Product details
Overview
SI82394AB4-IS1R from Skyworks Solutions is a high-side/low-side isolated gate driver IC with single PWM input, 4.0 A peak output drive capability, 6 V output UVLO threshold, enhanced UVLO status feedback, and programmable dead time (40–600 ns). It operates with 2.5–5.5 V input supply (VDDI) and up to 24 V driver supplies, and is used in traction inverters and on-board chargers requiring reinforced isolation and fail-safe startup.
For engineers reviewing the SI82394AB4-IS1R datasheet, SI82394AB4-IS1R pinout, SI82394AB4-IS1R application, or SI82394AB4-IS1R equivalent, this page delivers verified specifications, SOIC-16 narrow-body package details, automotive-grade safety features (AEC-Q100), and real-world design context for motor control and isolated DC-DC systems.
Technical Context
The SI82394AB4-IS1R implements RF-based silicon isolation with a 5 kVRMS withstand voltage and 100 kV/µs CMTI, enabling robust noise immunity in high dv/dt environments like IGBT/MOSFET half-bridge switching. Its single PWM input controls complementary high-side and low-side outputs with integrated deglitch filtering and fail-safe default-low behavior during VDDI power-down.
Startup includes a guaranteed 1 ms safe delayed initialization sequence, while programmable dead time (40–600 ns) prevents shoot-through in bridge configurations. The RDY pin signals output readiness, and EN (active-high) provides system-level fault shutdown independent of input logic states.
Key Specifications

| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si82394BB4-IS1R | 8 V output UVLO threshold; otherwise identical pinout, dead time range, and SOIC-16 NB package. | Better suited for systems using 12–15 V gate drivers where higher UVLO margin is required. | Select when driver supply rails exceed 8 V and tighter UVLO hysteresis is needed to avoid nuisance shutdowns. |

FAQ
What is the isolation rating of the SI82394AB4-IS1R?
The SI82394AB4-IS1R provides 5 kVRMS isolation withstand voltage per UL 1577 and VDE 0884-10, certified for reinforced insulation in IEC62368-1 and GB4943.1-2011 applications. This rating applies across the full operating temperature range and supports continuous operation in high-voltage motor control and EV power systems where galvanic separation is critical for safety and noise rejection.
Does the SI82394AB4-IS1R support bootstrap gate drive configurations?
No, the SI82394AB4-IS1R does not support bootstrap configurations. Its VDDA and VDDB supplies must be independently generated and regulated because the device relies on separate UVLO monitoring for each driver side. Bootstrap circuits introduce shared supply dependencies that conflict with the SI82394AB4-IS1R's independent UVLO architecture and fail-safe behavior.
How is dead time programmed on the SI82394AB4-IS1R?
Dead time on the SI82394AB4-IS1R is set by an external resistor connected between the DT pin and GND2. A value of 10 kΩ yields ~40 ns, while 150 kΩ yields ~600 ns, covering the full 40–600 ns range. The resistor must be placed close to the IC with short traces to minimize parasitic effects, and its value is validated per Table 1.1 and Figure 2.18 in the datasheet.
What happens to the outputs of the SI82394AB4-IS1R during VDDI power loss?
When VDDI falls below its UVLO threshold, the SI82394AB4-IS1R forces both VOA and VOB low within nanoseconds, regardless of PWM or EN state. This fail-safe behavior is inherent to the silicon isolation architecture and ensures power stage safety during controller-side brownouts-a key requirement in ISO 26262-compliant automotive designs.
Is the SI82394AB4-IS1R pin-compatible with other Si8239x variants?
Yes, the SI82394AB4-IS1R shares identical pinout and footprint with all SOIC-16 narrow-body Si8239x variants (e.g., SI82394BB4-IS1R, SI82394CB4-IS1R), including identical power, ground, PWM, EN, RDY, VDDA, VDDB, VOA, VOB, and NC pin assignments. This allows drop-in substitution when only UVLO threshold differs.
