Product details
Overview
SI8275AB-IS1R from Skyworks Solutions is a dual-channel isolated gate driver IC designed for high-reliability MOSFET/IGBT/SiC/GaN FET control in power conversion systems. It delivers 4 A peak output current per channel, supports 4.2–30 V driver supply, features dual independent digital inputs (VIA/VIB), and provides 2.5 kVRMS isolation with 200 kV/µs CMTI - used in half-bridge motor drives and solar inverters.
For engineers reviewing the SI8275AB-IS1R datasheet, SI8275AB-IS1R pinout, SI8275AB-IS1R application, or SI8275AB-IS1R equivalent, this page delivers verified electrical specs, SOIC-16 pin mapping, automotive-grade AEC-Q100 qualification, UVLO behavior, and real-world dual-driver use cases - all confirmed from Skyworks' official Si827x family datasheet (Rev. 206327E).
Technical Context
The SI8275AB-IS1R implements two independent RF-based isolation channels using Skyworks' proprietary silicon isolation barrier, each with separate input-to-output signal paths and dedicated undervoltage lockout (UVLO) on both input (VDDI) and output (VDDA/VDDB) supplies. It operates without initialization and maintains output low-state safety during UVLO faults.
Unlike PWM-input variants (e.g., Si8274), SI8275AB-IS1R uses two discrete TTL-compatible logic inputs (VIA/VIB) with >400 mV hysteresis and no dead-time programming - enabling fully independent high-side and low-side gate control without overlap risk. Its dual-driver architecture supports asymmetric topologies where each output can drive separate power stages referenced to different grounds.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Isolation Withstand Voltage | 2.5 kVRMS per UL1577 - enables reinforced insulation in 1000 VAC mains-connected systems |
| Peak Output Current | 4 A per channel - sufficient to directly drive high-gate-charge SiC FETs (e.g., 100 nC Qg) at 100 kHz |
| Propagation Delay | 60 ns max - ensures tight timing control in high-frequency LLC resonant converters |
| CMTI | 200 kV/µs - prevents false triggering in fast-switching 1700 V IGBT modules with di/dt > 5 kA/µs |
| Supply Range | VDDI: 2.5–5.5 V; VDDA/VDDB: 4.2–30 V - supports direct interface with 3.3 V microcontrollers and 15 V gate drive rails |
| Operating Temperature | –40 to +125 °C - qualified for under-hood automotive traction inverter gate drive |
| Jitter | 200 ps p-p - minimizes timing uncertainty in synchronized multi-phase interleaved PFC designs |
Pinout & Package
SI8275AB-IS1R is housed in a 16-pin wide-body SOIC package (SOIC-16WB) with creepage/clearance compliant for reinforced isolation. Pin assignments follow Skyworks' Si8273/75 layout (Table 2, datasheet Rev. 206327E).
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 1, 2 | VIA / VIB | Independent TTL-compatible logic inputs - control VOA and VOB separately; >400 mV hysteresis rejects noise on PCB traces |
| 3, 8 | VDDI | Input-side power supply - powers isolation transmitter; must be decoupled with 0.1 µF + 10 µF near pins |
| 4 | GNDI | Input-side ground reference - forms isolation barrier boundary; must be separated from driver-side ground planes |
| 5 | EN | Active-high enable - forces both outputs low when deasserted; critical for safe shutdown in fault conditions |
| 9, 11 | GNDB / GNDA | Driver-side ground returns - separate pins per channel allow independent ground referencing up to 1500 V differential |
| 10, 12 | VOB / VOA | Gate drive outputs - push-pull structure with 1.0 Ω ROL / 2.7 Ω ROH enables <20 ns rise/fall into 1 nF load |
| 14, 16 | VDDB / VDDA | Driver-side power supplies - each powers its respective output stage; UVLO monitoring prevents operation below 4.2 V |
| 6, 7, 13 | NC | No-connect pins - electrically isolated; must remain unconnected per datasheet Table 2 |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Dual independent gate drivers | Enables asymmetric half-bridge or dual independent switch control without shared timing constraints |
| Separate pull-up/pull-down outputs | Allows external slew-rate control via gate resistors - critical for EMI reduction in Class D amplifiers |
| Per-channel UVLO monitoring | VDDA and VDDB each have independent UVLO - prevents partial drive failure in split-rail gate supply designs |
| AEC-Q100 Grade 1 qualification | Validated for automotive applications including onboard chargers and battery management systems |
| 200 kV/µs CMTI | Ensures reliable operation in high-dV/dt environments like 1200 V SiC inverter legs switching at 100 kHz |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar dual isolated gate driver applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Si8275AD-IS1R | Same pinout and specs, but includes internal deglitch circuit (15 ns added propagation delay) | Better noise immunity in high-EMI factory automation environments; slightly higher timing uncertainty | Select when system-level noise exceeds 100 V/ns on control lines - otherwise SI8275AB-IS1R preferred for timing-critical apps |
| UCC5390SCDR | Texas Instruments part; 4 A peak, SOIC-16, but only 1.5 kVRMS isolation and 100 kV/µs CMTI | Limited to industrial UPS and non-automotive inverters; lacks AEC-Q100 qualification | Choose for cost-sensitive non-automotive designs where 2.5 kVRMS and 200 kV/µs CMTI are not required |
Compared with SI8275AB-IS1R, Si8275AD-IS1R trades 15 ns added delay for enhanced noise rejection, while UCC5390SCDR offers lower isolation and CMTI at reduced cost - making SI8275AB-IS1R optimal for automotive and high-reliability solar applications demanding full AEC-Q100 compliance and maximum transient immunity.
