the UVLO+ threshold and the 1 ms delayed startup timer completes - ensuring glitch-free initialization in automotive power systems.
Is the SI82391CB-AS1R pin-compatible with other Si8239x variants?
Yes - the SI82391CB-AS1R shares identical pinout and package (SOIC-16 wide-body) with all other Si8239x devices in the same package variant, including SI82390xx, SI82393xx, and SI82394xx families. Functional differences (e.g., UVLO status pin presence, dead-time range, deglitch option) are implemented internally and do not affect mechanical or electrical pin compatibility.
